Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluate the efficacy of antivenom as a pain treatment by the visual analogue scale of pain in poisoning by scorpion stings.

    Comparison of venom metabolism in patients valued at 18 hours with Visual Analog Scales (VAS) valued from 0 to 10

    18 hours after drugs in study

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluate the analgesic efficacy of clonixinate of lysine, ketorolac and sodium metamizol, by the visual analogue scale of pain in poisoning by scorpion stings.

    0, 30, 60 and 90 minutes after administered the drug

Study Arms (4)

Metamizole sodium

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

1 gram intravenous, will be diluted in 0.9% physiological solution of 100 ml, applied for 30 minutes

Diagnostic Test: Visual Analogue Scale for pain

Ketorolac

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

60 milligrams intravenously, it will be added to 20 ml with 0.9% physiological solution, it will be applied for 5 minutes

Diagnostic Test: Visual Analogue Scale for pain

Lysine Clonixinate

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

100 milligram intravenously, diluted in 5% glucose solution of 100 ml, applied for 30 minutes

Diagnostic Test: Visual Analogue Scale for pain

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

20 milliliters of 0.9% physiological solution, will be applied for 5 minutes.

Diagnostic Test: Visual Analogue Scale for pain

Interventions

Will be assessed at 0´, 30´, 60´, 90 minutes and 18 hours after the application of the analgesic.
