Properties and action

This drug is able to inhibit bacteria, both gram-negative and gram-positive. Getting on the shell of the pathogen, it completely dissolves it.

In addition, furacilin has other useful properties, for example, activation of the production of antibodies to the focus of the disease, which may be located in deep tissues.

Thanks to this, there is practically no chance for bacteria to survive.

Most often, furatsilin is used for sore throat, pharyngitis, tonsillitis to gargle the throat, or treat wounds for burns and cuts.

However, if you look at the instructions for the drug, you can make sure that the spectrum of its pharmacological action is much wider... This medicine can be used in the fight against various microbes: with Trichomonas, Salmonella, dysentery and Escherichia coli, Vibrio cholerae, Staphylococcus, paratyphoid and gas gangrene pathogens. Also, this drug is often prescribed for conjunctivitis and empyema of the paranasal sinuses.

Most often, furacilin is found in tablets, each of which contains 20 mg of active substance - nitrofural, as well as sodium chloride. In pharmacies, the drug is dispensed in standard packages containing 10 units. If you need furatsilin for gargling, you can safely purchase it in the form of tablets; how to dilute it will be discussed below.

Also on sale is a ready-made solution of the drug, similar in composition to tablets and diluted with water for injection. Furacilin in liquid form is convenient to use, but has a shorter shelf life. In addition, it is more rational to take pills on a trip.

Instructions for use

Since those who are going to use furacilin to rinse the throat or treat a wound with it, most often there are questions related to the drug in tablets, so let's start with this information.

There are two options for furacilin solution - water and alcohol. Both can be purchased at the pharmacy, or you can do it yourself, observing the necessary proportions.

Alcohol is not used for rinsing, but for instillation into the ear for otitis media.

You need to purchase it in trusted pharmacies; you cannot replace this component with analogues. It is advisable to use distilled water; you can also buy it at pharmacies.

However, it is not forbidden to use ordinary boiled water, it is much more profitable.

If it is indicated on the package, then you just need to dip the tablet into the liquid, it will dissolve almost immediately.

In the case of ordinary furacilin, you must first crush it in a mortar or with a tablespoon.

Important! Self-treatment can lead to a worsening of the condition, therefore, any drug should be prescribed to a patient exclusively by a doctor. Furacilin is no exception to this rule.

You you should get a yellow liquid. After waiting for the solution to cool slightly (but it will not be too cold), you can gargle with furacilin.

Concentration

Now about how many furacilin tablets per glass of water will be required, because it is an aqueous solution that is used most often. The dosage does not depend on the patient's age, so the recommendations for children and adults will be general.

According to the instructions for the drug, 1 tablet must be dissolved in 100 ml of water, respectively, two pieces are needed per glass. If you need a different amount of solution, calculate the proportions yourself. For example, for 150 ml - one and a half tablets, for 300 ml - three.

As for the alcohol solution, the concentration is completely different - one tablet should be dissolved in 33 ml of liquid.

If necessary, the dose of the components can be increased proportionally.

As a rule, the doctor gives information on how often to use the drug, you must adhere to his recommendations.

Usually up to 5 procedures are prescribed per day (every 3-4 hours).

This is justified by the fact that despite the 6-hour duration of the drug's action, its concentration in the oral cavity and pharynx gradually decreases due to salivation. For the same reason, the patient should not drink or eat for two hours after rinsing.

How to gargle

So, the solution is ready, you can proceed directly to the procedure.

• take a small amount of the product in your mouth;
• tilt your head back, but not too much so as not to choke;
• you do not need to swallow the solution, but so that it penetrates deeper to the source of infection, pronounce the letter "Y";
• spit out the rest of the product, then repeat all steps of the procedure.

The solution should be fresh and warm, so if you made liquid furacilin yourself, use it right away.

Many parents wonder how often this procedure should be done to children and whether it is possible for them to gargle with furacilin at all. Experts convince of the safety of this drug for children, but it is important to know that:

• Gargling is contraindicated in children under three years of age.
• This procedure should be performed for young patients under the watchful eye of an adult.
• If the child has an intolerance to the components of the drug, another treatment should be chosen.

Thus, furacilin itself does not have age-related contraindications, however, the instructions for use have warnings for such a procedure as gargling for children.

Furacilin for various diseases

The drug, as mentioned earlier, helps to cope with various diseases of a bacterial and infectious nature. Consider those for which this medicine is most often prescribed.

Furacilin for angina and tonsillitis

Let's combine these two diseases into one section, since in fact they are one and the same. Tonsillitis is a disease associated with infection of the tonsils, most often palatine.

It can take place in an acute or chronic form, while the symptoms are different.

The acute form is, in fact, angina.

With this disease, the tonsils (most often palatine) suffer, being affected by various microorganisms. The patient feels a severe sore throat, weakness, his body temperature rises.

When examined by a doctor, other symptoms are also found.

Furacilin with tonsillitis, if the disease is acute, may be required in much larger quantities than, for example, with pharyngitis or laryngitis. To alleviate the patient's condition in the shortest possible time, gargle very often, every hour, taking breaks only for the night.

The chronic form of tonsillitis is sluggish, if the temperature rises, then in periods and not too high. However, the patient may complain of insomnia, headaches, discomfort in the throat, and bad breath. Most often, chronic tonsillitis occurs as a result of an untreated sore throat, so it is extremely important to follow everything that the doctor ordered. To avoid even greater complications, gargling with furacilin should be regular, at least 5 times a day.

With pharyngitis

A diagnosis such as pharyngitis is made when the lymphoid and mucous tissue of the pharynx becomes inflamed. The disease most often has a viral nature, accompanying ARVI.

In therapeutic and pediatric practice, cases of bacterial pharyngitis are also recorded, which can be caused by various pathogens: streptococci, chlamydia, mycoplasma, neisseria.

Symptoms that the patient himself may notice are the same as with tonsillitis, the final diagnosis is made by the doctor during the examination.

Sometimes you can hear the opinion that furacilin is not effective for pharyngitis. This statement is erroneous, because having an antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effect, this drug helps to cope with the disease much faster.

When rinsing, purulent discharge and mucus are removed, the infection stops spreading. Another thing is that furacilin alone in the case of diseases of the larynx is indispensable, the procedure is only an adjunct to the main treatment, in most cases antibiotic therapy is required.

Important! Treatment with furacilin gives good results, provided that the procedures are performed regularly.

Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

What is nitrofural?

The gross formula of nitrofural is C6H6N4O4.

Wikipedia states that one of the properties of nitrofuran compounds is light sensitivity. Therefore, the diluted solution should not be exposed to daylight. UV rays are especially destructive for furacilin solutions, which deeply and irreversibly damage the molecule. nitrofural .

Pharmacodynamics

Properties nitrofurans due to the presence of an aromatic nitro group in their molecule, which is similar to that in the molecule (chloramphenicol ).

Mechanism of action nitrofural different from the mechanism of action of other chemotherapy drugs: under the influence nitrofural from proteins of microbial cells (flavproteins), highly reactive amino derivatives are formed, which have the ability to change the conformation of macromolecules (including ribosomal proteins).

As a result, the tertiary and quaternary structure of the protein is deformed, the course of metabolic processes in the microbial cell is disrupted, and the cell dies.

The substance increases the absorption capacity of the macrophagic (reticuloendothelial) system and enhances phagocytosis .

Nitrofural effective against Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria, as well as against some protozoa and viruses. Sensitive to the drug are: Shigella (Sh. Dysenteriae, flexneri, boydii, sonnei), Escherichia coli, streptococci, staphylococci, Salmonella, Clostridium perfringens.

Resistance to nitrofural develops slowly, while it does not reach a high degree. The drug is effective in the resistance of the pathogen to other antimicrobial drugs (which are not derivatives nitrofuran ).

Nevertheless, in hospitals there are strains of microorganisms completely resistant to nitrofural.

Pharmacokinetics

When applied topically and locally nitrofural absorbed in very small quantities. The substance penetrates the histiocytic barriers and is evenly distributed in physiological fluids and body tissues.
