  • Date: 20.06.2020

Release form

Composition

For 1 suppository: The active substance is bisacodyl - 10 mg. ; Excipient - fatty acid glycerides (solid fat, witepsol H15)

Pharmacological effect

Combined antimicrobial drug. The effectiveness of the drug is due to the presence in its composition of such active ingredients as metronidazole and chlorhexidine. ; Metronidazole is a nitroimidazole derivative that has antiprotozoal and antibacterial action against anaerobic protozoa and anaerobic bacteria that cause periodontitis: Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, Prevotella denticola, Fusobacterium fusiformis, Eolinentilla spp. spp. ; Inactive against aerobic bacteria. ; The mechanism of action is the biochemical reduction of the 5-nitro group of metronidazole by intracellular transport proteins of anaerobic microorganisms and protozoa. The reduced 5-nitro group of metronidazole interacts with the DNA of the cell of microorganisms, inhibiting the synthesis of their nucleic acids, which leads to the death of bacteria. ; Chlorhexidine - disinfectant, active against a wide range of vegetative forms of gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms, yeast, dermatophytes and lipophilic viruses. It acts on bacterial spores only at elevated temperatures. The bactericidal effect is due to the binding of cations (the result of the dissociation of chlorhexidine salt in a physiological environment) with negatively charged walls of bacterial cells and extramicrobial complexes. In low concentrations, disrupting the osmotic balance of bacterial cells and the release of potassium and phosphorus ions from them, has a bacteriostatic effect; at high concentrations, the cytoplasmic content of the bacterial cell is deposited, which ultimately leads to the death of bacteria.

Indications

acute gingivitis; ; acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis Vincent; chronic edematous gingivitis; chronic hyperplastic gingivitis; ; chronic atrophic (desquamative) gingivitis; ; chronic periodontitis; periodontal abscess; recurrent aphthous (ulcerative) stomatitis; ; gangrenous pulpitis; ; post-extraction alveolitis; ; juvenile periodontitis; ; toothache of infectious origin.

Contraindications

Application during pregnancy and lactation

Method of administration and dosage

The product is intended for dental use only! ; Locally, after thoroughly brushing the teeth, rinse the mouth with a soda solution and wipe the gums with a dry cotton ball. Squeeze a small amount of the gel onto the toothbrush and apply the gel with the toothbrush to the gums and interdental spaces. After applying the gel, you can not rinse your mouth and eat for 30 minutes. Apply to the gum area 2 times / day.

Inactive against aerobic bacteria.

The mechanism of action consists in the biochemical reduction of the 5-nitro group by intracellular transport proteins of anaerobic microorganisms and protozoa. The reduced 5-nitro group of metronidazole interacts with the DNA of the cell of microorganisms, inhibiting the synthesis of their nucleic acids, which leads to the death of bacteria.

It acts on bacterial spores only at elevated temperatures.

At low concentrations, disrupting the osmotic balance of bacterial cells and the release of potassium and phosphorus ions from them, has a bacteriostatic effect; at high concentrations, the cytoplasmic content of the bacterial cell is deposited, which ultimately leads to the death of bacteria.

Indications

Acute gingivitis; acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis of Vincent; chronic edematous gingivitis; chronic hyperplastic gingivitis; chronic atrophic (desquamative) gingivitis; chronic periodontitis; periodontal abscess; recurrent aphthous (ulcerative) stomatitis; gangrenous pulpitis; post-extraction alveolitis; juvenile periodontitis; toothache of infectious origin.
