Indications & Clinical Uses

Metamizol Basi is used for conditions where rapid analgesic or antipyretic control is required.

  • Pain: Provides analgesic relief for moderate to severe acute pain.
  • Fever: Reduces elevated body temperature in febrile states.
  • Post‑operative analgesia: Controls pain and fever after surgical procedures.

How It Works

  • Metamizole inhibits cyclooxygenase‑mediated prostaglandin synthesis, reducing peripheral sensitisation, while also exerting central analgesic activity through modulation of spinal pain pathways, resulting in combined analgesic and antipyretic effects.

Side Effects

Metamizol Basi may be associated with a range of adverse reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Injection site pain: Discomfort at the site of administration.
  • Nausea: Mild to moderate feeling of queasiness.

  • Rash: Mild skin erythema.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Agranulocytosis: Severe reduction in white blood cells.
  • Anaphylaxis: Immediate hypersensitivity reaction.
  • Stevens‑Johnson syndrome: Severe mucocutaneous eruption.
  • Hepatotoxicity: Liver enzyme elevation or injury.
  • Hemolytic anemia: Destruction of red blood cells.

Precautions & Warnings

When using Metamizol Basi, consider the following safety measures.

  • Indication review: Confirm appropriate use for pain or fever.
  • Blood monitoring: Periodic complete blood counts to detect agranulocytosis.
  • Allergy assessment: Screen for known hypersensitivity to pyrazolones.
  • Pregnancy and lactation: Use only if benefits outweigh potential risks.
  • Renal/hepatic function: Adjust use in patients with organ impairment.
  • Store below 25°C: Keep in original container, protect from light and moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions

The specific dose and administration schedule of Metamizol Basi are determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s condition, weight, and clinical response. No standard dosing is provided here.

Safety data for Metamizole in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It should only be used when the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus or infant, and the decision must be made by a qualified healthcare professional.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity.

Metamizole offers analgesic and antipyretic effects similar to NSAIDs but with a lower incidence of gastrointestinal irritation. However, it carries a rare risk of agranulocytosis, which is less common with many other analgesic classes, so risk‑benefit assessment is essential.

Metamizol Basi should be stored below 25 °C, in its original packaging, protected from light and moisture. Do not freeze the product, and keep it out of reach of children.

The medication is supplied as a sterile injectable solution and may be given intramuscularly or intravenously by a qualified healthcare professional, following aseptic technique and appropriate dilution if required.

The most serious adverse reactions include agranulocytosis, anaphylactic shock, Stevens‑Johnson syndrome, and severe liver injury. Immediate medical attention is required if signs of these conditions appear.

Patients with known hypersensitivity to pyrazolones, a history of agranulocytosis, severe liver or kidney impairment, or those receiving concurrent myelosuppressive therapy should avoid Metamizol Basi unless specifically directed by a physician.
