Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Tramazoline hydrochloride - the active ingredient of Lazolvan Rino - is an alpha 2 -adrenomimetic that has a vasoconstrictor effect. Due to vasoconstriction after contact with the nasal mucous membranes, the drug reduces their swelling, as a result of which the patency of the nasal passages is quickly restored and nasal breathing is facilitated.
The drug begins to act 5 minutes after instillation, its effect lasts for 8-10 hours.
Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetics of tramazoline in humans have not been studied. In the course of studies on monkeys, rabbits and rats, it was found that when the drug is administered orally or intranasally, from 50 to 80% of the dose received is absorbed. Both tramazoline and its metabolites are distributed in all internal organs; the highest concentration was found consistently in the liver.
The main metabolites of tramazoline after oral and topical administration are determined in urine.
The half-life is 5-7 hours.
