storage conditions

Drugs
The active component of the drug Komfoderm K - methylprednisolone aceptonate - is a non-halogenized synthetic steroid.

In the external application of Komfoderm® K suppresses inflammatory and allergic skin reactions, as well as reactions associated with increased proliferation, which leads to a reduction of objective symptoms of inflammation (erythema, swelling, wetness) and subjective sensations (itching, irritation, pain, etc.).

When methylprednisolone is used externally in the recommended dose, systemic action is minimal in both humans and animals. After repeated application of methylprednisolone aceponate on large surfaces (40-60% of the skin surface), as well as when used under the occlusive bandage, there are no violations of the functions of the adrenal glands: the concentration of cortisol in plasma and its circadian rhythm remain within the norm, there is no decrease in cortisol in daily urine.

Methylprednisolone aceponate (especially its main metabolite - 6α-methylprednisolone-17-propionate) binds to intracellular glucocorticoid receptors. The steroid receptor complex binds to certain DNA sites of immune response cells, thus causing a series of biological effects. In particular, binding of the steroid receptor complex to DNA cells of the immune response leads to induction of the synthesis of macrocortin. Macrocortin inhibits the release of arachidonic acid and thereby the formation of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes.

Inhibition by glucocorticoids of the synthesis of vasodilating prostaglandins and potentiation of the vasoconstrictive effect of adrenaline lead to vasoconstrictor effect.

Indications Komfoderm K:

  • Inflammatory skin diseases sensitive to topical GCS therapy:
  • atopic dermatitis, neurodermitis, pediatric eczema;
  • true eczema;
  • microbial eczema;
  • simple contact dermatitis;
  • allergic (contact) dermatitis;
  • dishydrotic eczema.

Method of use, course and dosage Komfoderm K:

The preparation is applied externally.
Adults and children from 4 months of age, the drug is applied 1 time/day in a thin layer on the affected areas of the skin.
As a rule, the duration of continuous daily treatment with Comfort ® K should not exceed 12 weeks for adults and 4 weeks for children.
The preparation Comfort K is suitable for the treatment of subacute and acute inflammatory processes without pronounced moisture, when localizing the process both on smooth skin and on the scalp, including on skin prone to fat.

Overdose:

When studying the acute toxicity of methylprednisolone aceponate, there was no risk of acute intoxication with excessive single skin use (application of the drug over a large area under conditions favorable for absorption) or with unintentional ingestion.
Symptoms: with excessively long and/or intensive external use of GCS, skin atrophy (thinning of the skin, telangiectasia, striia) can develop.
Treatment: if signs of skin atrophy appear, the drug Komfoderm must be canceled.

Drug interaction:
Not studied.

Use in pregnancy and breast-feeding
If necessary, the drug Komfoderm K during pregnancy and during breastfeeding should carefully weigh the potential risk to the fetus/baby and the expected benefits of treatment for the mother.

Side effect:

The incidence of side effects is classified in accordance with WHO recommendations: very often (≥10%), often (≥1%, <10%), infrequently (≥0.1%, <1%), rarely (≥0.01%, <0.1%), very rarely (<0.01%), frequency is unknown (estimate of the frequency is not possible).

From the skin and subcutaneous tissues: rarely - perioral dermatitis, skin depigmentation, allergic reactions to the components of the drug Komfoderm K ; frequency is unknown - skin atrophy, teleangiotasia, stria, acne-like skin changes (when used for more than 4 weeks and/or on the area of 10% or more of the body surface).

Common disorders and disorders at the place of administration: rarely - folliculitis, hypertrichosis; very rarely - itching, burning, erythema, the formation of a vesiculosis rash; frequency is unknown - systemic effects caused by absorption of GKS (when using the drug for more than 4 weeks and/or on an area of 10% or more of the body surface).

If any of the side effects mentioned in the instructions are exacerbated or any other side effects are noted that are not specified in the instructions, the patient should immediately notify the doctor.
