The active ingredient is dexpanthenol. There are various forms of the drug for external use - ointment, cream, spray.

The ointment is homogeneous, light yellow in color with a pleasant lanolin smell. An ointment is produced at 25 or 50 g of the drug in a tube.

White cream, homogeneous, with a specific aroma. A cream is produced for 25 or 50 g of the drug in a tube.

Spray Panthenol (aerosol for topical application 4.63%), produced in aluminum cans of 58 and 130 g.

pharmachologic effect

The drug has regenerative effects (stimulates epithelization and healing of the skin), and a moderate anti-inflammatory effect. Dexpanthenol stimulates the healing and restoration of skin layers, normalizes cell metabolism, and enhances the strength of collagen fibers. In case of damage to the skin and tissues (with injuries, burns, diseases), Panthenol is able to compensate for the deficiency of pantothenic acid, of which it is a derivative.

According to the instructions of Panthenol, when used topically, it is rapidly absorbed and converted into pantothenic acid, after which it binds to plasma proteins.

Indications for Panthenol's use

Panthenol is used for violations of the integrity of the skin due to injuries, burns (thermal, chemical) and other reasons.

• burns of various origins (thermal, solar, chemical);
• abrasions, scratches;
• dermatitis (including diaper dermatitis in infants), diaper rash;
• cracks and inflammatory changes in the nipples of the mammary glands in nursing mothers;
• prevention of negative effects on the skin of environmental factors (wind, frost, dampness, etc.);
• treatment of trophic ulcers of various origins, bedsores, extensive wound surfaces (for Panthenol ointment);
• treatment of the skin around the tracheo-, gastro-, colostomy in order to prevent the occurrence of damage to the skin.

Panthenol ointment can also be used to treat poorly healing skin grafts. As an additional source of fats and pantothenic acid products, this drug can be used to treat very dry skin.

For burns, Panthenol is best used in the form of a spray, since the excipients contained in it help to better penetrate into the deep layers of the skin and also provide a cooling effect.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to the constituent components of the drug.

Side effects of Panthenol

Allergic reactions are possible. According to reviews, Panthenol is well tolerated and rarely causes side effects.

Method of administration and dosage

According to the instructions, Panthenol is used externally. Ointment or cream is applied in a thin layer to the damaged area of the skin, and rubbed lightly. You need to use the drug 2-4 times a day (if necessary, more often). If a cream or ointment is applied to an infected area of the skin, then it should first be treated with an antiseptic solution.

For babies with diaper dermatitis, according to the instructions, Panthenol is applied after each diaper change or washing. The duration of treatment with this drug depends on the severity of skin symptoms and the characteristics of the course of the disease.

Panthenol is used in nursing mothers for cracks and inflammation of the nipple. You should lubricate the surface of the nipple with a cream (or ointment) after each feeding. You do not need to wash off the drug. According to reviews, Panthenol helps to quickly heal cracked nipples and does not cause side reactions.

From burns, Panthenol can be used from the very first minutes of damage. The best effect is given by a spray. When using a spray bottle, keep it upright. Shake it well before using it to foam. Apply the aerosol by evenly distributing it on the affected skin for a few seconds. After the appearance of foam, a thin film forms on the affected area, which prevents fluid loss and has a dermatoprotective effect. You need to apply the spray several times a day, depending on the severity of local changes. According to reviews, Panthenol is good for sunburn if used within the first hours.

Special instructions for the use of Panthenol

The cream, ointment and spray are for external use only. Panthenol should not be applied to wounds with abundant discharge (weeping wounds). Treatment should be carried out under the supervision of a physician.
