Frequently asked questions

What is Metamizol Teva used for?+
Metamizol Teva contains metamizole sodium, a prescription‑only analgesic and antipyretic. It is used to treat moderate to severe pain, such as postoperative or acute pain, and to lower fever in adult patients when other options are unsuitable.
How does metamizole sodium work?+
Metamizole sodium works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes, which reduces prostaglandin production, and by modulating central pain pathways in the spinal cord and brain. This combined effect provides analgesia and reduces the hypothalamic set‑point for body temperature.
What is the usual dose of Metamizol Teva?+
The appropriate dose of Metamizol Teva is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s condition, severity of symptoms, and individual health factors. Dosage instructions are provided on the prescription label.
Is Metamizol Teva safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for metamizole sodium in pregnancy and lactation are limited, and the product is classified as having an unknown pregnancy category. Healthcare providers should evaluate the potential benefits against possible risks before prescribing to pregnant or nursing women.
How do I order Metamizol Teva from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Metamizol Teva compare with other analgesics?+
Metamizol belongs to the pyrazolone class, offering strong analgesic and antipyretic effects similar to NSAIDs but with a different safety profile. Unlike many NSAIDs, it has a lower risk of gastric irritation but carries a rare risk of agranulocytosis, which requires blood‑count monitoring.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Metamizol Teva?+
Metamizol Teva tablets should be stored at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in the original packaging to protect them from moisture and light. Keep the container tightly closed and out of reach of children.
How is Metamizol Teva administered?+
Metamizol Teva is administered orally as a tablet. The patient should swallow the tablet whole with water, unless otherwise directed by the prescriber. It is taken with or without food according to the healthcare professional’s guidance.
What are the most serious risks associated with Metamizol Teva?+
The most serious risks include agranulocytosis, a potentially life‑threatening drop in white blood cells, and severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis or Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Patients should be monitored for signs of infection, rash, or breathing difficulties and seek immediate medical attention if they occur.
Who should not use Metamizol Teva?+
Metamizol Teva should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to metamizole or other pyrazolones, in patients with a history of severe blood dyscrasias, and in those for whom safer alternatives are available. It should also be used with caution in patients with renal impairment.
