What is Sialor from?

Sialor drops for children - a convenient analogue of Protargol

Sometimes it seems that a child’s runny nose is an endless process. They just cured their son or daughter, and they sniffle again. Mothers are especially worried about their babies, because they do not yet know how to blow their nose, and snot can become a serious problem.

Table of contents:

The new drug Sialor is a real salvation for babies under one year old and often sick children. It combines safety, ease of use and effectiveness, according to reviews, not inferior to the famous Protargol.

Sialor has a direct antibacterial effect.

Description of the drug

SIALOR - antiseptic nasal drops. The product is produced by the Russian pharmaceutical company RENEWAL. The active ingredient of the drug is silver proteinate, which is a powerful antiseptic.

Indications for use

A runny nose is an extremely unpleasant symptom: difficulty breathing, mucus production, complete loss of smell. To quickly relieve a child of nasal congestion, doctors usually prescribe one of the vasoconstrictor drugs (Naphthyzin, Xylometazoline). In this case, inflammation is relieved not by eliminating the pathogen, but by forcibly disrupting the blood circulation of the nasal mucosa. Therefore, frequent use of such products in childhood is not recommended: they cause addiction and atrophy of the mucous membrane.

Sialor for children is a drug with a local disinfecting effect. It is shown:

  • for acute rhinitis (runny nose): infectious, vasomotor, allergic;
  • with adenoids;
  • for the prevention of nasal infections in the autumn-winter period, cold season;
  • for hygienic care of the nasal cavity in infants.

The drug is suitable for children from the first days of life.

“I had to deal with this medicine when my baby was not even two months old. First I got sick, and then she started snorting. It was scary: the baby could not suckle normally and was breathing very hard.

The doctor recommended the medicine Protargol. Since it is prepared only in specialized pharmacies, there were difficulties in finding it. The pharmacist advised me to buy Sialor, saying that it was the same Protargol, only in a more convenient form.

Having prepared the solution as indicated in the instructions, I dropped Sialor into the child’s nose, one drop at a time. Apparently, silver dries out the mucous membrane well, because there is less discharge, and already on the first night after using the medicine, my daughter slept better.”

Mechanism of action

The disinfecting properties of silver have been known to mankind since ancient times. To keep water fresh and tasty for a long time, the ancient Egyptians kept it in silver vessels, and such great medieval scientists as Paracelsus and Avicenna used the precious metal to treat the sick.

According to the instructions for use (download in pdf format), silver proteinate included in the drug:

  • has a disinfecting effect: “cleanses” the child’s nasal cavity from microbes (Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Streptococcus aureus, etc.);
  • protects microflora: unlike antibiotics, silver proteinate does not destroy the body’s own non-pathogenic flora and does not disrupt metabolic processes;
  • relieves inflammation: due to the protein complex, the drug creates a thin protective film on the surface of the nasal mucosa, which reduces swelling and irritation.

Sialor is an assistant for bacterial rhinitis.

Sialor or Protargol?

For a long time, the only silver-based antiseptic for children was Protargol. The medicine is prepared only in special prescription departments of pharmacies and has a short shelf life of only 1 month.

In 2013, Russian scientists created and patented a new form of silver proteinate - in the form of tablets for preparing a 2% solution of Sialor. Advantages of the drug:

  • possibility of industrial production;
  • long shelf life - as long as the product is not diluted and is in sealed packaging, it can be stored for 2 years;
  • ease of preparing the solution: following the instructions, mom can easily prepare the medicine herself.

Thus, Sialor is the same Protargol. But at the same time, you can buy it at any pharmacy and dilute it yourself.

Protargol - available Sialor.

Victoria, 32 years old:

“I have known Protargol for a long time, and I really like this medicine. True, it is produced in only one pharmacy, which is inconvenient to get to. Therefore, when I heard from a friend that a similar product had appeared that you could buy almost everywhere and prepare at home yourself, I was very happy. Now the whole family is being treated with Sialor: it’s better than constantly instilling Naphthyzin or giving antibiotics.”

How to dilute and use Sialor

Sialor's small bright cardboard box for children includes:

  • 200 mg (1 tablet) of silver proteinate, placed in a blister;
  • solvent - 10 ml of purified water;
  • dark glass bottle with a convenient child-sized pipette cap;
  • instructions for use.

Attention! There is also an option with a spray nozzle on sale. This bottle shape is not suitable for children under 16 years of age and is used only for adults.

Before using for its intended purpose, the product must be prepared. It's easy and takes a few minutes. Follow the step-by-step guide in our review.

  1. Make sure the product has not expired.
  2. Open the cardboard packaging and prepare all the components of the future solution.
  3. Open the container with the solvent and pour its contents into the bottle.
  4. Take out the Sialor tablet and add it to the solvent. Open the blister immediately before preparing the solution, since in fresh air silver proteinate quickly oxidizes and loses its beneficial properties.
  5. Close the bottle tightly and shake until the tablet is completely dissolved. This may take 8-10 minutes.

The finished solution acquires a rich dark brown color and a specific chemical smell. The bottle should be tightly closed after each use and stored in the refrigerator for no more than 30 days. This is due to the relative instability of the drug: when exposed to air, high temperatures and bright sunlight, the chemical bonds in the silver proteinate molecule are destroyed, and the medicine becomes useless.

Sialor can be instilled into the nose of children from birth. Before using the product for the first time, you need to conduct a sensitivity test: apply a drop of the solution to the bend of your elbow. If the skin in this area turns red and becomes covered with a rash, it means that the baby has an individual intolerance to silver-based drugs. In this case, you need to rinse your hand under running water and, if necessary, see a doctor.

But usually there is no skin reaction to Sialor, and treatment can begin. Before instilling silver proteinate solution, it is recommended to clean the nasal passages. Experienced mothers advise doing this using a regular saline solution, which can be bought at a pharmacy: using a pipette, drop 3-4 drops of liquid into the nose and ask the child to blow his nose. If the baby does not yet know how to blow his nose, a rubber bulb or any other aspirator that can be used to suck out the mucus will help.

Before using the drug, clean your baby's nose.

Read a review of children's nasal aspirators - which device should you choose for your child and how to use it safely?

Sialor is applied to the nasal mucosa 1-4 drops 3 times a day. Pediatricians select the dosage individually, but are usually guided by the following rule: the older the child, the more drops. For children under one year old, one drop of silver proteinate three times a day is enough. The course of treatment is 5-7 days. Usually this time is enough for the runny nose to go away completely.

The product causes virtually no side effects. Some mothers note that while instilling Sialor, their children complained of a slight burning sensation in the nose.

Analogues of Sialor

Sialor and Protargol are the only antiseptic drops based on silver proteinate that exist on the pharmaceutical market. Several other drugs have a similar mechanism of action (disinfection and cleansing of the nasal cavity from the pathogen).

The main analogues of Sialor are presented in the table below. They can only be taken as prescribed by a doctor.

Pros and cons of Sialor

In the reviews, among the disadvantages of the medicine, mothers note the high price and short shelf life of the finished solution: most often they manage to use a quarter or less of the product.

The medicine helps children quickly cope with a severe runny nose.

“It’s inconvenient that the finished bottle of Sialor is stored for only a month. You need very little money for a course of treatment, and it’s a shame to throw away the rest. We agreed with other mothers in the kindergarten: now we share the medicine with each other, especially since the children take turns getting sick.”

Sialor quickly helps to cope with even a severe runny nose. The advantages of the product include:

  • high efficiency: a child’s snot usually goes away in 2-3 days;
  • minimum side effects;
  • Possibility of use in newborns and infants.

Sialor is a reliable and safe “silver” medicinal formula that you can now prepare yourself.

Spray and drops Sialor for children - instructions for use, reviews

Instructions for the use of Sialor drops for children indicate how to correctly use this remedy for the treatment of rhinitis of a cold or infectious nature. Young children often catch colds because their immune system is not yet fully functioning. In addition to the main symptoms of the disease (fever, headache), the child’s condition is complicated by nasal congestion and difficulty in nasal breathing, which results in moodiness and sleep disturbances. You can quickly improve your condition with the help of the cold medicine Sialor.

Sialor for children - description of the drug

The drug Sialor belongs to the group of local antiseptics and exhibits disinfecting, astringent and anti-inflammatory properties. The active substance of the drug is silver proteinate, which has powerful antiseptic properties. Just a few years ago, pediatricians prescribed to young patients an analogue of Sialog - the drug Protargol, which had to be ordered in the prescription department of the pharmacy.

This medicine was not sold in finished form, since the silver solution cannot be stored for a long time and quickly loses its effectiveness. Otherwise, this drug and modern Sialor are completely identical, since they contain the same active substance.

The Russian pharmaceutical company Renewal managed to solve the problem. Pharmacists extended the shelf life by separating the components of the drug. Thus, a new drug for the common cold was created - Sialor protargol. Its peculiarity is that silver ions are enclosed in a tablet, which must be diluted with a special solvent immediately before using the drug. This approach provides the necessary therapeutic effect, since the active substance does not lose its properties as a result of long-term storage.

The medicine promotes vasoconstriction, eliminates swelling and nasal congestion, and relieves inflammatory processes. A silver-based solution perfectly disinfects mucous membranes, but does not have a negative effect on metabolic processes and, unlike antibiotics, does not destroy beneficial microflora, which prevents the penetration of bacteria and viruses into the nasopharyngeal mucosa.

Release forms

For adults and children over 12 years of age, the drug for runny nose Sialor is available in a concentration of (2%). For children, a silver solution of lower concentration (1%) is used. Drops are considered the most convenient form for young patients, since at this age it is difficult to explain that you should hold your breath when using the drug. When sprayed, the spray can enter the child's windpipe and cause bronchospasm and suffocation. There is no such danger when using drops; they act quickly and gently, reliably relieving the condition, eliminating nasal congestion.

Sialor drops for children are produced in the form of a special set, which includes 1 tablet intended for preparing a solution. It contains 200 mg of silver proteinate. As a solvent, an ampoule containing 10 ml of distilled water and an empty dark bottle with a pipette (for drops) or a spray (for spray) is placed in the package with the drug.

There are also ready-made analogues of Sialor that do not require prior dilution. But they do not contain silver nitrate and the necessary therapeutic effect is achieved through other active components. To treat a runny nose in a baby, the doctor may prescribe Sialor Rhino or Sialor Aqua drops.

Sialor Rhino nasal drops for children are available in special dropper tubes with a volume of 2, 10, 15 or 20 ml. They contain a ready-made solution intended for instillation into the nose. 1 ml of colorless nasal drops contains 0.1 mg of the active substance oxymetazoline + auxiliary components. This form of the drug is used to treat allergic rhinitis, nasal congestion during colds, as part of a complex treatment of eustachitis and hay fever (hay fever).

Sialor Aqua for children - safe drops based on sea water. Used to cleanse, moisturize and soften the nasal mucosa. Available in polyethylene dropper tubes with a valve, volume 10 ml. 100 ml of a clear, slightly opalescent solution contains 10 ml of sea water. The therapeutic effect is achieved through beneficial microelements dissolved in water (chlorides, sulfates, sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium).

Compared to analogues, silver-based Sialor drops provide a powerful disinfecting effect, actively destroy pathogenic microflora and neutralize various strains of pathogens (streptococci, Staphylococcus aureus, Haemophilus influenzae). Other forms of Sialor (based on other active substances) do not have such disinfecting properties.

Indications

Silver-based Sialor Protargol drops not only relieve the unpleasant symptoms of rhinitis, but also remove the very cause of the disease, destroying pathogenic microflora. Therefore, the drug is recommended for the prevention and treatment of bacterial ENT infections.

Sialor drops are prescribed to children when a nasal swab confirms the presence of pathogenic strains (streptococci, staphylococci). Silver solution is used for the following conditions:

  • persistent rhinorrhea;
  • manifestations of allergic or vasomotor rhinitis;
  • as part of complex treatment of adenoids, sinusitis, sinusitis;
  • for treating the sinuses after surgery.

As a prophylactic agent, the drug is prescribed to prevent infectious and inflammatory diseases of the paranasal sinuses. Sialor in children under one year of age is used for hygienic rinsing of the nasal passages, as well as for the prevention of blepharitis and conjunctivitis. The medicine can be used to treat complex cases accompanied by chronic, prolonged runny nose with copious mucus secretion.

Instructions for use

The packaging with the drug includes instructions that explain in detail the steps for preparing the silver solution:

  1. first open the package with the drug and take out all the components necessary to prepare the solution;
  2. open the ampoule with distilled water and pour its contents into the empty bottle included in the kit;
  3. remove the tablet from the blister and quickly place it in a bottle of solvent (purified water);
  4. do not keep the tablet with silver ions in the open air, otherwise the active substance will quickly lose its beneficial properties;
  5. Close the bottle with the tablet tightly and shake until the drug is completely dissolved and a clear solution is obtained.

Use the prepared solution for its intended purpose. It is convenient to measure the required dose with the pipette included in the bottle with the drug. After each use, the bottle with drops should be tightly closed with a lid, preventing air from entering, and stored in the refrigerator for no more than 30 days.

Before using Sialor for the first time, it is recommended to do a skin test to exclude allergic reactions. To do this, apply a drop of solution to the child’s arm in the elbow area and observe the reaction. If no changes occur on the skin (rash, redness), you can safely use a silver-based drug for its intended purpose.

Dosage

The doctor selects the dosage of the antiseptic individually. Children from birth to one year are usually prescribed 1 drop of solution 2 times a day. For children from 12 months to 4 years, the single dose of the drug can be doubled, that is, instill 2 drops into each nostril at a time. For older patients, a single dose of the solution is 3 drops in each nasal passage. The brevity of using the medicine is the same.

In ophthalmology, the drug is used up to 4 times a day. During one procedure, 2-4 drops of solution are instilled into each eye of the child. On average, the duration of treatment is 5-7 days, but this period can be extended by the attending physician taking into account the patient’s condition.

So that parents do not miss the moment after which the drug can no longer be used, the date of dilution of the solution should be entered in a specially designated column on the bottle label. If a child accidentally drinks the prepared medicine, Dr. Komarovsky advises immediately doing a gastric lavage on his own or seeking medical help. This situation cannot be left to chance, as excess silver is easily deposited in the tissues and further provokes the development of argyrosis. If parents are afraid that the medicine may get into the baby’s stomach, you can not instill the drug, but simply moisten a cotton swab with it and carefully treat the nasal mucosa.

Contraindications

In general, Sialor protargol is considered one of the safest medications. The antiseptic has a minimum of contraindications. The main one is increased sensitivity to silver proteinate. In addition to individual intolerance to the components, the medication should not be prescribed during pregnancy and lactation.

Adverse reactions

Sialor is usually well tolerated by young patients, but in some cases its use causes adverse reactions - a burning sensation and dryness in the nose, irritation of the mucous membrane. Therefore, you should not exceed the dosage and duration of treatment indicated by your doctor. With increased sensitivity to the active substance, a rash appears on the skin and symptoms of atopic dermatitis are noted.

In case of an overdose of the drug, systemic reactions may develop, which are manifested by dizziness, headache, numbness, and excessive drowsiness. If you are prone to allergic reactions, dangerous complications may develop - anaphylactic shock and Quincke's edema.

Additional recommendations

After preparation, the solution can be stored for no more than a month; after this period, it cannot be used. Sialor should be stored away from sunlight, in a dark glass bottle (preferably on a shelf in the refrigerator).

Before using the drug as part of complex therapy, you should consult with your doctor and the possibility of simultaneous use of Sialor with other medications.

Analogs

The only structural analogue of Sialor, which contains silver, is the drug Collargol. Other agents that exhibit an identical disinfectant effect include an extensive list of drugs from which the doctor, if necessary, can select an adequate replacement. Analogues of Sialor:

Price

The price of Sialor depends on the form of release and the manufacturer. Thus, the drug Sialor protargol (tablet + solvent) costs from 220 rubles, a solution of protargol, which is prepared to order in pharmacies, will cost an order of magnitude cheaper - from 60 rubles per bottle.

Sialor Rhino costs from 100 rubles per package containing 5 droppers. Sialor Aqua drops (10ml) will cost from 130 rubles.

Reviews about the application

Reviews from parents about the use of the drug Sialor for children are mostly positive. There is good effectiveness and a mild effect of the drug, with a minimum number of contraindications.

But in some cases, the use of silver solution causes undesirable reactions, which parents also report in their reviews.

Sialor Protargol: instructions for use of drops. Reviews

Effective nasal drops Sialor Protargol will help cure a runny nose due to a cold or infection.

They are prescribed for acute or chronic rhinitis. Most often, the solution is recommended for children. But to obtain a positive result of therapeutic manipulations, it must be administered according to the instructions, following the doctor’s prescription sheet.

The annotation for the medicine indicates that it is available in tablet form. The package contains a bottle with a dropper or spray and an ampoule of purified water. It is prohibited to use any other solvent.

What is Protargol Sialor: description of the drug

The medication contains Protargol and polyvinyl-N-pyrrolidone. The active ingredient, silver proteinate, dries, disinfects the mucous membrane and covers it with a protective film.

After its distribution throughout the ciliated epithelium, pathogenic microorganisms, even penetrating inside the nasal cavity, cannot damage the cells of the secretory layer for a long time.

The release form of the drug is convenient in that each patient can dilute the tablet independently and immediately use the prepared medication.

The antibacterial properties of the unused diluted product last for about an hour. Then it no longer acts as an antimicrobial component.

Sialor nasal drops: indications for use

Prescribing nasal drops is advisable for diseases of the nasopharynx caused by pathogenic microbes. They destroy the infection that has already settled on the mucous membrane, and also prevent their reproduction for a long time after insertion into the nose. That is why the medication is recommended for use in the treatment of prolonged rhinorrhea.

What does an antiseptic treat:

  • Adenoids;
  • Vasomotor rhinitis;
  • Sinusitis;
  • Allergic rhinitis;
  • Preoperative preparation and postoperative rehabilitation of the nasal cavity;
  • For the prevention of colds.

When a solution with chemical element ions is prescribed, patients must strictly adhere to the instructions, since it can cause side effects.

The viral infection is resistant to the action of the active substance, so there is no point in prescribing it for ARVI with non-bacterial rhinitis.

In addition to the bottle with a dropper, the manufacturer provides Sialor spray; from what age and whether children can inject it into the nose, you should ask your treating pediatrician.

But spraying any medicinal liquid with a spray nozzle is recommended for children aged 5-6 years. At this age, the nasal passages are formed, and the pressure from the procedure will not cause discomfort or complications in the child.

Sialor for children instructions for use: how to dilute?

If your doctor has prescribed Sialor Protargol, the instructions for use tell you how to prepare it at home. But before diluting the tablet, you will need to clear the nasopharynx of mucus, exudate and dry crusts.

Modern Protargol Sialor is prepared as follows:

  1. Open the blister containing the tablet.
  2. Take out an ampoule with purified water and dip the compressed powder into it.
  3. Close the container and shake well until the powder is completely dissolved.
  4. Pour concentrated 2% water into a bottle with a dropper or spray and begin treatment.

The method of application depends on the age of the patient and the complexity of the disease. It is not recommended to prescribe it for a child two years old or younger.

However, if the drug has already been purchased, then before use it should be checked for possible allergies. How to do this is described below.

Therapy should begin at 4 years of age. Despite the fact that parents often buy it for babies, it is better to trust a qualified specialist and not self-medicate.

The ENT specialist will tell you how many days you can take the medicine. But usually the treatment course lasts 5 days. The procedures are repeated again every other day, not earlier.

Remember, in cases where the medication does not help in a short time of physiatry and the development of adenoids threatens, the course of therapy is extended to two weeks. But the patient must be under the supervision of an otolaryngologist.

How to store the prepared solution after dilution?

Silver ions are very sensitive to direct sunlight and air, so their properties are quickly lost if the medication is not stored correctly. The shelf life after opening and diluting the tablet is one month, but only if placed in the refrigerator.

There is no point in using it after 30 days of storage, since the medication will become a useless liquid. It needs to be prepared right before instillation. An expired composition will not harm a person or cause intoxication, but becomes powerless to help in the treatment of ENT diseases.

The medication should be stored in the dark bottle that comes with the kit. Transparent bottles are not suitable for this purpose.

For children under one year old: from how many months can you start dripping?

Some doctors claim that the antiseptic is allowed in the treatment of infants and even newborns. All this is true, but first nasal drops for children need to be tested for sensitivity.

To do this, carry out a simple test. A drop of the dissolved mixture is applied to the elbow joint and checked for skin irritation. If redness occurs or a rash appears, then Sialor cannot be instilled into the nose.

But usually children do not experience hypersensitivity or intolerance reactions. Whether the medication can be instilled in each specific case should, if possible, be determined by an ENT specialist.

Therefore, when the child is 1 year or younger, the tampon is inserted slowly, not deeply, and the spout is carefully lubricated. Before manipulation, clean with saline solution.

Sometimes after the administration of the active substance, children have a stinging sensation in the nose. This is one of the minor adverse reactions.

For babies and newborns

You can buy a nasal antiseptic without a prescription, but this does not mean that it is approved for self-medication. Especially if they want to buy it for runny noses in babies.

There is a practice when antiseptic is administered to newborns in the maternity hospital. To do this, take a one percent concentration and drop it into the eyes. But the procedure is carried out under the supervision of a doctor.

An ordinary solution of Protargol from a pharmacy should be prescribed by an ENT specialist. If it is prescribed to a child with a beginning runny nose or prolonged infectious rhinitis, then instill 1 drop once or twice a day. The physiatry course lasts about 5 days.

The exact dosage is selected by the pediatrician. The liquid is instilled into children in a supine position. You need to lay him on his back and gently drip the drops into both nostrils. After manipulation, the residues are removed with an aspirator.

A medicine with bactericidal properties is very effective against green snot caused by staphylococci and streptococci. It is also prescribed for otitis media and eustacheitis.

For older children, an antibacterial component is recommended for the development of adenoids. In many cases, it helps to get rid of inflammation and enlargement of the tonsils without surgery.

Sialor for adenoids in children relieves inflammation, destroys infection, and prevents the development of complications.

Sialor for adults

The drug is produced in the form of a spray for injecting the active component into the nasal cavity. The composition is the same as in the children's 2% version.

Sialor spray is prescribed for diseases of the nasopharynx of infectious origin. It helps to cope with nasal congestion, persistent runny nose, and is recommended even for sinusitis and other types of sinusitis.

Adults are often advised to inject this antiseptic drug if they work in enterprises where, due to the nature of their work, they have to inhale harmful particles that irritate the mucous membranes of the nasopharynx.

It is also recommended for nasal congestion without snot, tissue swelling caused by the development of adenoids (this happens rarely, but adenoiditis should not be considered exclusively a childhood disease).

  1. First, preparations are made from the tablet and purified water, shaking the liquid in a spray bottle.
  2. Then spray one dose into each nostril.
  3. Repeat the procedure three times a day.
  4. The therapeutic course is continued from five to seven days.

Many people ask what is the difference between children's Sialor and adults? There aren't that many differences. Both options are prescribed for thick snot, provoked by an inflammatory process and the penetration of a bacterial infection. But a spray for adults is a 2% concentration of the active element, children's drops are 1%.

Contraindications and side effects

In rare cases, during therapy, patients develop allergies as a side effect of the active component. It manifests itself in the form of a rash, redness of the skin, and itching.

An exception to the rule may be a high temperature, without any other symptoms. Signs of side effects disappear after discontinuation of the medication, and they are not dangerous.

Remember that overdose is also possible with long-term uncontrolled treatment. Then people experience congestion and swelling of the nasal mucosa. That is why it is important to comply with the physiatry deadlines indicated in the annotation.

In order to avoid allergic reactions, you first need to do preliminary tests on the skin in the area of ​​the elbow.

What is the difference between Protargol and Sialor?

Practically, this is the same active substance, which has an antibacterial effect, relieves swelling and reduces the inflammatory process.

The main difference between them is that Protargol is prepared in the prescription departments of pharmacies, and it is impossible to buy it without a prescription. And Sialor is sold complete with all the components necessary for independent breeding at home.

We have already looked at where and how to drip Sialor to a child. The same instructions for use apply to the prescription composition. As for the shelf life of dilutions, it is also the same - 30 days.

What does the first and second drug help with? They are prescribed for pathologies of the nasopharynx with infectious etiology. Also prescribed for allergic reactions manifested as rhinitis and conjunctivitis.

Another difference is that the analogue is given in a regular bottle without a dropper, so the patient will have to buy an additional pipette. But it will be more difficult to get a bottle with a spray.

Sialor: cheap analogue substitutes

How to replace expensive medicine? The main analogues are cheaper products available in prescription pharmacies - these are Collargol and Protargol. Another available drug is Silver Proteinate.

The manufacturer also offers options containing additional active ingredients. For example, with a vasoconstrictor component to quickly relieve swelling.

Price: cost at the pharmacy

Questions for the doctor

Many people want to know how to combine medicine with other nasal agents with antibacterial or vasoconstrictor effects. What to do if unexpected situations arise with children? Let's try to answer frequently asked questions.

Isofra or Sialor, which is better? Both formulations have antimicrobial properties. They are prescribed for yellow snot, green discharge, mucopurulent exudate. Is it possible to administer Isofra to children without consulting a doctor? Of course not, because it causes serious side effects.

In addition, this antiseptic is difficult for small children to tolerate, since after instilling it in the nose there is a burning sensation and a strong sting. Not everyone will agree to such treatment. If you are looking for an alternative, then Polydex is preferable to Isofra. Derinat or Sialor, which is more effective? Derinat does not belong to antimicrobial drug mixtures. It is used to enhance local immunity and has a greater antiviral effect. What kind of snot is Derinat prescribed for? From liquid, transparent, non-bacterial origin. It is completely useless for thick green or yellow discharge. Is it a vasoconstrictor or not? In its pure form, colloidal silver does not constrict blood vessels, as decongestants based on xylomethozoline, oxymetazoline, etc. do. It slightly relieves swelling, but does not help with severe congestion. It is necessary to instill other vasoconstrictors first. Can Sialor and Vibrocil be used together? Yes, but not at the same time. How often? It is advisable to drip Vibrocil in combination with a time difference of one and a half hours. It is also recommended to administer the decongestant at night so that the child sleeps well and breathes through his nose and not his mouth. But it does not get rid of the root of the disease, but only temporarily eliminates the symptoms.

If suddenly the baby drinks a silver composition, then the famous children's doctor Evgeniy Komarovsky in this case recommends washing the stomach so as not to cause serious poisoning. Heavy metal is dangerous in high concentrations; it is deposited in all cells and tissues of the body and provokes argyrosis. What if it gets in your eye? The bactericide is intended for the treatment of conjunctivitis, so accidental contact with the eyes will not be dangerous for the patient. It can cause a burning sensation, and the brown tint is frightening with its color; many people think that their eyes quickly become inflamed. But that's not true. If a large amount of antiseptic gets into the organ of vision, then rinse with boiled cold water.

Reviews

The only difference is the cost and the fact that you have to run around to look for the first one, while the second one is sold in almost every pharmacy. Both are antibacterial drugs; when instilled, a slight burning and tingling sensation is observed in the nasopharynx. Ekaterina, 32 years old

There was practically no therapeutic effect observed. I was even afraid that my runny nose might turn into sinusitis. He recovered only after a prescribed course of antibiotics. It is possible that this remedy will come in handy as a preventative or as an auxiliary, in combination with antibiotics or vasoconstrictors. Yulia, 40 years old

"Sialor": reviews from doctors

During the off-season, the human respiratory tract is more susceptible to inflammatory diseases. This is due to temperature changes. And a runny nose, inflammation of the sinuses, can become quite a big problem. Various medications come to the rescue in the treatment of inflammatory processes. One of them is “Sialor”. Reviews about it are very good.

What kind of drug is this?

"Sialor" is an anti-inflammatory drug with a disinfecting, antimicrobial effect, containing silver ions. By acting on the nasal mucosa, it constricts blood vessels, fights viruses and fungal diseases, and prevents the infection of acute respiratory infections and acute respiratory viral infections.

Composition and form of manufacture

There are two forms of release of the drug "Sialor". The first is in the form of a kit for mixing and obtaining a medicinal solution (tablet and sterilized water for dilution, a container with a pipette). The second is a ready-to-use nasal spray with a special pipette. Both products are intended for instillation into the nasal cavity.

The drug is based on silver proteinate (protargol) in a volume of 200 mg and polyvinyl-N-pyrrolidone. The liquid substance for dissolution is water, purified in a special way.

Reviews

My children often had profuse nasal discharge. I tried many sprays and drops, but they did not always give the desired result. They took a nasal swab, which revealed streptococci. The pediatric ENT doctor prescribed Sialor for us. I was satisfied with the product, relief came already on the second day after use.

Everyone in my family suffers from allergic rhinitis. We tried many remedies (pharmacy and folk), but we chose the Sialor solution, it suits us all. When used, the medicine does not cause drying of the nasal mucosa. It’s not difficult to prepare these drops, everything is already in the kit and you just need to mix the ingredients.

Valentina, 38 years old

Since birth, I have been washing my daughter’s nose (for preventive and hygienic purposes) with Sialor Aqua drops. They cleanse the mucous membrane well, and I sometimes use them myself. The droplets quickly make breathing easier, destroy bacteria, and they are not addictive or have side effects. Sialor is a safe and useful product, I recommend it to everyone.
