special instructions
During treatment it is recommended:

- Exercise caution when driving a car and engaging in other activities that require quick reactions and increased concentration.
Drug interactions
Antidepressants, m-anticholinergics and cholestyramine can reduce the absorption of Novalgin's components.
Paracetamol reduces the effect of uricosuric drugs, and taken in high doses, increases the effect of anticoagulants.
Ethanol, hepatotoxic agents and inducers of liver microsomal enzymes increase the production of hydroxylated metabolites of paracetamol, as a result of which the risk of severe intoxication increases even with a small overdose.
Myelotoxic agents increase the hematotoxicity of paracetamol.
With the simultaneous use of barbiturates for a long time, the effectiveness of paracetamol decreases.
When interacting with inducers of microsomal liver enzymes, metabolism increases and the clearance of caffeine increases; with inhibitors of liver microsomal enzymes - the metabolism of caffeine in the liver decreases.
Nicotine increases the rate of caffeine excretion, mexiletine significantly reduces its excretion (up to 50%).
Large doses of caffeine taken while using furazolidone, procarbazine, selegiline or monoamine oxidase inhibitors can cause a marked increase in blood pressure and dangerous arrhythmias.
Also keep in mind that caffeine:
- Accelerates the excretion of lithium preparations in the urine;
- Reduces the absorption of calcium preparations from the gastrointestinal tract;
- Accelerates absorption and enhances the action of cardiac glycosides and increases their toxicity;
- Reduces the effectiveness of sleeping pills and narcotic drugs;
- Reduces the clearance of theophylline and, presumably, other xanthines, which increases the risk of developing additive toxic and pharmacodynamic effects.
In the case of the simultaneous use of caffeine with β-adrenergic agonists, there is a possibility of additional stimulation of the central nervous system and the development of other additive toxic effects; with β-blockers - mutual suppression of therapeutic effects is possible.
Propifenazone can enhance the ulcerogenic effect of glucocorticosteroids, the effect of sulfa drugs, oral hypoglycemic agents and anticoagulants; reduce the effectiveness of potassium-sparing diuretics.
