pharmachologic effect

Pharmacological action - local anesthetic, glucocorticoid, anti-inflammatory local.

Pharmacodynamics

Fluocortolone

Fluocortolone, when exposed to the skin, prevents the accumulation of neutrophils, leads to a decrease in the lymphokine content and inhibition of migration of macrophages, contributing to a reduction in the processes of infiltration, exudation and granulation.

Fluorocortolone suppresses inflammatory and allergic skin reactions and relieves itching, burning and pain; Reduces dilatation of capillaries, interstitial edema and tissue infiltration.

Lidocaine

Lidocaine is a local anesthetic; Anesthesia is achieved by suppressing the formation and carrying out of nerve impulses along afferent nerve fibers by depolarizing the sodium channels.

Pharmacokinetics

Local therapeutic effect is achieved with a low level of active components in the blood plasma.

Fluocortolone

After a single rectal application, 1 g of cream or 1 supp. The absorption of GCS was at most 5% of the applied or administered amount of the drug.

In the period of daily administration of 2 soups. 3 times a day for 4 weeks the content of fluocortolone in the blood plasma did not reach the level that exerts systemic influence.

Fluorocortolone pivalate is hydrolyzed by esterases, enzymes of the inflammation focus, with the formation of fluocortolone, 11-ketofluocortolone and trimethylacetic acid. T1 / 2 from the plasma of fluocortolone and its metabolites after rectal administration were approximately 1.3 and 4 hours, respectively. Fluorocortolone is excreted from the body in the form of metabolites mainly with urine.

Lidocaine

The absorption and bioavailability of lidocaine following rectal administration of the cream or suppository is about 30% and 24%, respectively. T1 / 2 lidocaine from the blood plasma is 1-2 hours. In the human body, lidocaine is metabolized by oxidative N-dealkylation, hydrolysis of the amide bond and hydroxylation of the aromatic ring to form 4-hydroxy-2,6-xylidine, which is the main metabolite, with 70% of the drug in the form of this metabolite.

Indications

hemorrhoids;

Proctitis;

Eczema in the anus (rectal cream).

Contraindications

Viral diseases (eg chicken pox, vaccination reaction, shingles) in the area of application of the drug;

Treatment of children and adolescents due to the lack of data on clinical trials;

I trimester of pregnancy.

pregnancy and lactation

A number of epidemiological studies suggest a possible increased risk of development of the wolf mouth in newborns whose mothers received SCS inside the first trimester of pregnancy. Data on the use of local GCS during pregnancy is not sufficiently accumulated, but in this case the likelihood of adverse effects is very low due to the minimal bioavailability of GCS in topical application. Relief® Pro cream and suppositories should be administered with caution to pregnant women. When appointing pregnant and lactating women, it is necessary to compare the expected benefit of treatment for the mother with a possible risk to the fetus and the baby.

When prescribed by a doctor during pregnancy and lactation, the drug should be used for a short time.
