Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Metamizole Sodium production plant. These encompass production processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.
Metamizole Sodium is also known as dipyrone and is widely recognized for its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic properties. It is widely used as an analgesic medication for the treatment of severe acute pain, such as post-operative pain, colic pain, and smooth muscle spasms. It also finds its application as an oral drug in relieving fever, pain, and inflammation. It is also used as an intermediate in the production of analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic medications for various animals, including cattle, horses, pigs, sheep, dogs, and cats. It is often used in the form of injectable solutions in hospital and clinical settings to manage severe pain and high fever.
The market for Metamizole Sodium is predominantly driven by its demand as an analgesic and antipyretic drug for managing severe acute pain. Its usage as a non-narcotic analgesic drug for relieving pain associated with neuralgia, myalgia, acute arthritis, and post-operative pain also promotes its demand in the medical and pharmaceutical industries. Its application as an antipyretic drug for fever reduction, especially in cases where other treatments have proven ineffective, further enhances its demand in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries.
Its involvement in production pain-relieving, anti-inflammatory, and fever-reducing medications for various animals also fuels its demand in the veterinary medicine industry. Metamizole sodium is subject to different regulations across different countries due to concerns over side effects, which largely impact its availability and industrial Metamizole Sodium procurement. Also, changes in the prices and availability of raw materials further affect the cost of Metamizole Sodium and its procurement strategies.
Raw Material for Metamizole Sodium Production
According to the Metamizole Sodium production plant project report, the major raw materials for Metamizole Sodium production include Acetoacetic Ester-Phenylhydrazine.
Production Process of Metamizole Sodium
The extensive Metamizole Sodium production cost report consists of the following industrial production process:
- Production via Chemical Synthesis: This method of production involves the synthesis of Metamizole Sodium by the chemical reaction of acetoacetic ester and phenylhydrazine to form 1-phenyl- 3-methylpyrazolone-5, followed by methylation with methyl iodide to give 1-phenyl- 2,3-dimethylpyrazolone-5. Further, the obtained compound undergoes nitrozation by sodium nitrite to form 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-4- nitrozopyrazolone-5, followed by its reduction to give 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-4-aminopyrazolone-5. Then, the obtained compound is reacted with benzaldehyde to form 1-phenyl- 2,3-dimethyl-4-benzylidenaminopyrazolone-5, followed by methylation by dimethylsulfate to give quaternary salt, followed by hydrolysis to form 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-4-methylaminopyrazolone-5. As the last step, the obtained product is treated with a water solution of a mixture of sodium bisulfite and formaldehyde, which results in the formation of 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-4-methylaminopyrazolone-5-N-sodium methanesulfonate or Metamizole Sodium as the final product.
