It is necessary to strictly follow the rules of dosage, since even a minimal deviation from the norm in one direction or another can have negative consequences. So, reducing the dosage can lead to the fact that the drug will be ineffective, moreover, it can develop resistance. This contributes to the fact that the inflammatory-infectious process will progress, and the bacteria and fungus that caused it will undergo mutations and acquire new properties will become a new foci of infection (so-called secondary foci of infection are formed).

Borax in glycerin for stomatitis

For stomatitis, borax is used as a solution in glycerin for rinsing and lubricating the throat and mouth. Depending on the dosage used, it can have both fungicidal and fungistatic effects. In the first case, the fungal infection is completely destroyed, that is, the fungus completely dies. In the second case, the fungal activity is simply reduced, and its ability to reproduce is inhibited. In various situations, one or another effect may be required, and only a doctor can determine the dosage. At first glance it may seem that the most logical option is to destroy the fungus completely. It seems illogical is not its complete destruction. But it turns out that sometimes there is a need only to stop the reproduction of the fungus, since in case of its complete destruction dysbacteriosis can develop, which will lead to even more adverse consequences, and can cause re-inflammation or bacterial infection. It has no direct toxic effect on the body, it acts directly on the microflora, as well as on a system of nonspecific resistance.

Pharmacodynamics

Pharmacodynamics shows that the pharmacological properties of the solution is a tool with antiseptic properties. It has an effect on the fungal infection, that is, it acts directly on the cause of thrush. Accordingly, it is used in the course of etiological treatment. This explains the high efficiency of borax, since eliminating the cause of the pathology, the disease goes much faster. However, there is a risk of dysbacteriosis, since the drug is not selective, and it does not affect exclusively the fungal infection, but affects the entire microflora, including representatives of normal microflora. By reducing the number of normal microflora, there is a possibility that pathogenic microflora will develop in its place. It is worth noting that borax is not always used as an independent means, it is often included in other pharmaceuticals, and is part of the combined treatment. It reduces inflammation, has antimicrobial and regenerating effects. In addition, it acts on the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, reproductive organs, is used in otolaryngology, in the treatment of skin diseases. This not only removes the inflammatory process, but also stimulates the protective properties of the body.

Glycerin for thrush in a child

The main cause of thrush is the development of fungus. Thrush is also called candidiasis, by the generic name of the fungus that causes this condition.

It is against this background that the infectious-inflammatory process develops. The characteristic signs of thrush are itching, burning, white, cheesy discharge. To relieve symptoms and eliminate the inflammatory process will help borax, which is a solution of sodium tetraborate. It is used in many areas of medicine.
