PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacodynamics
A herbal preparation for the treatment of inflammatory diseases of the paranasal sinuses (SNP) and nasal cavity. The drug affects sensitive trigeminal receptors in the middle nasal passage and causes reflex secretion in the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and SNP. Stimulated hypersecretion is accompanied by a change in the rheological properties of the secretion and the normalization of its viscosity. Reflex hypersecretion in combination with the decongestant action of the drug leads to the evacuation of secretions from the sinuses to the nasopharynx and provides physiological drainage of all sinuses at the same time.
The drug helps to restore mucociliary transport in the nasal cavity and SNPs by increasing the presence of the liquid part of the secretion in the surface layer of mucus.
Sinuforte ® enhances microcirculation of the blood in the nasal mucosa and SNP. This is due to the fact that parasympathetic stimulation, which activates secretion, also causes vasodilation of the vessels supplying the glands.
Enhanced reflex secretion in the form of serous-mucous secretions is detected after a few minutes and can last from 30 to 120 minutes depending on the individual characteristics of the body.
Pharmacokinetics
The effect of Sinuforte ® is due to the combined effects of cyclamen components, the most studied of which are triterpene saponins. Kinetic studies are not possible since collectively the components cannot be traced using markers or bioassays. For the same reason, it is impossible to detect the metabolites of the drug.
Indications
– Comprehensive therapy of acute and chronic sinusitis: sinusitis, frontal sinusitis, ethmoiditis and sphenoiditis (in the case of purulent sinusitis, occurring with the phenomena of generalization of infection and / or orbital complications, Sinuforte ® should be used only in combination with antibiotics). In the uncomplicated course of the disease, it is possible to use the drug as a monotherapy under the supervision of a doctor
– Complex therapy of rhinosinusitis accompanied by exudative otitis media
– A period of early postoperative rehabilitation after endoscopic surgery on the paranasal sinuses.
Contraindications
– Hypersensitivity to the components of the drug
– Polypous rhinosinusitis
– Cysts of the paranasal sinuses
– Allergic rhinosinusopathies
– Allergic type III-allergic reactions (delayed)
– Pregnancy and lactation (safety of use during these periods has not been studied)
– Children under 5 years of age (use in children under 5 years of age has not been studied).
Use during pregnancy and lactation

– The duration of one course of treatment is 12-16 days with the introduction of the drug every other day or 6-8 days with daily use.
Side effects
There may be a slight or moderate burning sensation in the nasal cavity, salivary and / or lacrimation in response to irritation of the sensory trigeminal receptors.
In some cases, redness of the face, a short headache in the frontal region, or a pale pink colored discharge from the nose as a result of capillary diapedesis may appear. The above short-term physiological reactions confirm the reflex mechanism of action of the drug and do not require discontinuation of treatment.
Allergic reactions (including skin rash, shortness of breath, etc.) are possible. In these cases, it is recommended to stop taking the drug and consult a specialist.
