Pharmacological effect

Pentalgin is a combination medicine that has anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, analgesic and antispasmodic action.
    Paracetamol is an antipyretic and analgesic substance, the action of which is caused by inhibition of cyclooxygenase in the central nervous system and a direct effect on the centers of thermoregulation and pain in the hypothalamus.
    Naproxen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug with pronounced antipyretic and analgesic properties.

    Drotaverine has a myotropic antispasmodic effect, which is caused by the suppression of the activity of the enzyme phosphodiesterase-4.
    Caffeine stimulates the expansion of blood vessels in the heart, kidneys and skeletal muscles, improves physical endurance and mental performance, eliminates drowsiness and fatigue, and also increases the bioavailability of non-narcotic painkillers. It tones the vessels of the brain.

Reviews

We picked up some reviews of people using the drug Pentalgin:
Dmitriy
    Honestly, I can not stand to drink pills. I always try to defeat the pain of folk remedies. But not a headache. My head hurts so much that even climb the wall. Tablets Analgin and Tsitramona do not save me at all, as if they did not drink. Now with a headache, I am saved by Pentalgin. He helps me well. Always keep it in the first-aid kit and in the car just in case.
Anfisa
    Pentalgin saved me from a wild headache when I was on a field trip in a foreign city. Looks from a long road and nerves headache, so much so that did not want to live, not to mention the fact that walking and seeing the sights. So I went on the way to the pharmacy, measured the pressure, it turned out to be normal and I was given Pentalgin, I drank one pill and came back 20 minutes later, life turned out to be beautiful, the city was beautiful)))
Denis
    Good drug. I have been using it for a long time and it is always with me. I even wanted to write what is great, but no. I agree with the above, yes, it is addictive and the effect gradually decreases, but if you take it with a fool every day, as I did before, it hurts a little, then immediately after it. You shouldn't do this! Now I accept only in case of acute pain, and I stopped drinking for nothing, and he is not cheap either. I can say one thing, as an emergency remedy for pain is the very thing.
