Do not self-medicate!
Miramistin is an antiseptic that was developed in our country and is able to fight various microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, protozoa. Also, the drug is able to stimulate the immune system. Miramistin is included in the radar (register medicines) In Russia and is sold in pharmacies without a prescription.
The active substance is benzyldimethylammonium chloride, which belongs to the category of surfactants (surfactants). The compound was developed in the late 1970s in the Soviet Union. It was supposed to be used to disinfect spaceships during extended flights. However, in the early 1990s, the drug became available to the general consumer.
Miramistin has three main types of action:
The mechanism of the antiseptic effect of the substance is based on the fact that it affects the lipid walls of the cells of microorganisms. In this case, the permeability of the walls is violated and microbes die. The drug is not toxic to the cells of the human body.
The immunostimulating effect is associated with the ability of the drug to increase the activity of phagocytes and macrophages.
The positive effect on wound healing is explained by the fact that Miramistin can serve as an absorbent substance that removes pus and fluid that occurs during inflammation of wounds. At the same time, the product does not irritate healthy tissues and does not interfere with the growth of new tissues.
The drug is active against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, bacteria that form spores, pathogens of sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis and gonorrhea. It is able to successfully fight hospital strains of bacteria that are resistant to a wide range of antibiotics. Moreover, the drug is most effective against gram-positive bacteria - streptococci and staphylococci. It is also active against fungi - dermatophytes, actinomycetes, pathogenic yeasts. There is reason to believe that it is active against various viruses - the herpes virus and HIV. Some studies suggest this.
One of the beneficial qualities of Miramistin is that when used externally, it does not penetrate the skin. This means that it does not enter the circulatory system and does not accumulate in the body.
There are only two forms of the drug - spray solution and ointment. Miramistin in the form of a cream, gel and tablets is not available.
Miramistin solution consists only of the active substance and water. Several types of bottles are available - with a capacity of 50, 100, 150, 250 and 500 ml. Miramistin with a volume of 150 ml, 100 ml and 250 ml can be supplied with a spray attachment. The 50 ml and 100 ml vials can be supplied with a urological applicator. The concentration of the active substance in the solution is 0.01%.
1 g of dry matter of the ointment contains 5 mg of Miramistin.
Also, the ointment contains:
It is used for disinfection of tissues, skin and mucous membranes located on the surface, as well as for the prevention of their infection with pathogens.
The scope of application of the drug is wide enough. It is used in the following areas of medicine:
Diseases for which Miramistin is used:
Contrary to popular belief, Miramistin is not very effective for hemorrhoids. It can only be used in the treatment of complications accompanying this disease - for example, cracks in anus... However, it does not affect the main cause of the disease - varicose veins veins. He is also unable to film. pain syndrome accompanied by hemorrhoids.
Both the ointment and the spray are used for children, especially when treating infections of the upper respiratory tract... However, it is not recommended to use the drug for children under 3 years of age.
With urethritis and urethroprostatitis, 5 ml of solution is injected into the urethra.
In the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases for women, up to 10 ml of solution is injected into the vagina, for men - 1 ml inside the urethra. This procedure should be carried out no later than two hours after sexual intercourse.
For the treatment of otitis media, 2 ml of the solution should be injected into the ear canal. You can also instill two drops of the drug into the passage 2-3 times a day.
In case of inflammation of the oral cavity - stomatitis and gingivitis, it is recommended to rinse the oral cavity with a solution of 10-15 ml 3-4 times a day.
At different types respiratory diseases - pharyngitis, tonsillitis, sinusitis, it is recommended to gargle with a solution. It is recommended to use 10-15 ml of solution for one rinse, the procedure should be carried out six times a day. Also at respiratory diseases for the treatment of cough, you can do inhalation with a solution. For this, the most suitable device for inhalation is a nebulizer. Inhalation should be done 3 times a day. For one inhalation, 4 ml of solution is needed.
The drug can be used to treat the common cold. For this, it is recommended to bury it in the nose. However, it should be borne in mind that the drug may be irritating to the nasopharyngeal mucosa.
For diseases of the upper respiratory tract, it is also recommended to irrigate the oral cavity with a nozzle. To make a spray from a bottle, you need to remove the cap from the bottle, attach a nozzle to the bottle and activate it by pressing. One press releases 3-5 ml of solution. A similar procedure must be done when acute pharyngitis or exacerbation chronic tonsillitis.
Children 3-6 years old do the procedure with one press on the nozzle, children 7-14 years old - with two presses, children over 14 years old and adults - with 3-4 presses. The procedure should be carried out 3-4 times a day. The duration of the course is 4-10 days and depends on the severity of the disease.
It is best to start treatment when the infection has not yet spread - in this case, it will be most effective.
When treating burns and wounds, the ointment must be applied in a thin layer to the surface of the wound or burned area of the skin. Cover the wound with a bandage. It is recommended to apply the ointment once a day.
When treating deep infections, Miramistin therapy should be combined with antibiotics.
When treating skin diseases, such as ringworm, the ointment is applied to the affected area twice a day and covered with a gauze bandage. However, drug therapy should be accompanied by the use of antifungal agents.
The medicine is considered to be relatively safe. The main contraindication is individual intolerance to the main component of the drug. For the ointment, intolerance to its auxiliary components may also appear.
It should be noted that the drug has been used relatively recently and therefore has not yet accumulated sufficient information indicating its side effects and the degree of security. Therefore, it is not recommended to use Miramistin during pregnancy and lactation. If there is an urgent need to use the drug during these periods, then treatment should be carried out after consulting a therapist.
The same can be said about the use of Miramistin for the treatment of children. To date, there is no sufficient evidence base on the safety of the drug for children. Therefore, the manufacturer does not recommend using it for the treatment of children under 3 years of age. If such a need arises, then in this case it is best to consult a pediatrician.
Unfortunately, the instructions for use of Miramistin are not described possible consequences drug intake into the digestive tract. But when rinsing your throat with this remedy, this is inevitable. It is clear that an adult will not intentionally swallow the medicine, but when a child uses it, a similar situation may arise. And this is another reason why the use of Miramistin for children may be unsafe.
The drug has few side effects. Sometimes a burning sensation may occur when applied to the skin. However, this phenomenon usually goes away quickly. It cannot be a reason for discontinuation of the drug. Avoid getting the drug in the eyes. For the treatment of eye diseases, Okomistin drops are produced containing the same active ingredient.
No negative interactions with other drugs were found in Miramistin. With the simultaneous use of other antibiotics, Miramistin is able to enhance their effect. Anionic surfactants (soap solutions) can reduce the effect of the drug.
There are few structural analogues of the drug at the moment. This:
Among the funds that have a different composition, chlorhexidine is very close to Miramistin in terms of action and spectrum of application. The price of Miramistin is higher, but it has fewer contraindications. In addition, Miramistin has not been used for so long clinical practice, which means that fewer microorganisms managed to develop resistance to it.
