3. Carbomer. It has an astringent effect, which contributes to its easy application to the affected area. The substance allows the ointment to envelop the place of application, creating the effect of a uniform distribution of active substances on the surface. Carbomer acts as a binder and ensures the absence of heterogeneity in the ointment.
4. Benzalkonium chloride. It has a disinfecting effect, adversely affects harmful bacteria, prevents their penetration into tissues and the appearance of infection. The substance is an antiseptic for local exposure.
5. Disodium edetate dihydrate. Promotes blood thinning and prevents blood clots.
6. Purified water. It is added to the composition of the ointment as a natural solvent.
