Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Nasik for children is a combined preparation for topical use in ENT practice, which has a vasoconstrictor and decongestant effect.
Pharmacodynamics of the drug is due to the following properties of the active ingredients:
- xylometazoline: has alpha-adrenomimetic activity, belongs to the group of decongestants (local vasoconstrictor agents); helps to narrow the blood vessels of the nasal mucosa, restore the patency of the nasal passages. Relief of nasal breathing usually occurs immediately after the injection of Nasic for children and lasts for 10 hours;
- dexpanthenol: is a derivative of pantothenic acid (vitamin B 5) - a component of coenzyme A. After being converted into pantothenic acid in the body, dexpanthenol is involved in processes such as acetylation, carbohydrate and fat metabolism, the synthesis of acetylcholine, corticosteroids and porphyrins. Stimulates the regeneration of the skin and mucous membranes, helps to normalize cell metabolism, accelerate mitosis, and increase the strength of collagen fibers. It has a weak anti-inflammatory, regenerating and metabolic effect.
Pharmacokinetics
When applied topically, xylometazoline is almost not absorbed, therefore, its concentration in the systemic circulation is very low.
Dexpanthenol is rapidly absorbed by the skin. Once converted to pantothenic acid, it primarily binds to plasma proteins such as beta globulin and albumin. The concentration of pantothenic acid in the blood can reach from 0.5 to 1 mg / l, in the blood serum - 0.1 mg / l. Pantothenic acid is not biotransformed in the body and is excreted unchanged.
