Pharmacodynamics
Ascopar (acetylsalicylic acid) has analgesic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet effect; the components included in its composition enhance the effects of each other.
The analgesic effect of acetylsalicylic acid is associated with inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins in inflamed tissues (peripheral effect) and with an effect on the centers of the hypothalamus (central effect).
Violation of the synthesis of thromboxane A2 in platelets causes an antiplatelet effect.
The antipyretic effect is due to the inhibition of the synthesis of PGF2 prostaglandins in the hypothalamus in response to exposure to endogenous pyrogens.
Paracetamol has an analgesic, antipyretic and weak anti-inflammatory effect, which is associated with its effect on the thermoregulatory center in the hypothalamus and a less pronounced ability to inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins in peripheral tissues.
Caffeine in a small dose in this combination practically does not have a stimulating effect on the central nervous system, however, it helps to normalize the tone of the brain vessels and accelerate blood flow, enhances the effect of analgesics and antipyretics.
