Does Tempalgin really help with toothache?
Reviews ordinary people about the use of this drug;
How does Tempalgin act on the body and the effects it provides? side effects;
And also what much stronger analogues the drug has.

Tempalgin is an example of one of the fairly popular painkillers that people often try to use to relieve toothache. It is produced in the form of tablets and sold in pharmacies without a prescription (over-the-counter dispensing immediately explains the fact that Tempalgin is significantly inferior in effectiveness to many other painkillers available by prescription).

Well, let us immediately note that Tempalgin does not always save you from toothache and is not as effective as some other remedies that will be mentioned below.

In its properties and potency, Tempalgin is quite reminiscent of today's obsolete Analgin (the latter, by the way, is prohibited for use in many countries of the world, but for some reason not in Russia). As practice shows, Tempalgin allows you to completely get rid of only mild toothache, and sharp pain, for example, with various pulpitis and periodontitis, it only slightly weakens - and this is well confirmed by numerous reviews.

“Two months ago I had something I wouldn’t wish on my enemy. By evening, the tooth was shot, as if a needle had been inserted into it, and my legs began to give way. Previously, it sometimes hurt me, but not too much, but now it’s become completely unbearable. Usually I saved myself from any pain with Tempalgin, but here there was no effect at all. There was also Analgin and Nurofen, but they didn’t help either. And as luck would have it, it's Saturday. I called the dentist on my personal mobile phone, but he can only see me on Monday, and then he inserted it between the registered patients. So I suffered until Monday, until the nerve was removed...”

Ekaterina, Novosibirsk

Composition and principle of action of Tempalgin

Tempalgin is sometimes prescribed for dental and other types of pain for those patients whose pain syndrome is not severe. The instructions stipulate that “moderate or mild pain syndrome.”

The drug contains two active ingredients:

Metamizole sodium is the same analgesic that is the basis of the drug Analgin;
Triacetonamine-4-toluenesulfonate (Tempidone) is a sedative and tranquilizer.

The principle of action of metamizole sodium is that it blocks the formation of prostaglandins - substances responsible for the initiation inflammatory processes in the body and the development of pain. In general, this substance does reduce pain to some extent, but its anti-inflammatory properties are much less pronounced.

In parallel, triacetonamine-4-toluenesulfonate, when released into the blood, acts on the nervous system, providing a pronounced sedative, calming effect. By the way, it is thanks to this compound that Tempalgin has proven itself to be effective in relieving toothache in impressionable people who do not so much have a toothache as they “harm” themselves.

According to studies, triacetonamine-4-toluenesulfonate enhances the analgesic effect of metamizole sodium by approximately 2-3 times.

The anti-inflammatory properties of Tempalgin are very weakly expressed, and therefore it is pointless to hope that taking the drug will help relieve, for example, swelling of the gums or cheek next to a sore tooth.

Perhaps the main charm of Tempalgin is high speed his actions. Pain relief with its use occurs within 15-20 minutes and lasts about 4-5 hours, and the calming effect is even longer - up to 6-7 hours.

“For me, Tempalgin is a purely narrow-profile painkiller exclusively for home use. If you are ready to lie down after taking the pill under a warm blanket, watching movies, and so on for at least half a day, this is your option. But if there is an active day ahead and you need to be lively, then this is not an option at all, because you won’t get any liveliness, you can easily fall asleep in an hour. Very relaxing."

Ekaterina, Moscow

On a note

The severity of the effect after using Tempalgin (as, indeed, when taking many other drugs) greatly depends on individual characteristics each person. For some, Tempalgin helps even with a seemingly quite severe toothache, but for others it may not work at all. Therefore, you should be prepared that Tempalgin may have to be replaced with another drug.

Dosage and correct use of the product

According to the instructions, Tempalgin is prescribed to be taken during or after meals, 1 tablet up to 3 times a day, depending on the severity of the pain. The tablets are quite large, but thanks to their smooth coating they can be swallowed without effort. They are equally effective both with and without chewing.

If the pain does not subside or quickly reappears, then a slight increase in the frequency of taking the drug is possible. For example, you can take two Tempalgin tablets at a time, or you can take the drug 4-5 times a day. However maximum amount The dose of the drug should not be more than 6 tablets per day and 2 tablets at a time.

It is important to understand that if Tempalgin does not help with toothache or the effect of its use differs from the desired one, then it is pointless to increase the number of tablets taken in hopes of a miracle. It is much more effective and safer to take another drug.

Tempalgin should not be taken for toothache for more than 5 days in a row.

“Tempalgin helps me very well for toothache. If it happens that I can’t get to the doctor immediately as soon as my tooth hurts, then I take one tablet and it’s enough for half a day. A couple of times it happened that I had to be patient for 2-3 days, then I went to Tempalgin. It’s just that it really makes you want to sleep.”

Lena, Samara

Children under 14 years of age are prohibited from taking Tempalgin in any quantity.

Contraindications and side effects of the drug

Perhaps the main and most dangerous possible side effect from the use of Tempalgin is the ability to disrupt the process of hematopoiesis and lead to the development of agranulocytosis. IN acute form this disease can be fatal, although correct use Tempalgina occurs extremely rarely. However, in many countries around the world, drugs based on metamizole sodium are prohibited for use precisely for this reason.

Other possible side effects from taking Tempalgin are:

Leukopenia (decreased level of leukocytes in the blood);
Headaches and dizziness;
Blood pressure surges;
Kidney dysfunction;
Allergies, including epidermal necrolysis and Quincke's edema;
Liver disorders.

For these reasons, and also because of possible toxic effects on the fetus and newborn child, Tempalgin is completely contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

It is also impossible to relieve toothache with Tempalgin in cases where a person has one of the following diseases:

Kidney failure;
Liver failure;
Hypotension;
Hematopoietic disorders;
Alcoholism.

In addition, for any kidney or liver diseases, Tempalgin can be used only after the appropriate doctor’s conclusion. A contraindication to its use, although not absolute, is also bronchial asthma. In these cases, it is better to replace the drug with one of its analogues.

Analogs that can replace Tempalgin

It may seem strange, but Tempalgin is very similar in its analgesic effect to regular Aspirin, although it is also contraindicated for children under 15 years of age, and is only prescribed for kidney disease in some cases. Aspirin also relieves only mild or moderate pain, but thanks to a completely different active ingredient, it can give results in cases where Tempalgin does not work at all.

As for Analgin - as mentioned above, this drug contains the same active substance, as Tempalgin, and therefore its effectiveness against toothache will be quite comparable.

Such drugs as Nurofen, Ibuprofen, Burana and some others, available in pharmacies without a prescription, are approximately equal in strength to Tempalgin.

Much stronger than Tempalgin are Nimesil powder, Ketorol, Ketanov and Ketorolac tablets - they help to quickly relieve even acute toothache. However, all these products are sold in pharmacies only with a doctor’s prescription, so using them at home for toothache can be quite problematic.

“The real problem started later, on the sixth day of the hike. Just imagine, the Polar Urals in winter, the nearest village is more than 80 km away, the whole group confidently walks the route, I also have plenty of strength. But you literally can’t eat or sleep because of a toothache. I tried to suppress the pain with Tempalgin, but it didn’t help. Ketanova took 10 tablets for the whole group, and even then only extreme case, if someone breaks something. Plus, Tempalgin turns you into an amoeba; if you drink it at the beginning of the day, then you’ll go skiing like in a dream. There is a week until the end of the trip. And there is no way out! At least hang yourself on the nearest pine tree! I thought that I wouldn’t live to see the end of the hike, but somehow within two days I had a toothache and the pain eased a little. Already when we went to Polyarny, I didn’t feel it at all, I even decided that I could make it home. Didn't make it. In Labytnangi, while everyone was walking around the city, I sat at the dentist and had my tooth treated.”

Alexey, Voronezh

In any case, Tempalgin or other painkillers should not be used as a replacement. full treatment teeth. Such drugs are intended only to alleviate a person’s condition before a visit to the doctor, but not to avoid this visit. In addition, when using any drug, you should carefully read the instructions for it, and ideally, consult a doctor.

Be prudent and treat your teeth on time - then you are unlikely to have to suffer from toothache.
