Pharmacodynamics
Benzydamine is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent that has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and local anesthetic effects. Cetylpyridinium chloride - an antiseptic from the group of quaternary ammonium compounds, has antimicrobial, antifungal, virucidal effect.
Pharmokinetics
Suction
Of the two active ingredients, cetylpyridinium chloride and benzydamine, only benzydamine is absorbed through the mucous membranes. Therefore, cetylpyridinium chloride does not enter into pharmacokinetic interaction with benzydamine at the systemic level.
The absorption of benzydamine through the mucous membranes of the oral cavity and pharynx was shown by identifying the active substance in the blood serum, the amount of which, however, was insufficient to provide a systemic effect. The absorption of benzydamine is higher when using dosage forms that dissolve in the oral cavity compared to dosage forms for topical application (for example, oral spray).
Distribution
The volume of distribution of all dosage forms is the same.
Withdrawal
Excretion occurs mainly by the kidneys, to a greater extent, in the form of inactive metabolites. The half-life and total clearance are similar for all dosage forms.
Overdose
Symptoms: Toxic manifestations of benzydamine overdose include agitation, seizures, increased sweating, ataxia, chills and vomiting. Signs and symptoms of intoxication when ingestion of significant amounts of cetylpyridinium chloride: nausea, vomiting, edema, cyanosis, asphyxia followed by paralysis of the respiratory muscles, depression of the central nervous system, arterial hypotension and coma. The lethal dose for humans is about 1-3 g.
Treatment: in the absence of a specific antidote, treatment of acute intoxication with benzydamine is symptomatic. Treatment of an overdose of cetylpyridinium chloride is also symptomatic. In case of overdose, consult a doctor.
