Calmirex solution 2.5mg/ml+100mg/ml ampoules, 10pcs

Composition

of 1 amp. : Tolperisone hydrochloride-100 mglidocaine hydrochloride-2.5 mgcompetitive substances: methyl parahydroxybenzoate-0.6 mg, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether-0.3 ml, concentrated hydrochloric acid-up to pH 3.0-4.5, d/i water – up to 1 ml

Pharmacological action

Tolperisone hydrochloride is a central-acting muscle relaxant. It has a membrane-stabilizing, local anesthetic effect, inhibits the conduction of nerve impulses in primary afferent fibers and motor neurons, which leads to blocking of spinal mono – and polysynaptic reflexes.

It probably mediates the blocking of the release of mediators by inhibiting the entry of calcium ions into synapses. Inhibits the conduction of excitation along the reticulospinal pathway in the brain stem.

Regardless of its effect on the central nervous system, it increases peripheral blood flow. A weak antispasmodic and antiadrenergic effect of Tolperisone may play a role in the development of this effect.

Lidocaine hydrochloride has a local anesthetic effect and does not have a systemic effect when dosed according to the instructions.

Indications

— rehabilitation treatment after orthopedic and trauma surgery.

As part of complex therapy:

— with obliterating vascular diseases (obliterating atherosclerosis, diabetic angiopathy, obliterating thrombangiitis, Raynaud’s disease, diffuse scleroderma);

— with diseases that occur on the basis of vascular innervation disorders (acrocyanosis, intermittent angioedema).

Interaction

There are no data on drug interactions limiting the use of Calmirex®.

Although Tolperisone has an effect on the central nervous system, the drug does not cause sedation, so it can be used in combination with sedatives, sleeping pills and drugs containing ethanol.

It does not enhance the effect of ethanol on the central nervous system.

Increases the effect of NSAIDs, so when used simultaneously, it may be necessary to reduce the dose of the latter.
