Phthalazole is a drug with antimicrobial effect and belongs to the group of sulfa drugs.
Pharmacological action of Phthalazol
Phthalazol is absorbed very slowly from the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract. Most of it is retained when taken orally in the intestine, where there is a gradual cleavage of sulfanilamide (active) parts of the drug molecules. As a result, a sufficiently high concentration of Sulfanilamide is created in the intestine, which has a high activity against the intestinal flora. Therefore, Phthalazol has a fairly high efficiency in the treatment of various intestinal infections.
Indications
This drug is used to treat:
- Dysentery;
- Colitis;
- Gastroenteritis.
According to the instructions, Ftalazol can also be used during the preparation of patients for various surgical procedures on the intestines.
Method of application of Phthalazol
For the treatment of acute dysentery, adult patients for the first time are prescribed one gram of the drug every four hours (total daily dose - 6 g). On 3-4 days, the dose is reduced to four grams (1 g every 6 hours). Then Phthalazol is given one gram every 8 hours (3 g per day). The total dose of the drug for the course of treatment is 25-30 grams.
A week after the end of the first course of treatment for acute dysentery, a second course is carried out. At the same time, five grams of Phthalazol are given on 1-2 days (during the day, 1 g every 4 hours and at night with an interval of 8 hours). On 3-4 days they give four grams of the drug per day, and on 5-6 days - three grams. Thus, for a second course of treatment, it is necessary to use 21 g of the drug. According to Ftalazol, it promotes a complete cure for dysentery and prevents the transition of the disease into a chronic form.
According to the instructions of Ftalazol, you can not take more than 2 g at one time and more than 7 g per day.
The use of Ftalazol is also possible for the treatment of children. For children under three years of age, the drug is given in a daily dose of 0.2 g per kilogram of body weight. This dose is divided into three doses at intervals of eight hours. The course of treatment is seven days. For children over three years of age, the drug is prescribed, depending on age, in a daily dose of 0.4-0.75 g per kilogram of body weight four times a day.
The indication for Phthalazol is the treatment of other intestinal infections. In this case, adults take Phthalazol for the first time 1-2 days, one to two grams every 4-6 hours. Then the dosage is reduced by half. For children, the dosage of the drug is prescribed based on age and body weight.
Contraindications
According to the instructions, Phthalazol can not be used to treat patients with hypersensitivity to any sulfa drugs.
Side effects of Ftalazol
According to reviews, Phthalazol can lead to the development of allergic reactions (fever, itching, rash, etc.). Phthalazol has a detrimental effect on the intestinal flora, which can lead to the development of a deficiency of B vitamins (hypovitaminosis) in the patient during treatment with this drug. In the instructions for Phthalazol, it is noted that this drug in very rare cases can lead to the development of aplastic anemia and agranulocytosis.
