Ibuklin Junior is a combination drug based on paracetamol and ibuprofen. Has complex therapeutic activity. Widely used to treat infectious and inflammatory pathologies, and also helps relieve pain and fever. Intended for oral administration to patients of various age categories.
pharmachologic effect
The therapeutic property of the drug lies in its unique composition.
Due to the content of Ibuprofen, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic effects are noted. It suppresses the production of certain receptors, helping to reduce the production of prostaglandins, which are responsible for the development of pain, inflammation and hyperemia.
Paracetamol in Ibuklin Junior has a slight effect on the mucous surface of the digestive tract and water-salt metabolism. It has a pronounced analgesic and antipyretic effect.
The drug is characterized by a high degree of adsorption. The maximum concentration of medicinal substances is achieved 30-60 minutes after application.
Excretion is carried out primarily by the kidneys, and a small amount is excreted in bile.

Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics A combined drug whose effect is determined by its constituent components. Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects. By inhibiting cycloxygenase (COX) 1 and 2, it disrupts the metabolism of arachidonic acid, reduces the amount of prostaglandins (mediators of pain, inflammation and hyperthermic reaction), both in the site of inflammation and in healthy tissues, suppresses the exudative and proliferative phases of inflammation. Paracetamol - indiscriminately blocks COX, mainly in the central nervous system, has little effect on water-salt metabolism and the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Has an analgesic and antipyretic effect. In inflamed tissues, peroxidases neutralize the effect of paracetamol on COX 1 and 2, which explains the low anti-inflammatory effect. The effectiveness of the combination is higher than that of individual components. Relieves arthralgia at rest and during movement, reduces morning stiffness and swelling of joints, and helps increase range of motion.
Pharmacokinetics
Ibuprofen. Absorption is high, quickly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). The time to reach maximum concentration (TCmax) after oral administration is about 1-2 hours. Communication with blood plasma proteins is more than 90%. The half-life (T1/2) is about 2 hours. It slowly penetrates into the joint cavity, accumulates in the synovial fluid, creating higher concentrations in it than in the blood plasma. After absorption, about 60% of the pharmacologically inactive R-form is slowly transformed into the active S-form. Metabolized. More than 90% is excreted by the kidneys (no more than 1% unchanged) and, to a lesser extent, with bile in the form of metabolites and their conjugates.
Paracetamol. Absorption is high, binding to plasma proteins is less than 10% and increases slightly with overdose. Sulfate and glucuronide metabolites do not bind to plasma proteins even at relatively high concentrations. The Cmax value is 5-20 μg/ml, TCmax is 0.5-2 hours. Distributed fairly evenly in body fluids. Penetrates the blood-brain barrier. About 90-95% of paracetamol is metabolized in the liver to form inactive conjugates with glucuronic acid (60%), taurine (35%) and cysteine (3%), as well as a small amount of hydroxylated and deacetylated metabolites. A small portion of the drug is hydroxylated by microsomal enzymes to form highly active N-acetyl-n-benzoquinone imine, which binds to the sulfhydryl groups of glutathione. When glutathione reserves in the liver are depleted (in case of overdose), the enzyme systems of hepatocytes can be blocked, leading to the development of their necrosis. T1/2 – 2-3 hours. In patients with liver cirrhosis, T1/2 increases slightly. In elderly patients, drug clearance decreases and T1/2 increases. It is excreted by the kidneys mainly in the form of glucuronide and sulfate conjugates (less than 5% unchanged). Less than 1% of the administered dose of paracetamol passes into breast milk. In children, the ability to form conjugates with glucuronic acid is lower than in adults.

Method of administration and dosage regimen The drug is taken orally. Before use, Ibuklin ® tablet should be dissolved in 5 ml (1 teaspoon) of water. The daily dose of the drug is taken in 2-3 doses. The minimum time interval between taking the drug is 4 hours.
Children over 3 years of age Single dose – 1 tablet. The daily dose depends on the age and weight of the child: 3-6 years (13-20 kg) – 3 tablets per day; 6–12 years (20–40 kg) – up to 6 tablets per day. In case of impaired renal or liver function, the interval between doses of the drug should be at least 8 hours. The drug should not be taken for more than 5 days as an analgesic and for more than 3 days as an antipyretic without medical supervision.
Precautions for use : Chronic heart failure, cerebrovascular disease, dyslipidemia/hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, peripheral arterial disease, smoking, creatinine clearance less than 60 ml/min, history of ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract, presence of Helicobacter pylori infection, long-term use of NSAIDs, alcoholism , severe somatic diseases, simultaneous use of oral glucocorticosteroids (including prednisone), anticoagulants (including warfarin), antiplatelet agents (including acetylsalicylic acid, clopidogrel), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (including citalopram, fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline).
Use during pregnancy and lactation If it is necessary to use the drug Ibuklin ® during pregnancy and lactation (breastfeeding), you should carefully weigh the expected benefits of therapy for the mother and the potential risk for the fetus or child. If use is necessary, long-term use of Ibukli ® should be avoided in the 1st trimester of pregnancy. If short-term use of the drug Ibuklin ® is necessary during lactation, cessation of breastfeeding is usually not required. Experimental studies have not established the embryotoxic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects of the components of the drug Ibuklin ®.
Symptoms of overdose, measures to assist in case of overdose Symptoms: gastrointestinal disorders (abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, anorexia, epigastric pain), increased prothrombin time, bleeding after 12-48 hours, lethargy, drowsiness, depression , headache, tinnitus, impaired consciousness, heart rhythm disturbances, decreased blood pressure, symptoms of hepato- and nephrotoxicity, convulsions, possible development of hepatonecrosis. Treatment: gastric lavage during the first 4 hours; alkaline drinking, forced diuresis; activated carbon orally, administration of SH-group donors and precursors for the synthesis of glutathione - methionine 8-9 hours after an overdose and N-acetylcysteine orally or intravenously - after 12 hours, antacid drugs; hemodialysis; symptomatic therapy. The need for additional therapeutic measures (further administration of methionine, intravenous administration of N-acetylcysteine) is determined depending on the concentration of paracetamol in the blood, as well as on the time elapsed after its administration.
Possible side effects In therapeutic doses, the drug is usually well tolerated. From the digestive system: rarely - dyspeptic symptoms, with long-term use in high doses - hepatotoxic effect. From the hematopoietic system: rarely - thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, pancytopenia, neutropenia, agranulocytosis. Allergic reactions: rarely - skin rash, itching, urticaria. If side effects occur, you should stop taking the drug and consult a doctor.
Interaction with other drugs and (or) food products When using the drug Ibuklin ® simultaneously with drugs, various interaction effects may develop. Long-term combined use with paracetamol increases the risk of nephrotoxic effects. Combination with ethanol, glucocorticosteroids, corticotropin increases the risk of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract. Ibuprofen enhances the effect of direct (heparin) and indirect (coumarin and indanedione derivatives) anticoagulants, thrombolytic agents (alteplase, anistreplase, streptokinase, urokinase), antiplatelet agents, colchicine - the risk of developing hemorrhagic complications increases. Enhances the hypoglycemic effect of insulin and oral hypoglycemic drugs. Weakens the effects of antihypertensive drugs and diuretics (by inhibiting the synthesis of renal prostaglandins). increases the blood concentration of digoxin, lithium and methotrexate. Caffeine enhances the analgesic effect of ibuprofen. Cyclosporine and gold preparations increase nephrotoxicity. Cefamandole, cefoperazone, cefotetan, valproic acid, plicamycin increase the incidence of hypoprothrombinemia. Antacids and cholestyramine reduce the absorption of the drug. Myelotoxic drugs contribute to the manifestation of hematotoxicity of the drug.
Special instructions The advisability of using the drug as an antipyretic is decided in each case, depending on the severity, nature and tolerability of the febrile syndrome. Ibuprofen may mask objective signs of infectious diseases, so ibuprofen therapy in patients with infectious diseases should be prescribed with caution. To reduce the risk of developing adverse events from the gastrointestinal tract, the minimum effective dose should be used for the shortest possible short course. With the simultaneous use of indirect anticoagulants, it is necessary to monitor the indicators of the blood coagulation system. Co-administration of Ibuklin ® with other NSAIDs should be avoided. With long-term (more than 5 days) use of the drug, monitoring of peripheral blood and the functional state of the liver is necessary. The drug may distort the results of laboratory tests when quantitatively determining glucose, uric acid in blood serum, and 17-ketosteroids (the drug must be discontinued 48 hours before the test).
Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and machinery During the treatment period, the patient should refrain from engaging in potentially hazardous activities that require increased attention and speed of psychomotor reactions.
