pharmachologic effect
Tolperisone hydrochloride is a centrally acting muscle relaxant. It has a membrane stabilizing, local anesthetic effect, inhibits the conduction of nerve impulses in the primary afferent fibers and motor neurons, which leads to blocking of spinal mono- and polysynaptic reflexes. Probably, it mediates blocking the release of mediators by inhibiting the flow of calcium ions into synapses. It inhibits the conduction of excitation along the reticulospinal pathway in the brain stem. Regardless of the effect on the central nervous system, it enhances peripheral blood flow. The weak antispasmodic and antiadrenergic effect of tolperisone may play a role in the development of this effect.
Lidocaine hydrochloride has a local anesthetic effect and, when dosed according to the instructions, does not have a systemic effect.
Pharmacokinetics
Tolperisone hydrochloride
Tolperisone is extensively metabolized in the liver and kidneys. Excreted in the urine almost exclusively (> 99%) as metabolites. The pharmacological activity of the metabolites is unknown. T1 / 2 after intravenous administration - about 1.5 hours.
Lidocaine hydrochloride
Absorption - complete (absorption rate depends on the site of administration and dose). Time to reach Cmax in blood plasma with intramuscular injection is 30-45 minutes. Plasma protein binding - 50-80%.
It is quickly distributed in tissues and organs. Penetrates the BBB and the placental barrier, enters breast milk (40% concentration in the mother's plasma). It is metabolized in the liver (90-95%) with the participation of microsomal enzymes by dealkylation of the amino group and rupture of the amide bond with the formation of active metabolites. It is excreted in the bile (part of the dose is reabsorbed in the gastrointestinal tract) and by the kidneys (up to 10% unchanged).

From the side of the cardiovascular system: infrequently - arterial hypotension; rarely - angina pectoris, tachycardia, heart palpitations; very rarely - bradycardia, flushing.
From the respiratory system: rarely - shortness of breath, epistaxis, rapid breathing.
From the digestive system: infrequently - gastrointestinal discomfort, diarrhea, dry mouth, dyspepsia, nausea; rarely - epigastric pain, constipation, flatulence, vomiting, liver dysfunction.

special instructions
Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and mechanisms
Care must be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions.
Overdose
Symptoms: ataxia, tonic and clonic seizures, dyspnea, respiratory arrest.
Treatment: symptomatic and supportive therapy is recommended. There is no specific antidote.
Drug interactions
There is no data on drug interactions limiting the use of CalmirexЃ.
Although tolperisone has an effect on the central nervous system, the drug does not cause a sedative effect, therefore it can be used in combination with sedatives, hypnotics and drugs containing ethanol.
Does not enhance the effect of ethanol on the central nervous system.
Strengthens the effect of NSAIDs, therefore, with simultaneous use, it may be necessary to reduce the dose of the latter.
