In the article, we consider the instructions for use for the Natalsid candles.
Hemorrhoids are an unpleasant disease in the treatment of which an integrated approach must be followed. The composition of therapeutic measures must include not only the selection of the right diet, but also special therapeutic exercises, as well as medical support. In particular, the treatment of hemorrhoids involves the use of various ointments, rectal suppositories and gels for topical application. Rectal suppositories, which are made on the basis of natural components, are especially popular in the treatment of hemorrhoids. One of these drugs is Natalsid candles, which will be discussed below.
Description
According to the instructions, Natalcid suppositories are a hemostatic group drug that is intended for topical use. The medicine has a number of properties, including anti-inflammatory, regenerating and hemostatic. Candles have a torpedo shape, their color is gray with a cream tint.
Structure
Suppositories are made on the basis of two types of fats - vitepsol and supposir.
It is the combination of solid fats that allows the components of the drug to evenly distribute along the entire length of the suppository. The active component of Natalsida is the product of the processing of special brown algae, called kelp. This representative of marine flora contains a polysaccharide sodium alginate. This substance allows you to relieve inflammation and eliminate hemorrhoids.
Each rectal suppository includes 250 mg of sodium alginate. Besides him and the fats mentioned above, there is nothing more in the Natalside.
The properties
As the instruction indicates, Natalcid suppositories have a significant hemostatic effect. They relieve inflammation and soreness, regenerate the mucous membrane and stop rectal bleeding. The main component of sodium alginate is hyaluronic acid. The main task of acid is to regulate cell division. Under the influence of hyaluronic acid, the reproduction of healthy cells of the rectal mucosa is accelerated. All this allows you to quickly and effectively repair damaged tissue.
Alginic acid, also part of sodium alginate, has a water-retaining property. When it enters the anus, alginic acid expands and transforms into a gel-like mass, which is evenly distributed over the inflamed nodes and intestinal walls. This allows you to reduce the severity of pain and reduce sphincter spasm. Alginic acid can react with sodium. In this case, salt is formed, weakening peristalsis and bringing stools to normal.
Sodium alginate promotes the production of immunoglobulins, which increase the protective qualities of the intestinal mucous membranes. As a result, the mucous membranes of the sphincter and rectum become resistant to the negative effects of harmful microorganisms.
In addition to painkillers and hemostatic properties, suppositories have anti-inflammatory effects.
This is confirmed by the instruction for the Natalsid candles.
Indications
Rectal suppositories are prescribed for the following diseases:
1. Hemorrhoids in a chronic form, characterized by the development of hemorrhagic syndrome.
2. Cracks in the anus during the healing phase.
3. Proctitis and sigmoiditis.
4. Inflammation of the rectum arising in the postoperative period.
5. Colitis of various etiologies.
Adverse reactions
The drug is made on the basis of substances of natural origin, so the manifestation of adverse reactions when using candles is almost impossible.
According to the instructions for use and reviews for Natalsid suppositories, allergic reactions to the components of the drug are extremely rare and are accompanied by urticaria, peeling of the skin and itching of the anus. At the first signs of an allergy, you should abandon the use of suppositories and seek help from a specialist.
Contraindications
According to the instructions, suppositories from Natalsid hemorrhoids are not prescribed for individual reactions to components, as well as for hypersensitivity. In addition, rectal suppositories are contraindicated in children under 14 years of age due to the lack of clinical trials with this age group.
In exceptional cases, with incorrect treatment with Natalsid, some complications are possible associated with the development of paraproctitis, which is an inflammation of a purulent nature, localized in the rectum. Self-medication is not recommended to avoid serious health effects.
Instructions for candles "Natalsid"
Suppositories are administered rectally twice a day in the morning and in the evening after some preparatory measures. A candle is recommended to be inserted deep into the anus after a cleansing enema or an independent act of defecation. The instruction contains the following rules for the use of rectal suppositories:
1. Before introducing a suppository, it is necessary to wash the anus with soapy water. The drug is removed from the packaging, moistened with water and introduced into the anus in a comfortable position.
2. The suppository should be located in the anus so that it is behind the sphincter. This can be understood by the fact that nothing will impede the movement of the candle.
3. Before and after using candles, wash your hands thoroughly with soap. In addition, it is necessary to monitor the nails so that they are not too long, as this can injure the mucous membrane when a candle is inserted.
The duration of treatment with Natalsid is determined by the doctor, taking into account the characteristics of each patient. Most often, this period is from one week to two. If the achieved therapeutic effect is not satisfactory, an increase in the daily dosage and frequency of use of the drug is allowed.
Due to the local effects of the components of the drug, an overdose of rectal suppositories is excluded. There were no cases of interaction with other drugs. Therefore, there are no restrictions on the use of other medicines.
