Instructions for Tantum Verde (Benzydamine) sugarless
ACTUAL INFORMATION about the preparation Tantum Verde:
Inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity and oropharynx, both acute and chronic, occupy one of the leading positions in terms of medical care requests among representatives of all age categories. That is why doctors of various specialties need a drug that can be applied empirically and obtain several different therapeutic effects simultaneously. Tantum Verde can become just such a therapeutic tool - a convenient drug for the local treatment of sore throat, as well as inflammatory processes in the oral cavity.
Pharmacological properties Tantum Verde:
pharmacodynamics . Benzydamine is an NSAID with analgesic and anti-exudative properties. In the course of clinical studies, benzydamine has been shown to be effective in reducing the severity of symptoms that accompany localized irritating pathological processes in the oral cavity and pharynx. In addition, benzydamine has an anti-inflammatory and local anesthetic effect, and exhibits a local anesthetic effect on the oral mucosa.
Pharmacokinetics:
The fact of absorption through the mucous membrane of the oral cavity and pharynx has been proven by the presence of measurable amounts of benzydamine in human blood plasma.
However, this is not enough to exert any systemic pharmacological effect.
Excretion occurs mainly in the urine, mainly in the form of inactive metabolites or conjugated compounds. It has been shown that when applied topically, an accumulation of an effective concentration of benzydamine in inflamed tissues is achieved due to its ability to penetrate the mucous membrane.
