Pharmacodynamics
If we talk about the features of pharmacodynamics of Derinat, it is worth noting that the main effect of the drug is due to the properties of sodium deoxyribonucleinate and sodium chloride, which provide antiseptic and immunostimulating properties, antiviral protection, restore mucous membranes, and normalize metabolism.
[8]
Pharmacokinetics
First of all, such pharmacokinetics as the ability to stimulate the immune system, normalize the hormones, increase the adaptation potential of the body, eliminate toxins, remove puffiness and inflammation, prevent the development of infection attracts attention. The fight against infection is due to natural mechanisms. In fact, the drug stimulates the body's natural defense mechanisms, forcing it to fight the infection on its own and recover (the immunity and system of nonspecific resistance increase).
[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 is sharply reduced, the structure of mucous membranes, their protective functions are disturbed). Does not enter the bloodstream. It is aimed at increasing systemic immunity, improving the state of the whole, general endurance, body resistance. Normalizes hormones, which also changes dramatically during pregnancy, and hormonal disruptions and imbalances occur in the first stages.
Derinat in early pregnancy
It is used both to increase the body's resistance, improve its adaptive abilities, and in the treatment of emerging diseases. During pregnancy, in the early stages, Derinat eliminates the symptoms of intoxication, toxicosis, which allows you to effectively deal with symptoms such as nausea, headache, vomiting, itching and irritation throughout the body. A characteristic feature is the fact that in the early stages, the body is faced with the task of quickly adapting to new conditions. There is a sharp restructuring of the blood circulation, the main processes occurring in the body. Derinat will help the body to quickly and smoothly adapt to new conditions, increase compensatory, adaptive capabilities.
Another problem is that when pregnancy occurs, immunity decreases sharply (otherwise pregnancy would not be possible, because the body perceives the fetus as foreign, and the immune system destroys it). Therefore, at this time various diseases develop, chronic and latent diseases become more acute, latent and persistent infection is activated. Derinat can be used to treat and quickly normalize the condition. Contains a special spray that allows you to spray the throat, directing it directly to the focus of inflammation. There is an opportunity to carry out inhalations if there is a nebulizer at home: the medicine is poured directly into it, the device is collected, closed and the procedure is carried out. Breathe in through the mouth, exhale through the nose, and vice versa (no more than 15 minutes). It is used for sore throat, nasal congestion.
Derinat in the first trimester of pregnancy
In the first trimester, you can use any form of Derinat, since it is a natural and safe means. It effectively eliminates sore throat, nasal congestion, pain in the ear, eyes. The use of Derinat contributes to the accelerated recovery, adaptation, reduction in the number of pathogenic microflora and the normalization of the normal state of microbiocenosis of the mucous membranes, including the urogenital tract, which are also impaired. Women often have thrush and inflammatory processes. You can prevent and cure them with the help of Derinat: medical baths, washing away, irrigation of mucous membranes, tampons. Eliminates entry into the blood, since the drug carries only local effects.
Derinat in the 2nd trimester of pregnancy
In the second trimester of pregnancy, use of any form of Derinat is allowed, if there are no contraindications to this. It should also be borne in mind that in this case individual intolerance may occur, therefore, with the appearance of undesirable reactions, it is necessary to reconsider the treatment regimen.
[19]
Derinat in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy
Derinat is not always helpful in the third trimester of pregnancy. It is resorted to in case of extreme necessity, since in the third trimester the sensitivity of the organism usually increases, often intolerance of many components, including normal sodium chloride, is noted. But sometimes the use of Derinat is still necessary, because the benefits of treatment will be much higher than the harm from lack of treatment. In any case, the decision on the appropriateness of treatment is taken by the doctor.
[20]

Side effects Derinat

In exceptional cases, allergic reactions may occur. This is possible if a person has an individual intolerance to the substances that make up the preparation.
