Propacetamol Hydrochloride is a water-soluble prodrug of paracetamol, primarily utilized for rapid intravenous or intramuscular analgesic delivery. The synthesis involves the acetylation of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)paracetamide followed by hydrochloride salt formation. Its molecular formula is C10H14ClNO4 and CAS number is 67598-57-4.
Contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment or known hypersensitivity to propacetamol. Storage must be maintained below 25°C in a dry environment to prevent hydrolysis. Strict adherence to dosage limits is essential to avoid acetaminophen toxicity.
