Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2013.
PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
Xylometazoline belongs to the group of local vasoconstrictors (decongestants) with alpha-adrenomimetic activity, causes narrowing of the blood vessels of the nasal mucosa, restores the nasal passages, facilitates nasal breathing. The drug usually comes in a few minutes after its application and lasts up to 10 hours.
Dexpanthenol - a vitamin B group - a derivative of pantothenic acid. Dexpanthenol is converted in the body into pantothenic acid, which is an integral part of coenzyme A and participates in the processes of acetylation, carbohydrate and
fat metabolism, in the synthesis of acetylcholine, corticosteroids, porphyrins; stimulates the regeneration of the skin, mucous membranes
shells, normalizes cellular metabolism, accelerates mitosis and increases the strength of collagen fibers. It has a regenerating, metabolic and weak anti-inflammatory effect.
PHARMACOKINETICS
Xylometazoline with local application is practically not absorbed, plasma concentrations are so small that their
It is impossible to determine by modern analytical methods.
Dexpanthenol, when applied topically, is rapidly absorbed by the skin and converted to pantothenic acid, binds to plasma proteins (mainly with beta-globulin and albumin). Its concentration in the blood is 0.5-1 mg / l,
in the blood serum - 100 mcg / l. Pantothenic acid does not undergo metabolism in the body (except for inclusion in Ko-A), is excreted unchanged.
