An active metabolite of metamizole
4-Methylaminoantipyrine is a major active metabolite of the non-opioid prodrug metamizole .1 It is formed from metamizole by non-enzymatic hydrolysis in the gastrointestinal tract.2 4-Methylaminoantipyrine (0.1 mM) inhibits production of prostaglandin E2 induced by the calcium ionophore A23187 in isolated mouse peritoneal macrophages.3 It increases the paw withdrawal threshold in a rat model of carrageenan-induced hyperalgesia when administered at a dose of 160 ?g/paw.4 4-Methylaminoantipyrine (60, 90, and 120 mg/kg) reduces LPS-induced pyrexia in rats.5 It is also a potential impurity found in commercial preparations of metamizole.6
