Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Area under the plasma concentration-time curves (AUC0-inf, AUC0-24, AUC0-last) for metamizole and its metabolites in plasma and saliva

    Time points of evaluation of these PK parameters: sampling at 1, 2, 4, 6, 10 and 24 hours after single IV metamizole dose.

    0- 24 hours

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) for metamizole and its metabolites in plasma and saliva

    0- 24 hours

  • Time to reach Cmax (tmax) for metamizole and its metabolites in plasma and saliva

    0- 24 hours

  • Terminal elimination rate constant with respective half-life time (t½) for metamizole and its metabolites in plasma and saliva

    0- 24 hours

  • Incidence of adverse events (AEs)

    0- 24 hours

  • Correlation between metamizole and its metabolites in saliva and plasma

    0- 24 hours

Study Arms (1)

metamizole

EXPERIMENTAL

single IV metamizole (10mg/kg) administration

Drug: Metamizole

Interventions

metamizole IV administration

Also known as: Novalgin
metamizole

Eligibility Criteria

Age3 Months - 72 Months
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Children undergoing elective surgery at University of Basel Children's Hospital (UKBB) with planned administration of intravenous analgesia
  • Patients who require surgical procedures that necessitate at least 24 hours in the hospital
  • Parent/Legal guardian has been informed about the study and has signed Informed Consent Form

You may not qualify if:

  • Infants and children who were born prematurely (before 37 weeks gestation), regardless of corrected gestational age
  • Known kidney or liver disease
  • Known neutropenia, anemia or other hematological disorders
  • Known diagnosis of asthma
  • Ongoing immunosuppression, except corticosteroid treatment, or primary immunodeficiency
  • Treatment with strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP2C19 within 3 months prior to study
  • Treatment with drugs known to induce agranulocytosis within 3 months prior to study
  • Documented previous adverse reaction to metamizole
  • Treatment with metamizole within 30 days prior to screening
  • Any concomitant condition, which in the opinion of the investigator would preclude a subject's participation in the study
  • Family members of investigators
