Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics.
Benzydamine is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with analgesic and antiexudative properties.
In clinical studies, benzydamine has been shown to be effective in relieving symptoms associated with localized irritant pathologies in the oral cavity and pharynx. In addition, benzydamine has an anti-inflammatory and local analgesic effect on the oral mucosa.
Pharmacokinetics.
The fact of absorption through the mucous membrane of the oral cavity and pharynx has been proven by the presence of measurable amounts of benzydamine in human blood plasma. However, this is not sufficient to exert any systemic pharmacological effect. Excretion occurs mainly in the urine, mainly in the form of inactive metabolites or conjugated compounds.
It has been shown that topical application achieves the accumulation of effective concentrations of benzydamine in inflamed tissues due to its ability to penetrate the mucous membrane.
Indication
Symptomatic treatment of irritations and inflammations of the oropharynx; pain caused by gingivitis, stomatitis, pharyngitis; in dentistry, used after tooth extraction or for preventive purposes.
Contraindication
Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to other components of the drug.
Interaction with other medicinal products and other types of interactions
No interaction studies have been conducted.
Application features
If sensitivity occurs with prolonged use, treatment should be discontinued and a doctor should be consulted for appropriate treatment.
In some patients, buccal/pharyngeal ulcers may be due to serious pathological processes. Therefore, patients whose symptoms worsen or do not improve within 3 days, or who develop a fever or other symptoms, should seek advice from a general practitioner or dentist.
Benzydamine is not recommended for use in patients with hypersensitivity to acetylsalicylic acid or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
The use of the drug may cause bronchospasm in patients with bronchial asthma, including those with a history of it. Such patients should be warned about this.
For athletes: the use of medicines containing ethyl alcohol may give a positive result in an anti-doping test.
