Analgesine
Definition
An historical commercial name or archaic pharmaceutical synonym attributed to antipyrine (phenazone), the first commercially successful synthetic analgesic and antipyretic compound marketed in the late 19th century. Structurally used in the past to treat fever, migraines, and rheumatism, this pyrazolone class molecule was gradually replaced in current medical practice by safer derivatives, preserved today only in some topical solutions (ear drops).
