Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
In the body, the active substance of the ointment, dexpanthenol, is converted into pantothenic acid (an active metabolite). It is a component of coenzyme A, which catalyzes acetylation processes in the body, and also participates in almost all metabolic processes (metabolism of fats, proteins, carbohydrates, phospholipids and fatty acids, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, etc.). Pantothenic acid is involved in the synthesis of corticosteroids and choline acetylation. It accelerates mitosis, stimulates the regeneration of mucous membranes and skin, and increases the strength of collagen fibers.
The action of pantothenic acid is weak anti-inflammatory, metabolic and regenerative.
Pharmacokinetics
When applied topically, Pantoderm ointment is quickly absorbed by the skin, where it turns into pantothenic acid. Pantothenic acid binds to plasma proteins (mainly albumin and beta globulin). Its concentration in blood is 0.5–1 mg / l, and in blood serum - about 0.1 mg / l. In the body, pantothenic acid is not metabolized (with the exception of being a part of coenzyme A). It is excreted from the body unchanged.
