Meptazinol is a unique opioid analgesic. Binding studies suggest a relative selectivity for mu-1 opioid receptor sites. Meptid is indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe pain, including post-operative pain, obstetric pain and the pain of renal colic. The most commonly reported adverse reactions after treatment with meptazinol are nausea, vomiting, dizziness, diarrhoea and increased sweating, constipation, abdominal pain, rash, vertigo, headache, drowsiness, somnolence and dyspepsia.

Sample Use Guides
Oral: One tablet (200 mg), with a glass of water, every four hours.
Intramuscular: 75-100mg. The injection may be repeated 2-4 hourly as required. For obstetric pain a dose of 100-150mg should be used according to weight. This dose should approximate 2mg/kg.
Intravenous: 50-100mg by slow intravenous injection. The injection may be repeated 2-4 hourly as required. If vomiting occurs, a suitable antiemetic should be given.
