Hexalysis is a medicine that is used in diseases of the throat.
Indications of the hexalysis
It is used for local therapy in pathologies of inflammatory-infectious type in the mucous membrane inside the pharynx with the larynx and the oral cavity.

Release form
Release in tablets, 10 pieces inside a blister pack. In a separate pack - 3 blister plates with tablets.
Pharmacodynamics
Hexalysis is a combined remedy with a prolonged local effect. Possesses anesthetizing, anti-inflammatory, cleansing, and also disinfecting properties. All of them are due to the presence of 3 active components in the drug.
Biclutimol has a bactericidal effect on certain microbes - streptococci with staphylococci, as well as corynebacteria. Is able to coagulate proteins inside microbial cells. Biklotimol with enoxolone also have an anesthetic and anti-inflammatory effect.
Lysozyme is a natural polymucosaccharide with antibacterial action against germs of Gram-positive type, as well as with antiviral activity. In addition, the substance potentiates local cellular as well as humoral immunity. Slowing down the activity of histamine, lysozyme becomes a participant in the anti-inflammatory response, and with it helps to speed up the process of excretion of metabolites from damaged tissues.
Pharmacokinetics
Absorption of hexalysis is carried out by means of mucous membranes. This process is rather slow, due to which the drug is present for a long time in the mouth.
Use of the hexalysis during pregnancy
During pregnancy and lactation, Hexalysis is allowed only in situations where the possible benefit for a woman exceeds the probability of a fetus / child experiencing negative reactions.
Contraindications
Among the contraindications: intolerance of the elements of the drug, as well as children's age of less than 6 years.
Side effects of the hexalysis
Among the side effects can sometimes be observed: manifestations of allergies in the form of urticaria, puffiness of the lips, erythema, rashes on the skin and edema Quincke. Although the drug contains soy lecithin and methylparaben, in some categories of patients, allergy symptoms may occur.

Overdose
Due to the fact that the drug is very slowly absorbed into the circulatory system, the likelihood of an overdose is extremely low. But individually, there may be an increase in the severity of side effects.
