The effect is slow and lasting, and it has a good effect on the treatment of headache, neuralgia, arthralgia and fever, but the anti-rheumatism and anti-inflammatory effects are weak.
Excessive dosage can lead to methemoglobin disease, resulting in hypoxia of the body, long-term medication can damage the kidney, and even cause nipple necrosis, should be used with caution.
The mild analgesic effect of phenacetin can be maintained for 3-4 hours. The synergistic effect with salicylic acid can enhance the analgesic effect. Clinical mainly used for antipyretic analgesia in small animals.
