Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Rinostop Extra is a decongestant drug for topical use in otorhinolaryngology. Its active ingredient, oxymetazoline, is an alpha-adrenergic agonist and has a vasoconstrictor effect. Its application to the inflamed nasal mucosa helps to eliminate the symptoms of rhinitis by reducing nasal discharge, swelling and congestion. Against the background of elimination of edema of the nasal mucosa, aeration of the paranasal sinuses of the nasal cavity and middle ear is restored, preventing the development of bacterial complications such as sinusitis, sinusitis or otitis media.
Intranasal administration of oxymetazoline in therapeutic concentrations restores nasal breathing, does not cause irritation or hyperemia of the nasal mucosa. The therapeutic effect occurs quickly and lasts up to 12 hours.
Pharmacokinetics
With local intranasal administration, oxymetazoline has no systemic effect. The half-life is 35 hours.
It is excreted through the kidneys (2.1%) and intestines (about 1.1%).
