Generic Name: Meperidine Hydrochloride
Class: Opiate Agonists
VA Class: CN101
CAS Number: 50-13-5
Opiate agonist; a synthetic phenylpiperidine derivative.b
A strong analgesic used in the relief of moderate to severe pain.b
Usually, temporary relief of moderate to severe pain such as that associated with acute and some chronic medical disorders including renal or biliary colic, acute trauma, postoperative pain, and cancer.e
Used to provide analgesia during diagnostic and orthopedic procedures and during labor.246 e
For preoperative sedation and as a supplement to anesthesia.e
Around-the-clock dosing of analgesics may be considered in the initial stages of acute pain to avoid wide swings in pain and sedation often associated with as-needed dosing regimens.e
Although commonly used for acute pain relief, use as first-line opiate therapy is discouraged because of central excitatory toxicity of metabolite (normeperidine).247 245
Because of extensive first-pass metabolism in the liver to normeperidine, the risk of excitatory toxicity is increased with oral administration of meperidine; therefore, oral therapy is discouraged.246 247 245
Has been used to relieve the pain of MI, although probably not as effective as morphine sulfate.b
Use for chronic pain is discouraged because of short duration of effect and risk of accumulation of normeperidine metabolite and resultant central excitatory toxicity with repeated or large doses.e 248
Used parenterally for preoperative sedation and as a supplement to anesthesia.b
Used in patients with acute pulmonary edema† for its cardiovascular effects and to allay anxiety.b
Do not use in the treatment of pulmonary edema resulting from a chemical respiratory irritant.b
Give the smallest effective dose and as infrequently as possible to minimize the development of tolerance and physical dependence.b
Reduced dosage is indicated initially in poor-risk patients, in geriatric and very young patients, in patients with renal (particularly) or hepatic impairment, and in patients receiving other CNS depressants.b 246 247 245
Reduce meperidine dose by 25–50% when used in conjunction with other CNS depressants (e.g., phenothiazines, other tranquilizers); dosage adjustment for the concomitantly administered drug also may be necessary.b
Orally, 300 mg is approximately equianalgesic with 30 mg morphine sulfate.c 245 248 Parenterally, 75–100 mg is approximately equianalgesic with 10 mg morphine sulfate.c 245 248 (For specific patient dosages, see dosage recommendations in Dosage and also see Prescribing Limits under Dosage and Administration.)
Generally limit to short-term use (a few days) because of risk of accumulation of toxic normeperidine metabolite with repeated or large doses.e 247 245 248
Administer orally; by sub-Q, IM, or slow IV injection; or by slow, continuous IV infusion.b
Least effective when given orally.b 246 247 245 Higher dosages may be necessary for pain relief, but the risk of toxicity from metabolite normeperidine is increased.247 248
Oral therapy is discouraged because of extensive first-pass metabolism in the liver and resultant increased formation of the toxic metabolite (normeperidine).246 247 245 248
Dilute each dose of oral solution in ½ glassful of water, since undiluted solution may produce slight topical anesthesia on mucous membranes.b
Administer by direct IV injection, IV infusion, or IV via a controlled-delivery device for patient-controlled analgesia (PCA).b c 246
If IV administration is required, decrease dosage and administer injections very slowly, preferably as a 10-mg/mL injection.b HID
Alternatively, may use the commercially available injection containing 10 mg/mL intended for use with a compatible infusion device (does not require further dilution); this 10-mg/mL injection is for single use only, and unused portions should be discarded appropriately.b
When given parenterally, especially by the IV route, the patient should be lying down.b
During and immediately following IV administration, an opiate antagonist and facilities for administration of oxygen and control of respiration should be available.b
May dilute in a compatible IV solution for infusion, usually to a concentration of 1 mg/mL.b HID (See Solution Compatibility under Compatibility.)
Direct IV injection: Usually, very slowly, preferably as a 10-mg/mL injection.246 HID
IV injection for PCA: Self-administered intermittently as needed (“prn”) via controlled-delivery device, with usual lockout intervals (minimum time between self-administered doses programmed into device) of 6–12 minutes.246
IV infusion, adults: Usually, 15–35 mg/hour.b
Inject into a large muscle mass, taking care to avoid nerve trunks.b
IM injection is discouraged for any analgesic (e.g., the injection itself is painful, delayed onset).246 247 248
When repeat parenteral doses are necessary and IV therapy is not used, IM is preferred over sub-Q administration because of occurrence of local tissue irritation and induration following sub-Q injection.b
Preservative-free injections have been injected or infused epidurally†; specialized techniques are required for administration of the drug by this route, and such administration should be performed only by qualified individuals familiar with the techniques of administration, dosages, and special patient management problems associated with epidural meperidine hydrochloride administration.b
Some experts discourage use in children.245
May receive 1.1–1.8 mg/kg (up to adult dose) orally, IM, or sub-Q every 3–4 hours as needed.b c 246
Alternatively, 175 mg/m2 daily in 6 divided doses orally, IM, or sub-Q.b
Single pediatric doses should not exceed 100 mg.b
Do not use for PCA when analgesic consumption is expected to be high; risk of CNS excitatory toxicity from normeperidine.247
PCA (usually IV) via controlled-delivery device: Loading doses of 0.5–1.5 mg/kg, preferably titrated by clinician or nurse at bedside.246
PCA (usually IV) via controlled-delivery device: Maintenance doses (administered intermittently) of 0.1–0.2 mg/kg, self-administered usually no more frequently than every 6–12 minutes as a device-programmed lockout period.246
May receive 1–2.2 mg/kg (maximum up to the adult dose) IM or sub-Q 30–90 minutes before the beginning of anesthesia.b
May be given by repeated slow IV injections of a dilute solution (e.g., containing 10 mg/mL) or by continuous IV infusion of a more dilute solution (e.g., containing 1 mg/mL).b
Usually, 50–150 mg every 3–4 hours as needed.b c 246
Usually, 15–35 mg/hour.b
Do not use for PCA when analgesic consumption is expected to be high; risk of CNS excitatory toxicity from normeperidine.247
PCA (usually IV) via controlled-delivery device: Loading doses of 12.5–25 mg every 10 minutes, preferably titrated by clinician or nurse at bedside, up to 50–125 mg total.246
PCA (usually IV) via controlled-delivery device: Maintenance doses (self-administered intermittently) of 5–10 mg, self-administered usually no more frequently than every 6–12 minutes as a device-programmed lockout period.246
Usually, 50–100 mg IM or sub-Q 30–90 minutes before the beginning of anesthesia.b
May be given by repeated slow IV injections of a dilute solution (e.g., containing 10 mg/mL) or by continuous IV infusion of a more dilute solution (e.g., containing 1 mg/mL).b
50–100 mg when labor pains become regular; repeat at 1- to 3-hour intervals as needed.b
Single pediatric doses should not exceed 100 mg.b
Increased risk of toxicity from the active metabolite, normeperidine, when given for >48 hours or in total dosages exceeding 600 mg/24 hours.245 (See Elimination under Pharmacokinetics.)
Adjustment in the dose, frequency, and/or duration of therapy may be necessary because accumulation of the drug and/or its toxic metabolite, normeperidine, can occur.200 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 211 212 213
Certain adverse effects secondary to CNS stimulation (e.g., seizures, agitation, irritability, nervousness, tremors, twitches, myoclonus) have been attributed to accumulation of normeperidine.200 201 204 205 206 209 210 211 240
Oral bioavailability may be increased substantially in these patients.212 213 (See Pharmacokinetics.)
Generally avoid in renal impairment, particularly repeated or high doses.246 247 245
If used, adjustment in the dose, frequency, and/or duration of meperidine therapy is likely to be necessary because accumulation of the drug and/or its toxic metabolite, normeperidine, can occur.200 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 211 212 213

Patients receiving MAO inhibitors.b e 244
Known hypersensitivity to meperidine or any ingredient in the respective formulation.244
Shares the toxic potentials of the opiate agonists; observe the usual precautions of opiate agonist therapy.e
Serotonin syndrome may occur in patients receiving MAO inhibitors in conjunction with other serotonergic drugs, including meperidine.
Concomitant use with an MAO inhibitor has resulted in excitatory effects (e.g., agitation, bizarre behavior, headache, hypertension, hypotension, rigidity, seizures, hyperpyrexia, coma) associated with serotonin syndrome.
Additive depressant effects may occur with concomitant use of other CNS depressants including other opiates, sedatives or hypnotics, general anesthetics, phenothiazines, tranquilizers, skeletal muscle relaxants, sedating antihistamines, and alcohol.e 244
When such combined therapy is contemplated, the dose of one or both agents should be reduced.b
Causes dose-related respiratory depression.e 244
Respiratory depression is most common in geriatric or debilitated patients, or in conditions accompanied by hypoxia or hypercapnia; even moderate therapeutic opiate dosages may dangerously decrease pulmonary ventilation.e 244
Use with extreme caution, if at all, in anoxia, hypercapnia, respiratory depression, or in those who are especially prone to respiratory depression such as comatose patients or those with head injury, brain tumor, or elevated CSF pressure.e
Also use with extreme caution, if at all, in cor pulmonale, acute asthma exacerbation, or COPD and in others with substantially decreased respiratory reserve as in emphysema, hypoxia, hypercapnia, kyphoscoliosis, or severe obesity.e 244
Respiratory depression effects and ability of opiates to increase CSF pressure may be markedly exaggerated in patients with head injury, other intracranial lesions, or preexisting elevation in intracranial pressure; opiate effects may produce cerebral hypoxia and obscure clinical course of patients with head injuries.244 Use with extreme caution, if at all.244
May interfere with evaluation of CNS function, and respiratory depression produced by the drug may produce cerebral hypoxia and elevated CSF pressure not caused by the injury itself.e 246
Performance of activities requiring mental alertness and physical coordination may be impaired (e.g., operating a motor vehicle or machinery).244
May cause severe hypotension postoperatively or when ability to maintain blood pressure is compromised (e.g., depleted blood volume, concurrent phenothiazine or general anesthetic use).244
May produce orthostatic hypotension in amubulatory patients.244
Inadvertent IM injection into or near nerve trunks can result in sensory-motor paralysis, which may or may not be transient.b
Physical and psychic dependence and tolerance may develop with repeated administration, and abuse potential exists; use with caution.e
Some commercially available formulations contain sodium metabisulfite, a sulfite that may cause allergic-type reactions, including anaphylaxis and life-threatening or less severe asthmatic episodes, in certain susceptible individuals.b
Overall prevalence of sulfite sensitivity in the general population is unknown but probably low; such sensitivity appears to occur more frequently in asthmatic than in nonasthmatic individuals.b
Care should be exercised and the initial dosage of the opiate agonist should be reduced in patients with toxic psychosis and in geriatric or debilitated patients.e
May increase ventricular response rate through a vagolytic action, therefore use with caution in patients with atrial flutter and other supraventricular tachycardias.b 244
May obscure diagnosis or clinical course of patients with acute abdominal conditions.244
May aggravate preexisting seizure disorders.
Accumulation of toxic normeperidine metabolite can stimulate the CNS and precipitate seizures in patients without a preexisting seizure disorder.246 247 245 248
Use with caution in patients at risk for accumulation of normeperidine (e.g., those with renal or hepatic impairment) and during prolonged therapy and/or with high dosages in other patients (e.g., those with sickle cell anemia or CNS disease, burn patients, cancer patients) at risk for neurotoxic effects of the metabolite.200 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 211 212 213 220 240 245
Observe these patients closely for potential manifestations of CNS stimulation (e.g., seizures, agitation, irritability, nervousness, tremors, twitches, myoclonus) associated with accumulation of the metabolite.246 247 248 200 204 205 206 208 209 210 211 220 240
Category C.PDH
Distributed into milk.246 244 Discontinue nursing or the drug.244
Should not be given to infants <6 months of age;PDH neonatal elimination is greatly reduced.246
Some experts discourage use in children of any age.245
Elimination is slower in geriatric patients than in younger patients.244
Geriatric patients, especially those with decreased renal and hepatic function, may be at greater risk for adverse CNS effects secondary to accumulation of the toxic metabolite normeperidine.242 243 244
Use with caution in geriatric patients, taking into account the potential risks and benefits to the patient, and dosage adjustment should be considered.246 242 243 244
Adjustment in the dose, frequency, and/or duration of therapy may be necessary because accumulation of the drug and/or its toxic metabolite, normeperidine, can occur.200 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 211 212 213 (See Hepatic Impariment under Dosage and Administration.)
Generally avoid in renal impairment, particularly repeated or high doses.246 247 245 (See Renal Impariment under Dosage and Administration.)
Adverse CNS effects include dizziness, visual disturbances, mental clouding or depression, sedation, coma, euphoria, dysphoria, weakness, faintness, agitation, restlessness, nervousness, seizures, and, rarely, delirium and insomnia.e
Adverse GI effects of opiate agonists include nausea, vomiting, and constipation.e
Opiate agonists may interfere with evaluation of CNS function, especially relative to consciousness levels, pupillary changes, and respiratory depression, thereby masking the patient’s clinical course.e
May increase the risk of water intoxication in postoperative patients because of stimulation of the release of vasopressin.e

Opiate agonists alter perception of and emotional response to pain.246
Precise mechanism of action has not been fully elucidated; opiate agonists act at several CNS sites, involving several neurotransmitter systems to produce analgesia.246
Pain perception is altered in the spinal cord and higher CNS levels (e.g., substantia gelatinosa, spinal trigeminal nucleus, periaqueductal gray, periventricular gray, medullary raphe nuclei, hypothalamus).246
Opiate agonists do not alter the threshold or responsiveness of afferent nerve endings to noxious stimuli, nor peripheral nerve impulse conduction.246
Opiate agonists act at specific receptor binding sites in the CNS and other tissues; opiate receptors are concentrated in the limbic system, thalamus, striatum, hypothalamus, midbrain, and spinal cord.246
Agonist activity at the opiate μ- or κ-receptor can result in analgesia, miosis, and/or decreased body temperature.246
Agonist activity at the μ-receptor can also result in suppression of opiate withdrawal (and antagonist activity can result in precipitation of withdrawal).246
Respiratory depression may be mediated by μ-receptors, possibly μ2-receptors (which may be distinct from μ1-receptors involved in analgesia); κ- and δ-receptors may also be involved in respiratory depression.246
Equianalgesic doses of meperidine hydrochloride and morphine sulfate produce the same degree of respiratory depression.b
Sedative and euphoric effects of equianalgesic doses of meperidine may be greater than those of morphine but reports are conflicting.b
Causes little or no constipation and has antitussive activity only in analgesic doses.b
Exhibits some anticholinergic properties.e
Systemic administration: May cause corneal anesthesia which can abolish the corneal reflex.b
Topical application: Produces considerable local anesthesia, but meperidine is not utilized for local anesthesia because it also produces local irritation.b
Overdosage may produce mydriasis rather than miosis.e
Toxic effects may be excitatory.e
Potential for drug to impair mental alertness or physical coordination; avoid driving or operating machinery until effects on individual are known.244
Advise patients of risk of postural hypotension during ambulation.244
Importance of informing clinicians of existing or contemplated concomitant therapy, including prescription and OTC drugs as well as any concomitant illnesses.
Importance of women informing clinicians if they are or plan to become pregnant or plan to breast-feed.
Importance of informing patients of other important precautionary information. (See Cautions.)
