Pharmacodynamics

If we talk about the pharmacodynamic features of Derinat, it is worth noting that the main effect of the drug is achieved due to the properties of sodium deoxyribonucleate and sodium chloride, which provide antiseptic and immunostimulating properties, antiviral protection, restore mucous membranes, and normalize metabolism.

[ 8 ]

Pharmacokinetics

First of all, the following pharmacokinetic property attracts attention: the ability to stimulate immunity, normalize hormonal levels, increase the body's adaptive potential, remove toxins, relieve swelling and inflammation, and prevent infection. The fight against infection is carried out through natural mechanisms. In fact, the drug stimulates the body's natural defense mechanisms, forcing it to fight infection and recover on its own (immunity and the non-specific resistance system are increased).

[ 9 ]

Dosing and administration

Doses are determined by the severity of the pathological process or the purpose of treatment and are selected by the doctor.

• Derinat in the nose

Natural components ensure the maintenance of normal capillary permeability (during pregnancy, the permeability of small vessels decreases sharply, the structure of mucous membranes and their protective functions are disrupted). Does not enter the bloodstream. Aimed at increasing systemic immunity, improving the overall condition, general endurance, and resistance of the body. Normalizes hormonal levels, which also change sharply during pregnancy, and hormonal disruptions and imbalances occur in the early stages.

Derinat in early pregnancy

It is used both to increase the body's resistance, improve its adaptive abilities, and to treat diseases that have arisen. During pregnancy, in the early stages, Derinat eliminates the symptoms of intoxication, toxicosis, which allows you to effectively combat such symptoms as nausea, headache, vomiting, itching and irritation throughout the body. A characteristic feature is that in the early stages, the body faces the task of quickly adapting to new conditions. There is a sharp restructuring of blood circulation, the main processes occurring in the body. Derinat will help the body quickly and painlessly adapt to new conditions, increase compensatory, adaptive capabilities.

Another problem is that when pregnancy occurs, immunity decreases sharply (otherwise pregnancy would be impossible, since the body perceives the fetus as foreign, and the immune system destroys it). Therefore, at this time, various diseases develop, chronic and latent diseases worsen, latent and persistent infections are activated. Derinat can be used for treatment and rapid normalization of the condition. It contains a special sprayer that allows you to spray the throat, directing it directly to the site of inflammation. It is possible to carry out inhalations if you have a nebulizer at home: the medicine is poured directly into it, the device is assembled, closed and the procedure is carried out. Inhalation is done through the mouth, exhalation through the nose, and vice versa (no more than 15 minutes). It is used for sore throat, nasal congestion.

Women often have thrush, inflammatory processes. They can be prevented and cured with the help of Derinat: medicinal baths, douches, irrigation of the mucous membranes, tampons. Getting into the blood is excluded, since the drug has only a local effect.

In the second trimester of pregnancy, any form of Derinat can be used, if there are no contraindications. It should also be taken into account that in this case, individual intolerance may be observed, therefore, if adverse reactions occur, the treatment regimen should be reviewed.

[ 19 ]

Derinat in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy

In the third trimester of pregnancy, the use of Derinat is not always useful. It is used in cases of extreme necessity, since in the third trimester the body's sensitivity usually increases, intolerance to many components is often noted, including regular sodium chloride. But sometimes the use of Derinat is still necessary, since the benefit from treatment will be much higher than the harm from lack of treatment. In any case, the decision on the advisability of treatment is made by the doctor.

[ 20 ]
