Pharmacological properties.

Pharmacodynamics.

The effect of the medicinal product is due to three active components.

Antibacterial and antifungal activity. Hexetidine exerts antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative microbial strains, as well as against both aerobes and anaerobes.

Against aerobic strains, hexetidine generally produces a bacteriostatic effect, with weak bactericidal activity. Against anaerobic strains, hexetidine exerts a pronounced bactericidal effect. The mechanism of action involves competitive inhibition with thiamine: the structure of hexetidine is similar to that of thiamine, which is essential for microbial growth.

Anti-inflammatory activity. Choline salicylate provides analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects. It is used for the treatment of oral cavity diseases.

Analgesic activity. Chlorobutanol produces an analgesic effect. It can be used, in particular, in otorhinolaryngology (nasal drops, mouthwashes) and in dental practice (applications and sprays). It can be classically used as a local anesthetic.

Pharmacokinetics.

The active substances bind to the oral mucosa, from where they are gradually released.

Clinical characteristics.

Use with caution in patients with a predisposition to allergic reactions, including bronchial asthma, particularly in patients allergic to acetylsalicylic acid.

If signs of hypersensitivity to the medicinal product occur, its use should be discontinued immediately.

Since the medicinal product contains ethanol, it should be administered with caution to patients with liver disease.

Prolonged use is not recommended, as it may alter the natural microbial balance of the oral cavity and pharynx, with a risk of bacterial and fungal overgrowth. If general clinical signs of bacterial infection appear, systemic antibacterial therapy should be initiated.

If symptoms persist for more than 5 days and/or body temperature remains elevated, the treatment strategy should be reevaluated.

If inflammation worsens, treatment with the medicinal product should be discontinued.
