Antigrippin ANVI, capsules 20 pcs

Pharmacological action – antipyretic, analgesic, analgesic, antihistamine, angioprotective, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory.

Antigrippin ANVI is a drug of combined composition.

Acetylsalicylic acid is an analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory agent; inhibits platelet aggregation.

Ascorbic acid plays an important role in the regulation of redox processes, carbohydrate metabolism, blood coagulation, tissue regeneration, helps improve the body’s resistance.

Rutoside (rutin) is an angioprotector. It reduces capillary permeability, reduces swelling and inflammation, strengthens the vascular wall. Inhibits aggregation and increases the degree of deformation of red blood cells.

Sodium metamizole has analgesic, antipyretic and mild anti-inflammatory action, whose mechanism is associated with inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis.

Diphenhydramine has anti-allergic and anti-edema effects. It reduces vascular permeability, eliminates nasal mucous membrane edema and hyperemia, sore throat and manifestations of allergic reactions in the upper respiratory tract.

Calcium gluconate is a regulator of calcium and phosphorus metabolism, it has anti-allergic effect (mechanism is not clear), reduces vascular permeability. In allergic diseases or conditions its combined use with antihistamines is recommended.

How to take, the dosage

The drug is prescribed to adults and adolescents over 15 years of age 2 capsules per administration: 1 green capsule and 1 white capsule.

The duration of use is 3-5 days until the symptoms disappear.

The capsules are taken orally 2-3 times a day after a meal with water.

Patients should be told that if they do not feel better, the medication should be stopped and they should see a doctor.

Interaction

The effect of heparin, indirect anticoagulants, reserpine, steroid hormones and hypoglycemic drugs in concomitant use with Antigrippin-ANVI is increased.

The efficacy of spironolactone, furosemide, antihypertensive and uricosuric agents is reduced when used concomitantly with Antigrippin-AANVI.

Antigrippin-ANVI increases the adverse reactions of GCS, sulfonylurea derivatives, methotrexate, non-narcotic analgesics and NSAIDs.

In concomitant use of Antigrippin-ANVI with barbiturates, antiepileptics, zidovudine, rifampicin and ethanol-containing drugs the risk of hepatotoxic effects increases. These combinations should be avoided.

Ascorbic acid improves intestinal absorption of iron preparations.

Tricyclic antidepressants, oral contraceptives and allopurinol impair metabolism of metamizole in the liver and increase its toxicity.

Sodium metamizole increases the effects of alcoholic beverages.

The concomitant use of sodium metamizole with cyclosporine reduces the plasma level of the latter.

Concomitant use of sodium metamizole with thiamazole and melphalan increases the risk of leukopenia.

Sedatives and tranquilizers increase the analgesic effect of sodium metamizole.

Rentgen contrast agents, colloidal blood substitutes and penicillin should not be used during the use of sodium metamizole.

Special Instructions

Long-term use of the drug requires monitoring of peripheral blood count and laboratory indicators of liver function.

As acetylsalicylic acid has an antiplatelet effect, the patient, if he/she is to undergo surgery, should warn the physician about taking the drug in advance.

Acetylsalicylic acid at low doses reduces uric acid excretion, which can sometimes lead to gout attacks.

Patients should avoid alcoholic beverages while taking this medication because of the increased risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.

Acetylsalicylic acid has teratogenic effect: when used in the first trimester of pregnancy it causes development of cleft palate; in the third trimester it leads to premature closure of the fetal arterial duct, causing pulmonary hyperplasia and hypertension in the vasculature circulation, and to inhibition of labor activity (because of inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis).

Acetylsalicylic acid is excreted with breast milk, which increases the risk of bleeding in the baby due to platelet dysfunction.

Because of the stimulating effect of ascorbic acid on the synthesis of corticosteroid hormones, renal function and BP should be monitored.

Prescribing ascorbic acid to patients with rapidly proliferating and intensely metastatic tumors may worsen the course of the process.

As a reducing agent, ascorbic acid can distort the results of various laboratory tests (determination of glucose, bilirubin, and plasma “liver” transaminases and LDH activity).

In patients with bronchial asthma and pollinosis, when taking the drug, hypersensitivity reactions may develop.

Impact on driving and operating machinery

When using the drug, one should refrain from performing potentially hazardous activities requiring increased attention and quick psychomotor reactions.

Contraindications

With caution: the drug is prescribed in cases of hyperuricemia, urate nephrolithiasis, gout, peptic ulcer (in anamnesis), decompensated heart failure.

Treatment:

Pregnancy use

The drug is contraindicated for use during pregnancy. If it is necessary to prescribe during lactation, breastfeeding should be stopped for the period of using the drug.

Acetylsalicylic acid has teratogenic effect: when used in the first trimester of pregnancy it causes development of cleft palate; in the third trimester it leads to premature closure of the fetal arterial duct, causing pulmonary hyperplasia and hypertension in the vasculature circulation, and to inhibition of labor activity (because of inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis).

Acetylsalicylic acid is excreted with breast milk, which increases the risk of bleeding in the baby due to platelet dysfunction.

Preventive use in children

It is contraindicated in children and adolescents under 15 years of age. The drug is not used as an antipyretic in children under 15 years of age with acute respiratory viral diseases due to the risk of Reye syndrome (encephalopathy and acute fatty liver dystrophy with acute development of liver failure).
