Features of the drug
The main component acting Dimexidum - dimethylsulfoxide. This material penetrates through biological barriers in the body, even if the pre-breeding. Dimexide has analgesic effect, reduces inflammation. Also, it is characterized by a mild disinfectant and fibrinolytic influence.
Under the influence of dimethyl sulfoxide inflammation inhibition occurs in the tissues, normal fibrin formation, improves microcirculation. Dimexidum penetrates through the skin and mucous membranes, cell walls of pathogenic microorganisms and other biological membranes. Under its influence increases the permeability of the barriers is facilitated by the penetration of drugs used concurrently with Dimexidum.
Dimexide enhances the effect of:
- antiinflammatory and antimicrobial agents;
- rifampicin;
- chloramphenicol;
- Acetylsalicylic acid;
- Quinidine.
After application with Dimexidum which is diluted to a concentration of 90% dimethyl sulfoxide in the blood is detected already after 5 minutes. But the maximum amount of the drug is observed 4-6 hours after a compress. When applying application to the area of the joints it penetrates into the joint cavity.
If you make compresses from a concentrated Dimexidum not dilute it in advance, there is a risk of chemical burns. Side effects of the drugs can worsen.
Indications for use
Patients prescribed lotions, pre telling how to prepare Dimexidum solution compress. Depending on the available evidence, the severity of the inflammation and pain, will determine how to breed the drug correctly. Use may be as a 10% or 90% solution.
Recommend breeding tool and use it for external use in:
- pathologies of the musculoskeletal system;
- inflammation of the skin, subcutaneous tissue;
- wounds with pus;
- thrombophlebitis;
- phlegmon of different localization.
More often advised to plant Dimexidum and compresses patients with such diagnoses:
- Ankylosing spondylitis;
- traumatic infiltrates;
- deforming osteoarthritis;
- bruises;
- low back pain;
- stretching ligament apparatus;
- erysipelas;
- erythema nodosum;
- acne;
- arthropathy;
- rheumatoid arthritis;
- systemic sclerosis;
- streptoderma;
- abscesses.
But make application better, after consultation with the doctor and the diagnosis. The doctor may prescribe a comprehensive treatment, tell us how to breed to compress Dimexidum how often you can apply it to the problem area.
use method
To achieve maximum effectiveness of the treatment, it is necessary to follow the rules. No compression is done from a concentrated Dimexidum its pre-diluted with clean water. As the solvent recommend taking either boiled distilled water.
Before first use, you must make a test to assess the sensitivity. For this Dimexidum applied on a cotton swab (it can not diluted) and is applied briefly to the skin. In the presence of intolerance, allergy patients almost instantly develop a hypersensitivity reaction. The skin becomes red, itching, some complain of a feeling of dryness.
Impregnated with a solution better than gauze or a white cotton cloth. Please note that Dimexidum (even if it is pre-diluted with water according to the rules) penetrates through the skin and increases the permeability of biological membranes. If you soak them colored cloth, then dye may trigger the development of a local allergic reaction: there is the likelihood of irritation, dermatitis, eczema.
Apply compresses Dimexidum for 10-14 days without a break. On prescription topical treatment may be extended to 4 weeks. Applications are made to the 20-60 minutes. Such a duration sufficient that the active ingredients absorbed into the body. In most cases, the compress 1 a day, but when expressed pain syndrome can be done to 2-3 applications daily.
Importantly, do not forget to dilute Dimexidum to compress, not to get a chemical burn, not to provoke the appearance of possible side effects. If you do not raise funds, the likelihood of complications increases.
The concentration is chosen according to the established diagnosis:
- for local anesthesia using 30-50% solution;
- at pustular skin lesions recommend means diluted to 40%;
- patients with scleroderma, eczema prescribed 40-50%;
- at erysipelas, trophic ulcer drug required to breed up to 30-50%;
- for the treatment of deep burns bandage 20-30%;
- in diffuse streptoderma Dimexidum plant to be 40-90%.
Also after trasplantologicheskih Dimexidum operations used to compress, it must be diluted to a concentration of 10-20%. Bandages applied to the transplanted skin, accelerating the engraftment. Also Dimexidum which is previously diluted to 5% solution of Ringer's skin homografts stored.
cooking rules
To obtain the desired concentration of the solution, it is necessary to deal with the breeding rules.
To obtain a 10% solution, 1 part of plant is required preparation 9 parts of water. To prepare the 90% solution must take means 9 parts water and 1. The most popular 30% solution was obtained when diluted with 3 parts Dimexidum 7 parts of pure water. The easiest way to prepare a 50% concentration for this water and the concentrate are mixed in equal proportions.
Many people who decide to plant a means for making compresses on their own without consulting a doctor, use a 40% solution. It is made of 2 parts Dimexidum and 3 parts water.
When first using its means can be diluted with water in ratio 1: 3, the result is a 25% concentration. It is also advised to use it if it is necessary to apply lotion to sensitive skin, for example, in the area below the knee.
Focusing on the production of solutions rule readily prepare the desired concentration. While respecting the patient receives the required amount of dimethyl sulfoxide. Liquid can be metered in ml or tablespoons. The spoon 1 contained 15 ml.
Used in higher concentrations the solution to accelerate healing and alleviate pain inappropriate. In severe pain doctors recommend adding a solution of sodium Diclofenac, Novocaine, Hydrocortisone. Increase the effectiveness of treatment can, if alternate use of different medicines, rather than just use Dimexidum.
other combinations
To get rid of the pain and reduce inflammation in the shortest possible time, many are advised to add to compress Diclofenac. This is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent for topical application directly affects the focus of inflammation, reducing its intensity.
Breeding Dimexidum compresses diclofenac carried out by the standard procedure. It is necessary to make 30-50% solution and add 1 vial of Sodium Diclofenac. Keep on the problem areas it should be about 1 hour.
Rapid pain relief and promotes a combination Dimexidum Novocain.
Dilute preparations necessary for such a scheme:
- 15 ml Dimexidum;
- 15 ml distilled (boiled or chilled) water;
- 10 ml Novocain (it is necessary to use a 2% solution).
Number of Novocain can be increased according to the doctor's recommendation. Some advise diluted Dimexidum Novocaine 0,5% and in a ratio of 1: 2 without adding water. But before such use is advisable to consult a doctor and test the response of the organism to a combination of said preparations. To do this, moistened cotton swab to be applied to the skin and wait a few minutes.
Popular prescription according to which should be added to cooked 30-50% solution Dimexidum 1 ampoule hydrocortisone. Hormonal agents are used to reduce inflammation quickly.
