Hematological Safety of Dipyrone Versus Paracetamol After Dental Extractions
Hematological Alterations Associated With the Use of Dipyrone Versus Paracetamol After Dental Extractions: a Double-blind, Randomized Clinical Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety of dipyrone and paracetamol when used for pain relief after dental extractions in adults. The study will focus on changes in blood cell counts and will also evaluate liver and kidney function and possible side effects. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Do dipyrone and paracetamol have different effects on blood cell counts after dental extractions?
- Do participants exhibit hepatic and renal alterations?
- What side effects do participants experience when taking these medications?
Researchers will compare dipyrone and paracetamol to learn more about their safety after dental extractions.
Participants will:
- Undergo two dental extractions, one during each study period, involving teeth that already need to be removed
- Take dipyrone 500 mg or paracetamol 750 mg in a random order, taking two capsules every 6 hours for 7 days during each period
- Have at least 21 days between the two study periods
- Have three blood collections: one before the first extraction and one on the eighth day after each extraction
- Keep a diary of their pain, medication use, and possible side effects
- Have their blood pressure checked and attend clinic visits and telephone follow-ups to monitor their health

Szczegółowy opis
Dental extractions are commonly followed by pain, and medications such as dipyrone and paracetamol are used to help relieve this pain. Although both medications are widely used, it is important to better understand their safety, particularly their possible effects on blood cell counts.
This clinical trial aims to compare the safety of dipyrone and paracetamol in adults undergoing dental extractions. The main focus is to evaluate changes in blood cell counts, including white blood cells, neutrophils, red blood cells, and platelets. The study will also assess blood tests related to liver and kidney function, changes in blood pressure and possible side effects during treatment.
Participants will undergo two dental extractions, one during each study period, involving teeth that already require removal. The order in which participants receive the medications will be determined randomly. During one study period, participants will receive dipyrone 500 mg per dose, and during the other, they will receive paracetamol 750 mg per dose. Each dose will consist of two capsules. The medications will be provided in identical capsules and will be prepared by a compounding pharmacy in Brazil, according to the study protocol. Neither participants nor researchers will know which medication is being used during each period. Each treatment period will last 7 days, with two capsules taken every 6 hours, according to the study protocol. The two study periods will be separated by at least 21 days.
Blood samples will be collected three times: before the first dental extraction and on the eighth day after each extraction. These tests will allow researchers to compare blood cell counts and other laboratory results before and after each medication period. Participants will also record their pain levels, medication use, and possible side effects in a diary. Blood pressure will be monitored, and clinical assessments and telephone contacts will be used to follow participants' health and identify possible adverse reactions.
By comparing the results obtained during the two treatment periods, researchers hope to improve understanding of the safety of dipyrone and paracetamol when used after dental extractions. The findings may contribute to evidence-based decisions about pain management following dental surgery.
