1
Chlorphenamine
UNII V1Q0O9OJ9Z - CHLORPHENIRAMINE MALEATE
|
Chlorphenamine is a potent antihistamine (H1-antagonist). Antihistamines diminish or abolish the actions of histamine in the body by competitive reversible blockade of histamine H1-receptor sites on tissues. Chlorphenamine also has anticholinergic activity. |
2
Metamizole sodium
UNII 6429L0L52Y - DIPYRONE
|
Metamizole sodium is a pyrazolone derivative with analgesic, antipyretic and slight antiinflammatory and spasmolytic properties. It has the most potent analgesic effect of all the pyrazolone derivatives. As with other analgesics, its mechanism of action has not been elucidated in detail. It includes inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis (PGE1 and PGE2) and reversible inhibition of platelet aggregation. It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase and influences the effect of arachidonic acid. |
3
Vitamin C
UNII PQ6CK8PD0R - ASCORBIC ACID
|
Ascorbic acid, coupled with dehydroascorbic acid to which it is reversibly oxidised, has a variety of functions in cellular oxidation processes. Ascorbic acid is required in several important hydroxylations, including the conversion of proline to hydroxyproline and appears to have an important role in metal ion metabolism, including the gastrointestinal absorption of iron and its transport between plasma and storage organs. |
