Paracan IV is an intravenous (IV) injection that contains paracetamol (also known as acetaminophen). It's commonly used for: 1. Pain Relief: • Post-operative pain: Helps manage pain following surgeries. • Headaches: Effective for treating mild to moderate headaches. • Muscle and joint pain: Used for muscle strains, back pain, or arthritis pain. • Other pain types: Such as toothaches, menstrual cramps, and nerve pain. 2. Fever Reduction: • Paracan IV is used to reduce fever in cases of infections, inflammation, or after surgical procedures. How It Works: Paracan IV works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins (chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation). This provides both pain relief (analgesic effect) and fever reduction (antipyretic effect). Administration: Paracan IV is given through an intravenous (IV) line, typically in a hospital or clinical setting. The dosage depends on the patient's condition, but it's commonly administered when oral medication is not an option. Side Effects: While generally safe when used as directed, it can cause side effects, such as: • Headaches • Nausea or vomiting • Injection site reactions (pain, redness, or swelling) If you experience severe allergic reactions (e.g., difficulty breathing, swelling), immediate medical attention is required. Precautions: Before use, inform your healthcare provider if you have: • Liver or kidney disease • Alcohol use disorder • Allergies to paracetamol or any components of the injection Always use under medical supervision, especially for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Nor-ADR Injection is a brand of Noradrenaline (Norepinephrine) Bitartrate Injection, manufactured by American Remedies. It is primarily used in critical care settings to manage severe hypotension (low blood pressure) and shock. ________________________________________ ✅ Primary Uses Nor-ADR Injection is indicated for: • Septic Shock: A life-threatening condition caused by severe infection leading to dangerously low blood pressure. • Cardiogenic Shock: A state where the heart is unable to pump sufficient blood to meet the body's needs. Anaphylactic Shock: A severe allergic reaction causing a sudden drop in blood pressure. • Hypotension During Surgery or Trauma: To maintain adequate blood pressure during and after surgical procedures or traumatic events. • Cardiac Arrest: As an adjunct in the management of cardiac arrest to improve blood flow to vital organs. These indications are supported by clinical guidelines and pharmacological references. ________________________________________ ⚙️ Mechanism of Action Noradrenaline is a potent vasopressor that works by: Alpha-1 Adrenergic Receptor Activation: Causing vasoconstriction, which increases systemic vascular resistance and raises blood pressure. • Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptor Activation: Increasing heart rate and myocardial contractility, thereby enhancing cardiac output. This dual action helps restore blood pressure and improve perfusion to vital organs in shock states. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Precautions and Side Effects Precautions: • Administration: Should be administered intravenously under strict medical supervision, typically in an intensive care unit (ICU) setting. • Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of blood pressure and heart rate is essential during administration. • Contraindications: Should not be used in patients with mesenteric or peripheral vascular thrombosis unless absolutely necessary. Common Side Effects: • Hypertension (high blood pressure) • Headache Nausea • Anxiety • Dizziness Serious Side Effects: • Arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats) • Tissue necrosis at the injection site • Reduced renal perfusion leading to renal failure Immediate medical attention is required if any serious side effects occur.
