Pharmacological action
Bystrumgel has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-exsudative action. The destructive effect on articular cartilage is not noted.
The biological availability of the substance is low - about 5%.The agent reduces stiffness in the joints, swelling, facilitates movement.
Pharmacokinetics of
When the drug is used externally, it takes an extremely slow absorption of the active substance, so that its concentration in the inflammatory focus is maintained for a long time.
Entering the systemic blood stream is insignificant. The medicinal substance in the body practically does not accumulate. Ketoprofen easily penetrates into the synovium and connective tissue.
In what cases is the
used? The drug is indicated for the following diseases:
- sciatica of the lumbosacral spine;
- arthritis( inflammation of the joints);
- acute lumbar pain;
- periarthritis( inflammation of the periarticular tissues and ligaments);
- tendonitis( inflammation of the tendons);
- rupture of ligaments;
- muscle rupture;
- rheumatoid arthritis( chronic inflammation of the joints);
- lymphangitis( inflammation of the lymph nodes);
- arthrosis( deformation, limitation of mobility of joints);
- spondylitis( inflammation of the intervertebral joints);
- tenosynovitis( inflammation of the protective membrane of the tendon);
- sports injuries;
- osteochondrosis( dystrophic disorders in articular cartilage);
- soft tissue injuries;
- phlebitis( inflammation of the vein wall);
- bursitis( inflammation of the joint bag);
- meniscus damage;

How the agent acts on the body
The effect of the gel is due to the non-selective blocking of cyclooxygenase( isoenzymes COX-1 and COX-2).The result of the action is the interruption of the metabolism of arachidonic acid.
Reduction of the inflammatory process occurs due to a decrease in the synthesis of bradycardin, histamine and prostaglandins. Effects on isoenzymes reduce the permeability of vascular walls.
Active substance inhibits the activity of free radicals, protects against cell membrane effects.
Ketoprofen weakens oxidative phosphorylation, disrupting the normal synthesis of mucopolysaccharides, as a result of which the development of the fibrinoid stage of the inflammatory process in rheumatoid diseases is suspended, and the proliferative process( proliferation of tissues by cell division) also stops.
Active component of the drug blocks energy metabolism due to lowering of ATP-synthesis and thereby reduces energy supply to the inflammatory focus. Reducing swelling and inflammation leads to a decrease in pressure on the pain receptors, which also provides an analgesic effect.
Instruction for use
The gel is rubbed into the skin. The single dosage depends on the area of the lesion.
The average dose is up to 5 cm of the area covered by the affected area. It is also possible to apply more equipment( with a large area of damage).

exanthema( korepodobnoe rash), purpura( capillary hemorrhages on the skin).

Reviews of doctors
I recommend this drug to my patients with bruises, sprains, ligaments, sports injuries. The agent acts gently and effectively.
However, for any painful feelings, the reasons for which the patient is not clear, it is necessary to undergo a comprehensive examination, because even minor at first glance discomfort can be a consequence of a serious disease.
Kirill Leonidovich
All preparations for external use, part of a group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, have approximately the same effect. The patient can recommend several similar mechanisms for the effect of the means, from which he will choose for himself the appropriate option( based, for example, on the price).
As for Bystrumgel, it acts quickly enough, however, care must be taken during initial application, since allergic reactions are possible.

I was diagnosed with an osteochondrosis for a long time. What ointments and gels have not tried. Heard that a good drug Fastumgel, but it is not cheap.
I asked pharmacies about analogues, the pharmacist recommended Bystrum gel. The drug works well for pain in the back and neck, the main thing is to apply it correctly( ie, small amounts).After application, irritations on the palms are not observed, as after other ointments.

I bought a gel for a child on the recommendation of a doctor. The son after an unsuccessful jump damaged the ankle joint. The drug helped well, did not cause any irritation. Edema and swelling passed quite quickly. Another advantage is the absence of unpleasant odors and dyes.
