Indications Chlorophyllipt
In tablet form, it is used to eliminate pathologies of the upper respiratory system (such as tonsillitis with pharyngitis and laryngitis), in addition to stomatitis (its ulcerative or aphthous form).
A 0.25% solution is used for septic disorders of staphylococcal origin (arising after surgical operations, childbirth, and also infections), and at the same time to eliminate purulent-inflammatory complications of staphylococcal origin and developing after operations:
- staphylococcal endocarditis in individuals who have undergone heart surgery;
- burn disease;
- osteomyelitis;
- pneumonia;
- post-abortion sepsis;
- peritonitis or pleurisy;
- endometritis myometritis;
- gynecological pathologies of an acute or subacute inflammatory nature that are not related to abortion or childbirth;
- pyelonephritis of a purulent-destructive nature or complicated by the development of urosepsis (combined treatment).
The drug must be administered parenterally in certain diseases caused by the activity of non-staphylococcal pathogens resistant to the effects of drugs. For example, the drug is used for tuberculosis (any localization), erysipelas, and listeria infections.
A solution of the drug on an alcohol basis (1%) should be used to eliminate staphylococcal diseases of an infectious and inflammatory nature (this also includes pathologies caused by the activity of strains resistant to antibiotics).
Chlorophyllipt is also used to accelerate the healing of chronic wound surfaces, trophic ulcerative lesions, and in addition to this, for the treatment of cervical erosion, and at the same time, burn disease. The medicinal substance is also prescribed to prevent complications after operations. In addition, it is used for intestinal sanitation in people who are carriers of pathogenic staphylococcus.
The oil-based solution of the medicine is used to eliminate pathologies caused by the activity of antibiotic-resistant staphylococcal strains, and at the same time for sanitation - for persons who are carriers of pathogenic staphylococci. In addition, it is used as a lubricant for the tip of the canister during procedures for performing therapeutic enemas.
The use of LS is recommended in the following cases:
- burn diseases;
- difficult and long-healing wound surfaces;
- ulcerative pathologies of a trophic nature in the limbs;
- sphincteritis or hemorrhoids;
- gastric ulcer;
- ulcerative colitis;
- erosive form of proctitis;
- erysipelas;
- burns in the eye area, in which the corneal membrane is damaged;
- boils or carbuncles on the nose and in the nasolabial area;
- ENT diseases of purulent-inflammatory origin (the drug is effective in the treatment of ethmoiditis and sinusitis);
- dental pathologies;
- cracks in the nipple area in women during lactation.
An oil-based solution of Chlorophyllipt is prescribed for the treatment of such gynecological diseases as cervical erosion, vaginal tears, and also fistulas in the rectovaginal area.
In the form of a spray, the medicine is used during therapy for diseases caused by the activity of staphylococcal strains that are resistant to antibiotics: esophagitis, acute respiratory viral infections, tonsillitis, burns, and trophic forms of ulcers.

Pharmacodynamics
Chlorophyllipt is a mixture obtained from chlorophylls of eucalyptus leaves (Eucalýptus globúlus). It has an etiotropic and antimicrobial effect on staphylococci (including antibiotic-resistant and antibiotic-dependent strains).
The drug is capable of eliminating the resistance genes of microbes that cause bacterial infections to antibiotics that are part of the plasmid ecosystem. It also increases the oxygen level inside the tissues and has a pronounced detoxifying effect.
All these properties allow the use of the drug in cases of weakened natural immunity of the body, to eliminate tissue hypoxia, and in addition to this, to increase the medicinal effectiveness of antimicrobial agents taken together with the drug.
Experimental tests have shown that the drug has tropism for lung tissue and does not have teratogenic, embryotoxic, carcinogenic or mutagenic effects.
Bactericidal indicators of the drug in the blood are formed after a single injection of 8 ml of a 0.25% solution by the intravenous method. To obtain bacteriostatic values of the drug, a portion half as much is required. The medicinal level of the drug after intravenous injection is maintained for approximately 6 hours (on average) - therefore, it is most optimal to carry out injection procedures four times a day.
Dosing and administration
Use of medicine in tablet form.
For adults, the regimen for taking 12.5 or 25 mg tablets is determined based on the severity of the pathology. The tablet should be held in the mouth until it is completely dissolved. Swallowing or chewing is prohibited.
The dosage regimen is 1 tablet taken at intervals of 4-5 hours throughout the day. An adult is allowed to take a maximum of 125 mg of the drug per day. This course lasts an average of 7 days.
Use of drugs in the form of an alcohol-based solution.
During the treatment of burn diseases, pneumonia, and septic conditions, it is necessary to slowly administer the drug to the patient intravenously. The contents of a separate ampoule (2 ml of the drug) must be diluted in a sterile 0.9% saline solution of sodium chloride (38 ml) immediately before the procedure. The finished substance must be completely transparent.
Intravenous administration of Chlorophyllipt is performed four times a day, every day for 4-5 days. The size of a single portion is 40 ml.
In case of pyothorax or peritonitis, therapy lasts a maximum of 8 days. The medicine must be diluted in a solution (0.25%) of novocaine in a ratio of 1:20. Then the drug is administered to the patient into the pleural cavity using a drainage tube.
Application of the solution for local and oral use.
Chlorophyllipt based on alcohol (1%) can be taken orally or used topically.
The oral dose for an adult is 5 ml of the medicine diluted in plain water (30 ml). To prevent complications after surgery or for intestinal sanitation in people who are carriers of pathogenic staphylococcal strains, you need to drink the solution daily, three times a day (half an hour before meals).
During intestinal sanitation, the solution is administered using an enema - rectally. To prepare a solution for the 1st enema, 20 ml of the drug should be diluted in ordinary water (1 l). This procedure should be carried out once every two days. The entire course consists of 10 such procedures.
When using the drug locally (to treat burns, chronic wounds and trophic ulcerative lesions), it is diluted in a novocaine solution (0.25%) in a ratio of 1:5. Then, the affected area must be treated with gauze bandages soaked in the solution. This course lasts 2-3 weeks.
During therapy with ESM, before using the drug, it is necessary to dry all vaginal folds, as well as the vaginal area of the cervix using tampons. Next, you need to lubricate the cervical canal using Chlorophyllipt, previously diluted in a ratio of 1 to 10. These procedures must be repeated for 10 days.
Then, the patient is prescribed douching with the use of the drug for 14 days. To prepare this solution, you need to dilute 1 tablespoon of the substance in ordinary water (1 l). If after the end of the course there is no complete epithelialization of the cervix, it is necessary to repeat the course.
Using Chlorophyllipt oil-based solution.
The oil solution can be used topically or taken internally.
During therapy with ESM, the cervical canal is lubricated with it - a tampon soaked in the drug should be inserted into the vagina. The entire procedure should last about 15-20 minutes. This course lasts 10 days.
Then, the woman should use the medicine in the form of douches for 14 days. This solution is prepared in the same proportions as the alcohol solution. After each douching procedure, it is necessary to leave a tampon soaked in undiluted medicinal substance inside the vagina for 12 hours.
It is necessary to repeat the treatment course if complete epithelialization of the cervix has not occurred after the previous one.
In therapy for the elimination of chronic wounds and trophic ulcerative lesions, the drug is used locally - by applying dressings soaked in the drug to the affected areas (alternating with dressings soaked in an alcohol solution of the drug (1%), which was diluted in a ratio of 1 to 10).
The solution is used to lubricate the tip of the canister, which is used during medicinal enemas or in the treatment of local complications - sphincteritis or hemorrhoids.
During the treatment of diseases caused by the activity of antibiotic-resistant strains of pathogenic staphylococci, the oil solution is taken orally - in the amount of 1 teaspoon (volume 5 ml) four times a day. Such therapy should last for 2-3 weeks.
In the treatment of gastric ulcers, the medicine is used in combination therapy - 3 times a day, a portion of 1 teaspoon, for a period of 3 weeks. After 3 months, this course should be repeated.
The oil-based solution is used in the following mode:
- 1st dose - on an empty stomach, before breakfast (60 minutes). It is necessary to pre-mix the medicine in the oral cavity - until it becomes an emulsion. In this case, 1 teaspoon of the medicine must be mixed with plain water (30 ml);
- 2nd dose – after 4 hours, 1 hour before lunch. The medicine is taken in the same portion according to the same scheme;
- 3rd dose – before going to bed, 2 hours after dinner. The dosage remains the same.
In case of ulcers, the introduction of the drug using an endoscope – directly into the affected area – also shows high efficiency. This procedure should be carried out once a day for 10 days.
During the treatment of erysipelas, the medicine is applied locally, using dressings.
In dentistry (for example, in the treatment of stomatitis), an oil solution is used to treat gums and oral mucosa.
To eliminate ENT diseases (sinusitis or ethmoiditis), an adult should take the drug orally (single dose size - 5 ml; frequency of procedures - four times a day), in addition to this, using a nasal medicine. For an adult, the size of the instilled portion is a minimum of 10 drops / maximum half a pipette. This portion should be administered into each nostril 3-4 times a day. For children, the dosage is 2-5 drops.
The procedure for instilling the solution should be carried out lying on your back with your head thrown back. The patient should remain in this position for another 15 minutes after the procedure is completed.
For the treatment of the throat (such diseases as laryngotracheitis or laryngitis), as well as inflammation of the bronchi, the drug is used in a portion of 20 ml / day. This dose should be divided into 4 doses (for each dose - 1 teaspoon of LS). In such cases, Chlorophyllipt should be used for 7-10 days.
During the treatment of tonsillitis, pieces of cotton wool are soaked in the medicine, after which the affected tonsils are treated with them.
When eliminating acne (this includes chickenpox), and in addition to this, treating simple boils, dressings soaked in an oil-based preparation are used alternately with dressings that are soaked in Chlorophyllipt based on alcohol (1%), in a ratio of 1 to 10. These dressings must be changed 2-3 times a day.
To prevent cracks in the nipple area in nursing mothers, it is necessary to treat the nipples with the preparation after each feeding procedure. In this case, before the next feeding, it is necessary to wash off the remaining solution with boiled water.
Using the medicine in spray form.
For the treatment of respiratory pathologies of an inflammatory nature, children from 12 years old, as well as adults, need to use the spray 3-4 times a day: it is necessary to spray the substance on the pharynx, performing 2-3 injections. The medicine must be used for 3-4 days.
It is recommended to refrain from eating or drinking for 20-30 minutes after treating your mouth with the spray.
During therapy for erosions, burns, and trophic ulcers, it is necessary to apply a gauze napkin soaked in the spray to the affected area of the skin or mucous membrane - 2 times a day for 15-20 minutes. Wounds should be treated daily for 10 days.
Scheme for diluting Chlorophyllipt on an alcohol basis for gargling procedures.
The use of a 1% alcohol preparation is indicated for inflammations developing in the oropharynx. The proportions of dilution of the drug for patients of any age are the same.
When preparing a solution for rinsing, the medicine (in a dose of 5 ml) should be diluted in warm water (half a glass).
When rinsing, you need to use the entire portion of the resulting medicinal product. This rinsing should continue for at least 5 minutes. It is recommended to do it after meals, and do it at least 4-5 times a day (the optimal regime is with intervals between procedures of 3 hours). For half an hour after rinsing, you should refrain from eating and drinking.
When allowing pregnant women to use it for gargling, the medicinal solution should be diluted in the same proportions as for use in all other categories of patients.
An allergy test should also be performed before the procedure. This is done as follows: rinse your mouth with 25 ml of an alcohol substance that has previously been diluted in warm water (also 25 ml). If after 6-8 hours the woman does not show any allergic symptoms, the drug can be used for treatment.
Dilution of a medicinal product for inhalation procedures.
For inhalation, an alcohol-based solution (1%) is required. This method of therapy is used to eliminate staphylococcal infections that have formed in the respiratory tract.
The inhalation product is prepared according to the following scheme: Chlorophyllipt is diluted in saline solution in a ratio of 1:10. To perform a single inhalation procedure using a nebulizer, 3 ml of the prepared substance is sufficient. The treatment procedures should be repeated 3 times a day.
