Metamizole (sodium)

Metamizole sodium (Dipyrone) is an orally active cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor. Metamizole sodium can inhibit cell proliferation and promote cell apoptosis. Metamizole sodium has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. Metamizole sodium is an antipyretic, analgesic and spasmolytic agent. .Metamizole sodium can be used in research to relieve a variety of pain[1][2][3][4][5].
