Review: Solution for topical use Infamed Miramistin 0.01% - Inhalations with Miramistin in a nebulizer are an effective remedy for the common cold for both children and adults!

effect, multifaceted application

General impression: Inhalations with Miramistin in a nebulizer are an effective remedy for a runny nose for both children and adults!

Table of contents:

I have a child with very health problems. But our pediatrician always said that we definitely need to go to the garden. Our pediatrician is really very competent, many times I was convinced that her words or diagnoses were correct. I think that children should be sent to kindergarten at 3-4 years old. Even closer to 4, then adaptation is easier and the child does not receive such enormous stress.

We were terribly sick in the garden. But in the first grade we got sick 1 time within 2 weeks during the entire school year. This is actually a record, because we hook everything up easily and quickly.

True, in the garden they didn’t suffer from anything serious except viruses and snot and cough. But at the first sign, I removed the child from kindergarten. And she kept her at home until she fully recovered. It didn’t lead to serious illness. We stayed at home for 3 weeks, then went to the garden for 5 days, then back home. But right before school they stopped getting sick and didn’t get sick at all for a long time. As our pediatrician predicted, the immune system adapted. She strengthened. answer

At one time I also read and heard a lot about this topic)) Everyone expresses different opinions and everyone is sure that he is right! answer

Mine was never sick before kindergarten, she started at 2.4 years old, but I’m not a fan of putting a child at home in a spacesuit, so that by the time he finally goes out into the world, he’ll be “stunned” by strangers and foreign bacteria that are unfamiliar to him! answer

Miramistin inhalation reviews

As for Miramistin... in my opinion, the doctor himself should do such inhalations and check for himself how it works. Don't torture your child!

P/S: we need to come up with something like this..mineral water and miramistin..(((where is medicine going..sad..

In general, you get thrush from unnecessary thoughts, these drugs don’t cause thrush

We now have white and thick ones,

I just forgot to clarify: Miramistin should be dripped with a mark or sprayed with a spray. which is correct?

Antiseptic agent ZAO "Infamed" Miramistin - review

Miramistin is suitable for inhalation for a child, and also saved me during pregnancy!

For spraying on a sore throat, Miramistin doesn’t really help me, I don’t know why.

But if you do inhalations with it, it is very effective! I was convinced both on myself and on the child. And our pediatrician recommended it to us for inhalation!

In short, it helps with inhalation both for a sore throat and snot, and especially helps with coughs. (the only thing, of course, is not to do inhalation when you have a fever, otherwise the infection may go down! Only when there is no fever)

I pour about 3 ml of Miramistin (sometimes diluted with Sodium Chloride 50/50, sometimes straight Miramistin) into the inhaler and that’s it, and I do this 2 times a day. Both for the child and for yourself.

He especially saved me during pregnancy! I got infected from my child and started coughing, this cough really upset me, it was strong, even with phlegm. I was scared. The doctor advised to do inhalations with Miramistin, because... It can be used by pregnant women.

And I started doing inhalations with it 2 times a day and the cough subsided! Everything passed in about 5 days. It was a miracle.

Of course, I recommend Miramistin, especially for inhalation. A very effective and safe product.

I don’t remember the price, the only thing I can say is that the bottle is big, it lasts me more than a year!

Dario recommends the antiseptic agent "Infamed" JSC Miramistin

If in doubt, ask your pediatrician.

My friend also went to a paid clinic with the coolest ENT specialist in our city, he also recommended that she do inhalations with Miromistin. She has a son in second grade, she does it for him.

If in doubt, ask your pediatrician.

My friend also went to a paid clinic with the coolest ENT specialist in our city, he also recommended that she do inhalations with Miromistin. She has a son in second grade, she does it for him.

Now I’m sick, it started with a runny nose and went downhill. I started to feel a lot of pain in my chest, and it was about to turn into a cough. Yesterday I took inhalations with Miromistin twice a day, and there is practically no pain in my chest anymore. I already wanted to take an antibiotic, I hope everything will go away in two or three days!

A miracle for pennies. Recommended for adults and children!

I met Miramistin by chance: I was in the hospital with my child and the doctor prescribed Miramistin for the throat and nose for adenovirus. Since then I have become a real fan of this product. The manufacturer states: The spectrum of its action is simply impressive, although I only tried it on one side.

For a child with a sore throat and indeed for all occasions

Hi all. I would like to dedicate this short review to such a miracle drug as Miramistin. I bought it in the form of a spray to spray the throat of a 3-year-old child with a sore throat. Our pediatrician prescribed it to us. But I still read the reviews before purchasing and was surprised at how wide the spectrum of its action is.

It is even prescribed to be sprayed into the mouths of small children for coughs!

My review of the familiar Miramistin. I met him for the first time after the TERRIBLE itching THERE during my first pregnancy. I was almost in withdrawal; I couldn’t think of anything else. And I urgently needed to go to a cool international exhibition. Concentration was needed.

And you still don’t have this thing in your first aid kit?!

If I could give this product 10 stars, I would give it all 10! An amazing broad-spectrum drug. Every person should have it in their first aid kit, especially if there is a small child in the house. Don't be alarmed when you read the instructions. This is a safe product.

Inhalation with miramistin

Inhalations with Miramistin

The doctor told us that 1 to 1 saline and miramistin

I did it, just with miramistin, non-saline solution

Inhalations with miramistin

When Osip was in the hospital, one doctor advised my brother to take a syringe and an ampoule of vitamin B12. Sprinkle half an ampoule down your throat and then spit it out. So for two days. 2 ampoules are enough.

We have never been prescribed with miramistin... if you are not sure, then maybe. Should I do it with mineral water or saline solution? It’s also good with rotokan, but that’s only if the inhaler allows it.

We did, but at 4 years old

inhalations on Miramistin, who did it

we did, yes, 1 to 1 saline and miramistin. And also with lazolvan

We were recently prescribed 1:1

Inhalations with Miramistin

We just did it with miramistin, everything was ok

I haven’t done it with miramistim

Inhalations with miramistin

What do you want? The girl wrote to me 2 physical. 1 Miramistin

This is the first time I've heard of this. Only saline + ambrobene

Tell me who did inhalations with Miramistin

Viferon ointment in the nose and Viferon suppositories.

Inhalation with miramistin for incipient sinusitis. Nebulizer.

Inhalations.. what and how?

I am against self-medication... I always consult with a doctor... and if something doesn’t suit me, I go to another... by the way... by asking for another immunologist, we received a free trip to a health resort for our son.

Why didn’t they write that it’s not advisable to use a drug like Berodual often, it’s highly addictive... and there are a lot of other drugs out there too, or are you wondering where I found it right?

Thank you! a lot of useful information!

Did you know? about Miramistin

Miramistin was always prescribed to us, the youngest almost from birth

it has no contraindications other than individual intolerance

This is a topical antifungal drug; it is not absorbed through the skin and mucous membranes

Well, as my life experience shows, the presence of credentials, certificates and doctorates among doctors is not an indicator of their experience and knowledge

Tantum Verde was also written from the age of 3, but the doctors prescribed it to us from the age of 9 months, they also told us not to look at the instructions ((and I sprayed because the baby had Tempra 39, he was already taking pills from me then I couldn’t, even diluted with water, so you always have to choose the lesser of two evils.

Nikula get well soon!

Inhalation with Miramistin

I had never heard of inhalations before.

I treated my son’s throat with it, sprayed it, it helped a lot, and she treated a runny nose while she was pregnant, did inhalations, it also helped a lot

Miramistin inhalation?

We don’t have an inhaler, well, as I understand it, it’s a useful thing, but it seems like you need to hold a baby so that he can breathe (he’ll probably cry), I think when he grows up, we’ll buy it or give it to him))

about snot, drops, suction, throat, inhalation. many questions!

a month ago, my little one also had a cold, or rather, I infected him, even though I wore a mask. I tormented the child by sucking out snot, tormented him to such an extent that he became afraid when I laid him on our bed! I got scared, then a relative - she is a nurse with a lot of experience, she worked in the children's department and in the ambulance, she basically said that the more you suck, the more milk will come, it's like with milk in the breast, the more you express, the more milk comes. I stopped sucking, and just wiped my nose, slightly pressing my nostrils, to collect what was just leaking, and when it was squelching, vibrocil was already dripping - it has a drying effect, I drop it with a vibration and hold it in a lying position, I calm it down, after 15 minutes, a little less nozzles, and again I only collect what jumps out, then next time I drop rhinofluimucil - it also dries and allows the nose to breathe, it also has a mucolic property, that is, it removes everything that is unnecessary there, that is, they flow out themselves instead of suction and then dry out, also Kalanchoe 1 drop before bed, he puts it on and a vibrocil on top... the sniffles went away in 3 days and without much pain for the baby

That's a lot for such a kid. We did this with snot, first I dripped aquamaris a couple of times so that the snot was thinner, then I sucked it out with Otrivin, if it didn’t help, we first breathed in saline solution, then I dripped it and after 5 minutes I sucked it out. She screamed like crazy, but she could eat and her nose was breathing. In the first 5 days after cleaning, Nazivin was dripped. Then the snot actually turned green and I had to drip more isofru. Our cough was caused by sniffles, so I didn’t give anything at all. I treated my throat with vinyl + miramitin and simply smeared vinylin and miramitin spray on the nipple, it was much easier than breathing through a nebulizer. And she put on Viferon suppositories, and she breathed through a nebulizer with interferon diluted with water. Your doctor is strange((

Miramistin for babies!

compress: melt honey, dry mustard, sunflower oil, flour (2 tablespoons each) over heat (do not boil), put on cheesecloth, place like mustard plasters. Ambrobene is also a cough solution, which can also be used in a nebulizer.

Miramistin for inhalation with saline solution is good, water and soda inhalation is also good, massage with regular cream 2 times a day

Miramistin

Miramistin

We started using it as soon as I started to get sick, I also did inhalations with Miramistin, it helped us.

Can a phlegm cough be cured with inhalations alone? My son got sick today after having diarrhea((((

It seems to me that an allergy to herbs is less likely. In order to poison all living creatures, we drink only pyobacteriophage complex (100 ml in a bottle), but we don’t drink enterofuril, it severely suppresses the beneficial microflora and it makes us terribly rash (if you drink a suspension, it may also affect you)

I treated my daughter’s cough this way, the syrup didn’t help and I decided to do only inhalations, only I took the medicine, bought mineral water at the pharmacy, cured the cough in a week, I ventilated the nursery often and the humidifier worked, it also sucks on the milk ((we eat dairy-free porridge(

Mukaltin tablets are available for cough. just read about the dosage on the Internet... I don’t remember how old you were at your age... we’ve been drinking them since we were a year old. They help! or inhalation with Ambrobene?

Inhalations

Dry cough inhalation, tell me

The doctor prescribed us medicine for a dry cough and told us. that when it turns into wet, then start doing inhalations

Yes, so that the phlegm comes out quickly

With saline solution

Drink more, humidify the air at home

Urgent question - "Miramistin" for inhalation in a nebulizer

Question: is it possible to use "Miramistin"? (the one that can be sprayed anywhere) used for inhalation in a nebulizer.

The doctor has now recommended (that is, there will be no other consultations today), but I can’t make sense of this prescription of the drug about “and there.” and here. " and even into the bronchi(((

He didn't like the hoarse voice. And I’m sick of doing experiments instead of the usual cough inhalation at night.

The child is six years old.

I was sure that I would never create SUCH a topic.

Plus, you need to know the principle of operation of the nebulizer and what it is needed for. Miramistin has no place for application in the lungs

throat - you can gargle

Official solutions are poured into the nebulizer. not official, but official, that is, those that are approved specifically for inhalation through a nebulizer. nowhere, not a single guide on using a nebulizer contains miramistin. but the fantasies of Russian doctors on this topic are endless

I was just confused by the lack of indications for use.

Based on this information, I consider the topic closed.

Miramistin for inhalation with a nebulizer: instructions. Reviews

Everyone, young and old, is susceptible to colds. It has long been proven that inhalations are among the most effective methods of treating them, one type of which is inhalation with Miramistin in a nebulizer.

This method of drug administration ensures maximum penetration depth and dosage accuracy, which quickly alleviates symptoms and leads to recovery.

Miramistin for inhalation: indications for use

This product is completely tasteless and odorless, which makes it an excellent treatment for picky babies. The drug is a strong antiseptic, thanks to which it is able to destroy a large number of pathogens, including viruses and fungi.

Molecules of the active substance bind to the lipids of the cell membranes of microbes, thereby penetrating into their structure and causing the cessation of reproduction and death. Therefore, doctors often recommend dripping Miramistin into the nose or inhaling it.

In addition, the drug helps increase the sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics and activates local immunity. Therefore, the medicine is used everywhere. In ENT practice, it is used as part of complex therapy to combat acute and chronic:

  • sinusitis, especially sinusitis;
  • tonsillitis and tonsillitis;
  • otitis;
  • laryngitis, tracheitis and bronchitis;
  • glossitis;
  • adenoiditis.

Inhalations are also indicated for preventing the development of viral diseases during epidemics, treating acute respiratory viral infections, suppressing signs of herpetic infection and accelerating the recovery of the mucous membranes of the esophagus, oral cavity, bronchi, and trachea in case of chemical burns.

In any case, maximum effectiveness is achieved only when the procedures are started at the very beginning of the development of the disease.

The use of the medication allows:

  • facilitate the discharge of sputum;
  • thin out thick snot and gradually reduce its amount;
  • accelerate the healing of injured mucous membranes;
  • increase the effectiveness of antibiotics taken, even when infected with extremely resistant (resistant to their action) nosocomial strains of bacteria;
  • prevent the transition of an acute form of pathology to a chronic one;
  • quickly stop and eliminate the purulent process.

Is it possible to do inhalations with Miramistin for children and adults?

Many people are interested in whether such manipulations are performed on children? Since the drug is absolutely safe, it can easily be used to treat children.

But due to the fact that many nebulizer manufacturers recommend inhalation only for babies over 12 months old, children under one year old should only drip the medication into the nose or make applications with it.

That is, soak cotton pads with the medicine and insert them into the baby’s nostrils for 10–15 minutes.

But you can close only one nasal passage at a time, since babies do not yet know how to breathe through their mouths. Although there are exceptions.

In other cases, the procedure is carried out through a nebulizer. There are several types of such devices:

Steam. Devices of this kind are a modernized “pot of boiled potatoes.” It is designed in such a way that it allows you to regulate the temperature of the steam, thereby reducing the risk of burns to the mucous membranes. But under the influence of high temperatures, many components of drugs are destroyed, so it is mainly used for inhaling hot vapors of decoctions and herbal infusions. Ultrasonic. The liquid is sprayed due to high-frequency vibrations, and the size of each droplet formed does not exceed 5 microns. This allows them to penetrate almost unhindered into the lower respiratory tract and exert their therapeutic effect. Such devices operate silently and are compact, but ultrasound destroys many medications: antibiotics, corticosteroids and mucolytics. Therefore, the scope of their use is quite limited.

Compressor. These devices consist of a chamber for medicinal solutions and a compressor that pumps air. Actually, it is thanks to the action of compressed air that the liquid is sprayed into particles up to 5 microns in size.

Such inhalers do not in any way affect the composition of the medication, so absolutely any mixture of medications can be filled into them.

The disadvantages of the device are its large size, weight (some models) and compressor noise during operation.

Although when treating small children, the heaviness of the device can become more of an advantage than a negative side, since this will not allow the little one to knock it over.

A compressor inhaler has the optimal balance between efficiency and breadth of application, although ultrasonic models can also be used for manipulation in certain situations.

In both cases, the liquid is sprayed into tiny particles, which easily penetrate the respiratory tract and have a therapeutic effect at the site of the inflammatory process.

There are no special recommendations on how to prepare Miramistin solution for inhalation in a compression nebulizer. To do this, just pour 4 ml of pure or diluted in an age-appropriate dosage into it. drug.

Contraindications

Procedures are not performed if the patient has an elevated body temperature (more than 38°C). They are also contraindicated for:

  • open forms of tuberculosis;
  • bronchial asthma;
  • diabetes mellitus;
  • pulmonary or heart failure;
  • problems with blood clotting, including thrombocytopenia.

Also, manipulation should not be carried out if an allergy to Miramistin was previously noticed, which is extremely rare. Otherwise, bronchospasm, Quincke's edema or anaphylactic shock may occur.

Usually the drug is well tolerated, although sometimes parents’ concerns about whether inhalation with it is dangerous are justified. Indeed, in isolated cases, bleeding from the throat or nose may occur. If this occurs, you should immediately stop the procedure and consult a doctor.

Inhalations with Miramistin for a child: how to do it?

Before pouring Miramistin into the nebulizer, children should be sure to dilute it with saline (the instructions for most devices prohibit diluting medications with water, even mineral water) in the following proportion:

  • 1:3 for children from 1 to 3 years old;
  • 1:2 for preschoolers;
  • 1:1 for children from 7 to 14 years old.

How many times a day the procedures are performed is also determined by the age of the patient. So, the youngest are allowed a maximum of 3-4 sessions, preschoolers - 5, and older children and teenagers - 5-6.

But many pediatricians are confident that children do not need such a high dosage; they believe that 2-3 procedures per day are sufficient for progressive improvement.

You also need to know how to inhale correctly and follow these rules to avoid side effects.

Properly preparing the solution is not enough; you also need to breathe properly. During the manipulation, breathing should be even and calm, and for diseases of the nose, you should inhale steam through a mask with your nose or use special nozzles, and for a sore throat and cough, use your mouth.

Exceeding the dose or duration of inhalation can lead to burns of the mucous membrane.

Inhalations for children under one year old

If the device at home allows it, there are no contraindications and the pediatrician advises, then you can resort to inhalation therapy even when treating infants.

For them, Miramistin is diluted 1:4, and the duration of the session ranges from 3–5 minutes. But you can start such therapy strictly as prescribed by your pediatrician!

For adults

The method of application generally does not differ from how to use the product when treating children. But the duration of one procedure for an adult should be about 15 minutes.

In this case, the patient must breathe shallowly if the mucous membrane in one or another part of the nose is inflamed, and deeply if the lower respiratory tract is affected.

The instructions recommend not diluting the drug at all when treating adults and children over 12 years of age at home. But if noticeable discomfort occurs when inhaling the product, you should consult a therapist and find out how to dilute Miramistin for inhalation specifically for you.

However, it is usually enough to use half the recommended dose, that is, take the same volume of saline solution for 1 ml of medication.

Recipes

Thus, Miramistin can be used to treat most ENT diseases by patients of any age. In some cases, to increase the effectiveness of therapy, doctors recommend using several medications. It is not advisable to mix them, and a break of 15–20 minutes is required between procedures.

Bronchodilators. Drugs in this group promote dilation of the bronchi, so they are prescribed for obstructive pathologies of the respiratory system, in particular for laryngitis and obstructive bronchitis. These are: Berodual, Ventolin, Berotek, Atrovent and others. Since they require high dosing accuracy, only a specialist should select the amount of the product for one dose and the degree of its dilution in each individual case. Mucolytics. Drugs in this group dilute mucus, thereby facilitating its elimination. These include ACC, Fluimucil, Lazolvan, Ambroxol, Bronchipret, Ambrobene, etc. Anti-inflammatory drugs and antiseptics. These medications help eliminate the inflammatory process and eliminate pathogenic microflora. Miramistin is the representative of this group. In addition to it, Chlorhexidine and Dioxidine have similar properties. Antibiotics are also administered last.

Recipe with saline solution

This is a classic option. The features of its implementation and dose are discussed above. This method is ideal for preventing the development of colds and ARVI.

As part of complex therapy, Miramistin can also be used for angina. In such situations, inhalation is combined with local or systemic antibiotics, although sometimes they are also prescribed in inhalation form.

Recipe with Lazolvan

The main component of Lazolvan is ambroxol, which reduces the viscosity of sputum and facilitates its removal. To treat children under 12 years of age, you should buy children's syrup with a dose of ambroxol 15 mg/5 ml. For adults, syrup with a dosage of 30 mg/5 ml is more suitable.

The product can be used for:

For children under 2 years of age, inhalation is carried out with a mixture of 1 ml of syrup with 1 ml of saline solution. The rest are indicated for the administration of a solution obtained from 2 ml of Lazolvan and 2 ml of saline solution.

Recipe with Erespal syrup

Erespal contains fenspiride. This substance is unique in its properties and helps well with both dry and wet coughs. Therefore, it is ideal for colds, adenoids, and all kinds of bronchitis, tracheitis, etc.

But inhalations are usually not done with it. But taking Erespal in an age-appropriate dose and then inhaling with Miramistin is very effective. This will help quickly transform a dry, annoying, painful cough into a short wet one.

Recipe Miramistin and Fluimucil

The active ingredient of Fluimucil is acetylcysteine, which facilitates the removal of sputum by reducing its viscosity. It also produces an anti-inflammatory effect.

  • for bronchitis, laryngotracheitis, tracheitis and pneumonia;
  • nasal inhalations are used for green snot caused by acute or chronic sinusitis;
  • for otitis, etc.

For inhalation, purchase Fluimucil in ampoules, which are diluted with an equal volume of saline solution. Depending on the age of the patient, different amounts of the prepared solution are used. So:

  • 1 ml – for children from 2 to 6 years old;
  • 2 ml – for children from 6 to 12 years old;
  • 3 ml – for adults and teenagers.

During pregnancy

For a runny nose or any other colds, Miramistin can be used during pregnancy, as well as during breastfeeding.

Because it acts solely locally, it is not absorbed into the systemic circulation and cannot harm the developing fetus.

The drug is used in adult dosages without any adjustments. In many cases, it is the only salvation for women, since most modern medications are contraindicated for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Reviews

There is a compressor nebulizer at home. We mainly treat children with it, but this time I decided to try inhalation with this drug myself. I poured Miramistin and saline solution about half into the nebulizer reservoir.

You need to breathe for a minute. To achieve the best effect after the procedure, do not eat or drink for minutes. The next day I repeated it, also did 2 inhalations, also drank Kagocel and a lot of tea with raspberries and lemon. Over the weekend I almost recovered. Does Miramistin help in the form of inhalations? I think so, yes, they really helped me. Evgeniya, 27 years old

Inhalation time is from ten to fifteen minutes, 1-2 times a day. Inhalations were repeated until the child recovered for about 4-5 days.

If you spray it down your throat, it doesn't help at all. It's like water. But inhalation with it is very effective. My daughter and I were personally convinced of this. Our pediatrician recommended it. It helps well with a sore throat, cough and snot. Svetlana, 31 years old

The drug has almost no taste or smell, and does not irritate the mucous membranes. We do inhalations three times a day. You need to remember that after the procedure you need to abstain from food and water for some time. I recommend this product as safe and effective. But of course the price is a little high. Andrey, 40 years old

It was said not just to breathe, but according to the scheme: Inhale through the Nose, Exhale through the mouth. And also use not only a mask, but also nasal cannulas, as they are called. This is a thing that is inserted into the nose and you can breathe through it (it comes with the nebulizer). Inhalation 2-3 times a day.

The advantage is that the aerosol cloud, when it hits the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract, not only dries, but also disinfects. Has an antimicrobial effect. In general, several procedures were enough for us to stop the child’s profuse nasal discharge. Olga Vasilievna, 45 years old

Inhalations with miramistin in a nebulizer for children

Inhalation of various medications using a nebulizer helps deliver medications into the child's airways. This enhances the therapeutic effect of the drugs and speeds up recovery. Among the drugs used for nebulizer inhalations, a group of antiseptics is distinguished. One of the representatives of this group is a drug with a wide range of applications, called miramistin.

Why are they needed?

Inhalations, during which miramistin is poured into a nebulizer, accelerate relief from colds and other diseases of the respiratory organs, including purulent diseases. The procedures have an antimicrobial effect and promote the healing of damage to the mucous membranes.

Indications

Procedures with miramistin in childhood are recommended for:

Miramistin has been repeatedly studied and proven that using this antiseptic in children is completely safe. In addition, the advantages of using such a drug for nebulizer inhalation are the lack of taste and smell.

Contraindications

Inhalations with miramistin are unacceptable in case of bleeding of the mucous membrane of the oral or nasal cavity.

Also, such procedures are not carried out when:

  • bronchiectasis;
  • tuberculosis;
  • exacerbation of bronchial asthma;
  • pneumothorax;
  • pulmonary or heart failure;
  • individual intolerance;
  • diabetes mellitus type 1.

Dosage and instructions for use

For inhalation, a liquid form of the drug is used. There is no need to dilute Miramistin with water. It is more preferable to use an ultrasonic nebulizer model for such procedures, since a device of this type breaks the drug into smaller particles, which prevents the occurrence of burns to the mucous membrane. The recommended duration of inhalations with this drug is from 5 to 15 minutes, taking into account the age of the child.

Features of the use of miramistin in the form of inhalations for various diseases:

The drug is prescribed for wet and barking cough in order to cleanse the mucous membranes of sputum, bacterial agents and dead leukocytes.

Inhalations should be done immediately after rhinitis appears. The drug is also effective for purulent runny nose, but less than in the first days of the disease.

Miramistin is especially recommended for the chronic form of the disease, since it both destroys pathogenic bacteria and improves the condition of the mucous membrane.

The drug has shown its positive effect in chronic adenoiditis. It resists the bacterial flora of the nasopharynx, improves the outflow of sputum and prevents the disease from developing into more complex forms.

Miramistin is recommended both for the acute form and in case of exacerbation of the chronic form, when purulent diseases appear.

The drug is capable of destroying fungal cells, even if they are resistant to antifungal drugs. The prescription of miramistin for candida lesions is due to its disinfectant and regenerating effect.

Recommended doses of the drug for nebulizer inhalations:

Miramistin dose for one inhalation

How much saline to add?

No saline solution is added

Reviews

Anna: “We were treated with a spray with miramistin, and there was no particular effect. Then the pediatrician recommended inhalation with this drug. And the child’s condition really improved. Later, inhalations with miramistin helped me during pregnancy. In just 5 days I got rid of a very bad cough with phlegm.”

Elena: “For my 5-year-old daughter, a runny nose has become a real problem. We tried different treatments, but they didn't help for long. Finally we got to an ENT specialist, who prescribed inhalations with Miramistin. First I tried the medicine on myself. Having felt no side effects, we began to perform procedures on our daughter. Within a week the runny nose was gone.”

Miramistin is an antiseptic for the treatment of bacterial, fungal and viral infections.

Miramistin is one of the drugs that were developed, researched and patented in our country.

Before you continue reading: If you are looking for an effective method of getting rid of a runny nose, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, bronchitis or colds, then be sure to look at this section of the site after reading this article. This information has helped so many people, we hope it will help you too! So, now back to the article.

The antiseptic was synthesized back in the 70s of the last century, during the rapid development of Soviet space. The researchers faced a difficult task: they had to create a product that could be used both to treat the hands of astronauts and to disinfect the surfaces of a spacecraft. Particularly difficult was the fact that the antiseptic was planned to be used in difficult conditions of weightlessness.

The country's leading chemists and doctors from Moscow, Kyiv and Simferopol took part in the research. The inventor of Miramistin is considered to be the famous Soviet researcher in the field of medicine, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor Krivoshein, who patented the new drug. Subsequently, it was Krivoshein who spent many years researching his brainchild, proving its effectiveness and searching for release forms.

However, the difficulties that befell the Soviet Union 10 years later, and later the collapse of the country, caused many research programs to stop. Only in 1991, research on Miramistin was resumed by private investors, and the drug itself was registered as a medicine.

The thorny path to popularity

Interestingly, the first indication for Miramistin was the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases. Subsequently, scientists proved the activity of the drug against many other pathogens.

Almost 30 years later, the drug has become one of the most popular antiseptics in Russia and the CIS countries. Surprise and some caution are caused by the fact that Miramistin never took his step to the west. Our antiseptic is not used in any foreign country. Foreign scientists have not published a single work on the study of Miramistin. And this despite fairly in-depth research conducted in our country.

Let’s try to figure out what a real Russian antiseptic is. And perhaps we will find the answer to the question why Miramistin did not conquer the West?

Composition of Miramistin. Properties of the active substance

So let's take a closer look at this medicine. Under the rather euphonious name “Miramistin” hides a long inorganic formula with a completely unpronounceable name, which we do not dare reproduce. Let's just say that the drug is a diluted solution (only 0.01%) of the active substance in water.

Visual characteristics of Miramistin may vary. Thus, the color of the solution varies from colorless to yellowish. However, regardless of color, the medicine must remain completely transparent.

If, when shaking a bottle of antiseptic, you get some kind of foaming liquid, do not worry. These are absolutely normal physical and chemical properties of the drug. After all, Miramistin contains a surfactant - a surfactant that can reduce surface tension. Let us remember that the creation of all detergents is based on the qualities of various surfactants. Therefore, in some respects, Miramistin is not only an antiseptic, but also a skin care product.

Release forms: there are no limits to imagination

The flight of thought of pharmacists who are developing new forms of release of Miramistin can truly be envied. Probably no other antiseptic competes with our drug in this regard. Let's remember a bottle of Chlorhexidine: a very modest bottle with a short nozzle. No imagination!

So, we list the main forms of release of Miramistin.

— for use in otorhinolaryngology:

  • aerosols with spray nozzles for local irrigation of the throat and nasal cavity;
  • gargling solution in bottles;
  • dropper bottles for intranasal use, that is, simply drops in the nose;
  • drops in the ears;

— for use in dermatology — external ointments containing Miramistin 0.5%;

- application in urology - bottles with a urological applicator, which allows you to irrigate the urethra;

— for use in gynecology — Miramistin bottles equipped with syringe attachments for vaginal douching;

— for use in combustiology, surgery, dentistry, traumatology — bottles with spray nozzles for external use;

- use in ophthalmic practice - dropper bottles containing a sterile solution of Miramistin in the form of eye drops.

Agree, the choice is really wide. Therefore, when purchasing medicine, be careful. Despite the fact that the concentration of the drug in solutions is always the same - 0.01% - the nozzles, as we have seen, are very specific. Do not hesitate to tell your pharmacist for what purposes you plan to use Miramistin. And then you won’t have to adapt a urethral applicator to irrigate your throat or nose.

Treatment with Miramistin: how does the antiseptic work?

The mechanism of the therapeutic action of Miramistin is based on its surface-active properties. The active substance is capable of interacting with lipids in the membranes of pathogenic microorganisms. In this case, the antiseptic molecule practically penetrates into the membrane and contributes to its destruction. As a result of the active activity of the antiseptic, the attacked cell dies.

A completely unique property of Miramistin can be called its selectivity. The drug perfectly “recognizes” healthy cells of the human body and does not react to them in any way. Scientists were able to explain this “phenomenon”: in fact, it is due to the special structure of the cell membranes of our body.

Miramistin solution: spectrum of pharmacological activity

Let's move on to the most informative part of the article from a pharmacological point of view. What microorganisms are sensitive to Miramistin solution?

So, the drug has a bactericidal effect against:

  • staphylococci;
  • streptococci, including Streptococcus pneumoniae. Note that it is staphylococci and streptococci that are the causative agents of most catarrhal infections.

Acute intestinal infections, as a rule, are associated with strains of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella.

  • aspergillus;
  • penicillin mushrooms;
  • yeast fungi;
  • yeast-like fungi, including opportunistic fungi of the genus Candida;
  • dermatophytes.
  • herpes viruses type 1 and 2;
  • HIV - immunodeficiency virus.

microorganisms that are sexually transmitted

  • chlamydia;
  • Treponema pallidum - the causative agent of syphilis;
  • trichomonas;
  • the causative agent of gonorrhea, Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

The use of Miramistin - prevention of nosocomial infections

Separately, I would like to note the effectiveness of the antiseptic against hospital strains of microorganisms. Already from the name “hospital” it may be clear that these pathogens are directly related to the hospital.

Indeed, some infections break out in clinical settings. Remember how often you hear sad stories about patients who fell ill with pneumonia in the hospital. Or purulent sore throat in children or adults. This is not idle talk, but a real nosocomial infection.

Despite strict antiseptic measures, it is the hospital that becomes the ideal breeding ground for the most virulent, that is, pathogenic microorganisms. And the saddest thing about the existence of hospital-acquired infections is that most strains are resistant to broad-spectrum antibiotics.

Scientists under the leadership of Professor Krivoshein have proven that the Miramistin solution helps, that is, it works against infection with both common E. coli and a resistant strain of Staphylococcus aureus.

This means that prophylactic local use of Miramistin helps to avoid hospital infections of the ENT organs. External use when treating hands and surfaces is one of the ways to significantly reduce the likelihood of the spread of nosocomial infection.

Advantages or what is better than the new antiseptic?

There are quite a lot of antiseptic drugs for local and external use on the pharmaceutical market. Therefore, a new tool has to prove its advantages not in words, but in deeds.

Scientists under the leadership of Krivoshein conducted a comparative analysis of various antiseptics and looked for an answer to the question: what is better - Miramistin or the old proven antiseptics? The researchers came to the conclusion that the benefits of the new drug are due to its unique properties, namely:

1. the ability to resist almost any pathogenic microorganisms: bacteria, viruses, fungi, as well as intracellular pathogens;

2. wide application in medicine, ranging from the treatment of sore throats and ending with the treatment of sunburn;

3. the ability to reduce the resistance of microorganisms to antibiotics. Let us remember that about 90% of staphylococcus strains, including the well-known Staphylococcus aureus, are insensitive to penicillins and cephalosporins;

4. the ability to stimulate a local immune response;

5. antiseptic stimulates rapid repair, that is, healing and restoration of damaged tissues;

6. Miramistin actively prevents contamination of the wound or burn surface;

7. the antiseptic does not irritate the mucous membranes, and also does not cause an allergic reaction even in sensitive patients;

8. The drug does not require special preparations before use: the 0.01% solution is completely ready for use.

Medicine in the practice of an ENT doctor

Over the years of use, Miramistin has taken its rightful place among local antiseptics, which are used for the prevention and treatment of many catarrhal infections. Despite the fact that this remedy is not indicated in standard treatment protocols, many doctors trust it.

So, among the indications for use it is worth noting:

- inflammation of the outer and middle ear

The drug is indicated for the treatment of acute and chronic otitis media. Miramistin ear drops contain a 0.1% solution of the active substance. Let us add that both water and ethyl alcohol can serve as a solvent.

- sinusitis, sinusitis, sinusitis

For purulent sinusitis (inflammation of the paranasal sinuses), an antiseptic is used to rinse the cavity and instill it in the form of nasal drops. During clinical studies at Moscow clinics, it was found that the effectiveness of a 0.01% solution of Miramistin for a runny nose is higher than that of another leading antiseptic - Chlorhexidine. Recovery of patients treated with Miramistin occurs several days earlier.

For allergic sinusitis, the use of the drug can significantly reduce swelling of the nasal mucosa and restore breathing, and, therefore, abandon the use of vasoconstrictor drops. And this is important. After all, allergy sufferers are at risk for drug-induced rhinitis, which occurs as a result of long-term use of the same naphthyzine.

For frontal sinuses (inflammation of the frontal sinuses) and sinusitis (inflammation of the maxillary sinuses), the medicine is administered by puncture. As in the case of sinusitis, scientists have proven the superior effectiveness of a 0.01% Miramistin solution.

Separately, I would like to note that Miramistin, unlike Chlorhexidine, as a rule, does not cause irritation of the mucous membrane.

- diseases of the larynx and pharynx - tonsillitis, pharyngitis, laryngitis

Miramistin is part of the complex treatment of inflammatory diseases of the throat and pharynx, including for young children. I would like to note the equal effectiveness of Miramistin for angina of any etiology: both viral and bacterial.

What is better for a sore throat: Miramistin spray or solution?

Very often, patients are faced with a choice: what to buy - a spray or a rinse solution? Or are lollipops better?

And really, what is more effective for throat diseases - an aerosol or a solution of Miramistin? Let's try to figure it out and answer this question.

The treatment regimen for any viral pharyngitis or tonsillitis is not complete without the use of local antiseptic drugs. We must not forget that in the case of a bacterial nature of the disease, the first-line remedy is, of course, an antibiotic. But treatment should always be comprehensive, and it simply must include local remedies.

The pharmaceutical industry produces the following as local antiseptics for throat diseases:

— Lollipops or lozenges.

This dosage form is very convenient for adults. However, children often simply chew and eat the tasty tablet. Therefore, it is sometimes difficult to achieve an optimal pharmacological effect in patients of a younger age category. Note that tablet preparations containing Miramistin have not yet been developed.

— Sprays for irrigating the throat.

A very convenient dosage form of Miramistin, which can also be used in children. Thanks to the long sprayer, you can treat even the most difficult to reach areas of the tonsils and pharynx. The experience of using sprays in pediatric practice is quite extensive. And he says that quite often there is a confrontation between a small patient and an adult clutching an aerosol can in his hand.

Sometimes the result of all the punctuation is a quick irrigation of the throat, until the child is somehow miraculously persuaded not to close his mouth. The effectiveness of the antiseptic with such treatment, of course, drops sharply.

— Rinse solutions.

Despite the fact that this form of release is clearly inferior to sprays in terms of convenience, many ENT doctors and pediatricians give it preference. And the effectiveness of rinsing is that if done diligently, you can treat the entire inflamed area with an antiseptic solution.

How to gargle with Miramistin?

Many parents remember this procedure from their childhood. Nevertheless, we think it would not be amiss to repeat how to properly gargle with Miramistin. So, the most important thing in the procedure:

1. firstly, the duration of rinses. An effective gargle should not take less than five minutes;

2. secondly, during the procedure you need to slightly tilt your head back so that the medicine irrigates the maximum area. It is important not to overdo it in this matter. Otherwise, the solution may enter the nasopharynx, and pathogenic microorganisms will penetrate there along with the medicine. The consequences are easily predictable - the spread of the inflammatory process to the nasal cavity and the development of rhinitis and sinusitis.

3. and finally, thirdly. Do not eat or drink for half an hour after using local antiseptics for the oral cavity. This rule applies not only to rinsing solution, but also to sprays and antiseptic lozenges. Otherwise, you will simply wash off the thin film of the drug from the mucous membrane and absorb it along with the food. Of course, if I may say so, this treatment will not have a toxic effect: the drug is absolutely safe. However, the therapeutic effect is reduced to zero.

Treatment of respiratory tract diseases with Miramistin

With the help of inhalations with Miramistin solution, inflammatory diseases of the upper and lower respiratory tract can be treated. However, conventional heat-moisture inhalers are not able to deliver the medicine to its destination. Nebulizers do an excellent job of this task, as they effectively convert the Miramistin solution into a gaseous state.

The drug, when it reaches the mucous membrane of the trachea and bronchi, has a pronounced antiseptic effect. Inhalations with Miramistin are indicated for bronchitis in adults and bronchitis in children (inflammation of the bronchi), tracheitis, laryngotracheitis, as well as pneumonia (pneumonia). The antiseptic is used regardless of whether the disease is accompanied by sputum production. Miramistin is used for coughs and runny nose with purulent discharge.

The effectiveness of treatment largely depends on the timely administration of inhalations. Therefore, when the first signs of a cold, acute respiratory viral infection or bronchitis appear, immediately take the inhaler from the shelf and feel free to begin the procedure.

Note that inhalations with Miramistin are part of the complex treatment of respiratory tract diseases. The treatment regimen primarily includes mucolytic agents that promote effective sputum discharge. It is worth remembering that if diseases are of bacterial origin, you cannot do without an antibiotic.

When is Miramistin an emergency medicine?

Miramistin is one of the external drugs that is trusted for emergency prevention of sexually transmitted diseases.

Of course, the first and main method of protection should be barrier agents. But unfortunately, sometimes an absurd accident can cost too much. In such cases, Miramistin comes to the rescue. Dermatovenerologists recommend using Miramistin as soon as possible after unprotected sexual intercourse. In this case, women are recommended to use the bottle with a vaginal nozzle, and men with a urethral nozzle.

The basis for successful prevention of sexually transmitted infections with Miramistin is:

- timely use of antiseptics. The drug should be used no later than two hours after sexual intercourse;

— high-quality treatment of mucous membranes. It is for this purpose that pharmaceutical companies produce bottles with special attachments.

I would like to add that as an additional emergency prevention of sexually transmitted diseases, some experts recommend using a short course of antibiotics. However, in such cases you should still consult a qualified dermatovenerologist.

Application of Miramistin in other areas of medicine

Miramistin is widely used for many other diseases. Let's try to list the areas of medicine in which the new antiseptic has found application:

– surgery and traumatology

Miramistin is used to treat wound surfaces, including purulent ones. A positive quality of the drug is considered to be a wide spectrum of action against the background of the absence of irritant or allergic effects.

- obstetrics and gynecology

Miramistin is indicated for the treatment of postpartum injuries, including those resulting from episiotomy (surgical incision of the perineum). The drug helps prevent postpartum infection.

In gynecological practice, Miramistin is used to treat inflammatory diseases. The activity of Miramistin against fungi of the genus Candida determines its use for vaginal candidiasis (thrush).

The drug is used to treat burns and prevent their infection. The particularly reverent attitude of combustiologists is caused by the reparative properties of the antiseptic, which promote rapid healing of the burn surface. Let us add that Miramistin is also used in the treatment of sunburn.

The solution and ointment with Miramistin are used as a local antiseptic for bacterial and fungal infections, including dermatomycosis of the feet. However, despite its effectiveness against most pathogenic and opportunistic fungi, Miramistin cannot be considered the drug of choice for these infections. The antiseptic is part of complex therapy as an additional agent.

Eye drops containing a sterile 0.01% solution of Miramistin are used for viral, fungal and bacterial conjunctivitis (inflammation of the connective membrane of the eye), blepharitis (inflammation of the edge of the eyelid - what is popularly called stye) and blepharoconjunctivitis.

A wide spectrum of action against a wide variety of pathogens is the reason for the prescription of Miramistin for the treatment of dental diseases. Note that inflammatory processes of the gums and oral mucosa can be associated with bacteria, fungi, and viruses, including HSV (herpes viruses).

Sometimes it is quite difficult to select a drug that has simultaneous activity against these pathogens. After all, it is usually impossible to accurately identify a microorganism. Miramistin in such cases is just a lifesaver, so this antiseptic is prescribed for:

  • stomatitis (inflammation of the oral mucosa);
  • gingivitis (inflammation of the gums);
  • periodontitis (inflammation of the periodontium - gums and surrounding soft tissues);
  • periodontitis (inflammation of the tissue between the tooth and the bone bed).

In addition, Miramistin is also used for effective cleaning of dentures.

Miramistin dosages for throat diseases according to instructions

The instructions for use of Miramistin describe the exact dosages of the drug depending on the purpose.

For inflammatory diseases of the throat and vocal cords - pharyngitis, tonsillitis and laryngitis - use a rinse solution and an irrigation aerosol Miramistin.

The dosage of the drug depends on its release form.

Miramistin in the form of a spray

  • for children from 3 to 6 years old, about 3-5 ml of spray per dose (usually this is one dose of the drug, which is released during a single spray);
  • children from 7 to 14 years old: 5–7 ml of the drug (2 doses);
  • children over 14 years of age and adults need 3-4 doses of the drug (that is, 3-4 times aerosol spraying).

The frequency of use of the aerosol is 3-4 times a day after meals.

Miramistin in the form of a rinse solution

The dosage of the rinse solution also depends on the patient’s age:

  • for children from 3 to 6 years old you will need 3–5 ml of Miramistin solution. For this age category, doctors recommend diluting the drug with warm boiled water in a 1:1 ratio. That is, for one procedure you will need about 10 ml of a 0.005% solution of Miramistin with water;
  • for children 7-14 years old, 7 ml of a standard 0.01% antiseptic solution is sufficient;
  • for children over 14 years of age and adults, the dosage of Miramistin rinsing solution is 10–15 ml per rinse.

The frequency of procedures is 4–5 times a day after meals.

The course of treatment for diseases of the throat and pharynx depends on the severity of the inflammatory process. The minimum duration of treatment is 4 days. The average course of therapy is 5–7 days.

Experts also fully accept prolonged regimens, when antiseptics are used for 10 days or even longer. The lack of persistence (that is, addiction) of microorganisms to Miramistin is the reason that experts do not object to long-term treatment with this antiseptic.

Otorhinolaryngology and ophthalmology: average doses of Miramistin

Ear drops containing miramistin are used for external and otitis media. In case of inflammation of the outer ear, a turunda made from a sterile bandage is moistened in the solution of the drug. The resulting structure is inserted into the ear for 10–15 minutes. This intricate procedure is repeated 3-4 times a day.

For otitis media, drops with Miramistin are instilled 3-5 drops into each ear. For children, 2-3 drops are enough. The frequency of the procedure is 3-4 times a day, and the duration of treatment is from 5 days to two weeks.

Sinusitis, rhinitis, sinusitis

Miramistin nasal drops are instilled in an amount of 2-3 drops into each nasal passage. For children, the dosage of Miramistin is slightly lower - 1-2 drops. The frequency of use is up to 7–8 times a day, and the course of treatment is 7–10 days.

For sinusitis, Miramistin is administered through a puncture. The dosage of the drug in this case is quantum satis, which translated from Latin means “as much as necessary.”

Conjunctivitis, blepharitis, eye injuries

In ophthalmology, 2-3 drops of Miramistin are used in each eye, the frequency of procedures is 4-6 times a day. For children under 12 years of age, 1–2 drops of the drug are enough.

Inhalations with Miramistin: recommended doses

For inhalations with Miramistin, you will need 4 ml of a 0.01% antiseptic solution, the frequency of procedures is 3-4 times a day.

For children under 12 years of age, the drug is recommended to be diluted in an isotonic sodium chloride solution. To obtain a working solution you will need 1 ml of Miramistin and 2 ml of solvent. Frequency of application: 3–4 times a day.

Dosages of Miramistin when used in other areas of medicine

For wounds and burns

In surgery and comustiology, a 0.01% solution of Miramistin is used. The antiseptic is used externally to wash the wound surface, as well as to pack wounds. Frequency of use: 2–3 times a day. In surgery, the method of draining wounds with a large volume of medicine (up to 1 liter per day) has become especially popular.

To prevent sexually transmitted infections it is recommended:

  • For women, inject 1–2 ml of the drug into the urethra. For vaginal douching, 5–10 ml of Miramistin is enough. Exposure duration: 2–3 minutes;
  • for men, inject 2–3 ml of Miramistin into the urethra.

In addition, the external genitalia, pubic area and inner thighs must be treated with an antiseptic.

In obstetrics and gynecology

Miramistin 0.01% is used as:

  • irrigation solution;
  • solution for wetting tampons.

For diseases of the gums and oral mucosa, use a 0.01% Miramistin solution for rinsing. One procedure will require 10–15 ml of antiseptic, the frequency of rinsing is 3–4 times a day.

Miramistin for children: at what age can the drug be used?

Miramistin is a very safe antiseptic that is not absorbed into the blood and does not have a systemic effect. According to the instructions for use, Miramistin is officially approved for use in children over three years of age. For patients under 12 years of age, it is often recommended to dilute the solution with water or sodium chloride.

The age restriction on the use of Miramistin is due to the lack of clinical studies of the drug in young children. Nevertheless, many pediatricians prescribe Miramistin to children over the age of one year and even to infants. As a rule, in such cases, the antiseptic is diluted with water in a ratio of 1:1 or 1:2.

Miramistin: a safe antiseptic during pregnancy

The drug is approved for use during pregnancy, including the first trimester. Researchers have proven that Miramistin does not affect the course of pregnancy when applied locally or externally. Therefore, expectant mothers can safely use the antiseptic for any of its purposes and not worry about adverse effects.

We would like to add that the use of Miramistin during lactation has not been studied, and manufacturers honestly warn patients about this in the instructions for use. Nevertheless, the drug is also used during breastfeeding - after all, the antiseptic is not absorbed into the blood, and, therefore, does not penetrate into breast milk.

Contraindications and side effects

Miramistin is contraindicated only in case of individual sensitivity to the antiseptic. The probability of such a reaction is, as a rule, no higher than 0.01%.

Side effects with external and local use of Miramistin are recorded extremely rarely, and this is confirmed in the reviews of doctors and patients. Adverse events include:

- a short-term local reaction in the form of a slight burning sensation, which disappears literally in 15–20 seconds;

- an allergic reaction that manifests itself as dermatosis. Individual sensitivity to Miramistin manifests itself in sensitized patients prone to allergies.

Miramistin behind the curtain. Why?

We have considered almost all the properties of Miramistin. But the question of why such an effective and safe antiseptic remained an exclusively Russian drug was not answered.

Indeed, studies of Miramistin were carried out only at clinics in Russia and Ukraine. There is data on tests of the drug by Swedish scientists, but information on the results of the experiments is not possible to find. And most importantly, for more than 20 years of use in the CIS countries, Miramistin has no longer been registered in any country in the world.

What causes such distrust of foreign doctors in Russian know-how is unclear. Nevertheless, this fact makes many domestic specialists wary and take a critical look at Miramistin.

Analogues of Miramistin

Analogs of Miramistin include only a few drugs, namely:

Okomistin - eye, ear and nasal drops at the same time, produced by Infamed.

Miramidez, which is produced by a Ukrainian company, is ear drops based on ethyl alcohol.

Storage and release

Let us recall the rules for storing Miramistin: the drug does not lose its quality at room temperature. Place the bottle in a closet out of the reach of children.

And finally. In order to buy Miramistin in a pharmacy, you do not need a doctor’s prescription - the drug belongs to the OTC group (over the counter). Which once again proves its safety.

It is also worth paying attention to other medications:

One day we were prescribed Miramistin in a solution that we needed to gargle with. When we started treatment, my son only had a red throat and a temperature of 37–37.5. We gargled as many as five times a day. My child is accustomed to all these procedures, so they rinse thoroughly and for a long time so that not a single pest survives. But after a couple of days, the temperature jumped to 39, and the sore throat became even worse. The doctor was forced to prescribe antibiotics and prescribed Givalex instead of the first one. I got the impression that Miramistin is water in a beautiful bottle.

So don't write nonsense! People suffering from sore throat are saved only by it!
