Pharmacological action

Pharmacotherapeutic group-anticongestive agent-vasoconstrictor (alpha-adrenomimetic). ATX code-R01AA07 Pharmacodynamic Propertiesaxilometazoline (imidazole derivative) is a sympathomimetic drug with alpha-adrenergic activity. It has a vasoconstrictive effect and reduces swelling of the mucous membrane. The action usually starts within 5-10 minutes. The drug facilitates nasal breathing by reducing swelling and hyperemia of the mucous membrane, and also improves the discharge of secretions. Pharmacokinetic properties When applied topically, it is practically not absorbed, plasma concentrations are so low that they cannot be determined by modern analytical methods.

Indications

To reduce swelling of the nasopharyngeal mucosa and discharge in acute allergic rhinitis, acute respiratory infections with rhinitis, sinusitis, pollinosis, otitis media. Preparation of the patient for diagnostic manipulations in the nasal passages.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to any of the components of the drug, simultaneous use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAO) or other drugs that can cause an increase in blood pressure; arterial hypertension, tachycardia, severe atherosclerosis, glaucoma, atrophic rhinitis, surgical interventions on the meninges (in the anamnesis), children (up to 6 years – for a dosage of 0.1%, up to 2 years – for a dosage of 0.05%). With caution – IHD (angina pectoris), prostatic hyperplasia, thyrotoxicosis, diabetes mellitus, pheochromocytoma, in patients with hypersensitivity to adrenomimetics, accompanied by symptoms of insomnia, dizziness.

Side effects

Tyzine ® Classic may cause transient mild nasal irritation (burning), paresthesia, sneezing, and hypersecretion in susceptible individuals. In some cases, after using the drug, there may be increased swelling of the nasal mucosa (reactive hyperemia). Prolonged or frequent use of xylometazoline or its use in high doses can lead to a burning sensation in the nose or dryness of the mucous membrane, as well as reactive stagnation with the development of drug-induced rhinitis. This effect can be observed even 5-7 days after the end of treatment, and with prolonged use it can cause irreversible damage to the mucous membrane with the formation of crusts (dry rhinitis). In very rare cases, there may be headache, insomnia or fatigue, depression (with prolonged use in high doses). In isolated cases, local intranasal use of sympathomimetics may be accompanied by systemic effects, such as palpitations, tachycardia, arrhythmias, increased blood pressure, and visual impairment.

Interaction

Concomitant use of MAO inhibitors such as tranylcypromine or tricyclic antidepressants may lead to increased blood pressure due to the cardiovascular effects of these substances.

How to take, course of use and dosage

Children aged 2-6 years

Unless otherwise prescribed, one dose of Tizin® Classic in the form of 0.05% nasal spray dosed in each nasal passage 1-2 times a day.

Adults and school-age children (over 6 years old)

3 times a day, one dose of Tizin® Classic is administered in the form of a 0.1% nasal spray dosed in each nostril. The dose depends on the individual sensitivity of the patient and the clinical effect. Xylometazoline in the form of a nasal dosed spray should not be used for more than 5-7 days, unless the doctor has recommended a different duration of treatment.

After the end of therapy, the drug can be prescribed again only after a few days.

Always consult your doctor about the duration of use in children.

General introduction guidelines

Remove the protective cap. Before the first application, press the spray nozzle several times until a uniform cloud of “fog” appears. The bottle is ready for further use. When applying, tap once. The drug should be inhaled through the nose. If possible, hold the spray bottle vertically. Do not spray horizontally or downwards. After use, close the bottle with a cap.

Overdose

Symptoms of intoxication Overdose or accidental ingestion of the drug can lead to the following symptoms: dilated pupils, nausea, vomiting, cyanosis, fever, spasms, tachycardia, cardiac arrhythmias, collapse, cardiac arrest, hypertension, pulmonary edema, respiratory disorders, mental disorders. In addition, the following symptoms may occur: suppression of central nervous system function, accompanied by drowsiness, decreased body temperature, bradycardia, shock-like hypotension, apnea and coma. Treatment of intoxicationapplication of activated carbon, gastric lavage, artificial respiration with the introduction of oxygen. To reduce blood pressure, phentolamine 5 mg in saline solution is used intravenously slowly or 100 mg orally. Vasopressors are contraindicated. If necessary, apply antipyretics and anticonvulsants.

Special instructions

Prolonged use and overdose of sympathomimetics that have a decongestive effect can lead to reactive hyperemia of the nasal mucosa.

The recoil phenomenon can cause airway obstruction, which leads to the fact that the patient begins to use the drug repeatedly or even constantly. This can lead to chronic swelling (drug-induced rhinitis), and eventually even to atrophy of the nasal mucosa (ozen).

In the case of chronic rhinitis, Tizin® Classic 0.05% and 0.1% can only be used under the supervision of a doctor, taking into account the risk of atrophy of the nasal mucosa.

Tyzine ® Classic should not be used in the presence of hypersensitivity to benzalkonium chloride, which is included in the preparation as a preservative.

Do not exceed the recommended dose, especially in children and the elderly.

IMPACT ON THE ABILITY TO DRIVE AND USE MACHINERY
