Dolgic Chemical Information

acetaminophen - An acetanilide with analgesic and antipyretic activity. Although the exact mechanism through which acetaminophen exert its effects has yet to be fully determined, this agent probably acts by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis in the central nervous system (CNS). Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the CNS results in elevation of the pain threshold and lowering of the thermal set point in the hypothalamus.

butalbital - A barbiturate that exerts its effect by mimicking the inhibitory effect of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) by binding to a site, distinct from the benzodiazepine binding site, on the GABA receptor. This leads to an increase in the duration of GABA-mediated opening of chloride channels and enhances the inhibitory effect of GABA. Consequently, its physiologic effects include sedation, hypnosis, reduction of anxiety, and respiratory depression and the drug causes tolerance and dependence.
