Inhalation with different medications using a nebulizer helps deliver medications to the child's airways. This enhances the therapeutic effect of drugs and speeds up recovery. Among the drugs used for nebulizer inhalation, there is a group of antiseptics. One of the representatives of this group is a drug with a wide range of applications, which is called miramistin.
Why do we need it?
Inhalations, during which miramistin is poured into the nebulizer, accelerate the elimination of colds and other diseases of the respiratory organs, including purulent diseases. The procedures have antimicrobial effect and promote healing of mucosal lesions.
Indications
Miramistin procedures in childhood are recommended for:
- laryngitis;
- purulent otitis media;
- tracheitis;
- sinusitis;
- tonsillitis;
- burns and wounds.
Miramistin has been repeatedly researched and proven that it is completely safe to use this antiseptic in childhood. In addition, the lack of taste and smell is called the advantages of using such a drug for nebulizer inhalations.
Contraindications
Inhalation with miramistin is unacceptable for bleeding of the mucous membrane of the oral or nasal cavity.
Also, such procedures are not carried out with:
- bronchiectasis;
- tuberculosis;
- exacerbation of bronchial asthma;
- pneumothorax;
- pulmonary or heart failure;
- individual intolerance;
- type 1 diabetes mellitus.
Dosage and instructions for use
For inhalation, a liquid form of the drug is used. It is not necessary to dilute miramistin with water. It is more preferable to use an ultrasound model of a nebulizer for such procedures, since this type of device breaks the preparation into smaller particles, which prevents the appearance of mucosal burns. The recommended duration of inhalations with this drug is from 5 to 15 minutes, taking into account the age of the child.
