Composition and effect of the drug

Rotocan for inhalation with a nebulizer can be used due to the presence of several active components that have therapeutic properties. The composition of the medicine is completely natural, except for the alcohol base, which is necessary to extend the shelf life of the medicine.

Main components of the medicinal solution:

Pharmaceutical chamomile in the form of flowers.
Medicinal calendula flowers.
Common yarrow.

Chamomile is present in the solution in the greatest quantity, as it has pronounced therapeutic properties. The combination of natural components has a mild antimicrobial, strong anti-inflammatory, hemostatic effect. In addition, the solution is considered a good antiseptic, despite the absence of artificial components in the composition.

Additionally, the medicine has regenerating properties, and has a particularly positive effect on the mucous membranes of the mouth, throat and lower respiratory tract.

Chamomile in the product penetrates the outer layers of tissues, destroys pathogens that provoke inflammation. Thanks to this, gradual tissue restoration and improved blood circulation occur.

Additionally, chamomile flowers are considered a good natural antiseptic, which helps prevent the proliferation of microorganisms and their spread to healthy tissue. As a result, the patient recovers without the use of potent medications based on synthetic ingredients.

Calendula flowers have a regenerating effect, that is, they stimulate the formation of new cells that replace those destroyed during illness. As a result, foci of inflammation are delayed, and the patient’s condition improves quite quickly. In addition, calendula flowers prevent various complications that arise during prolonged healing of inflamed areas.

Yarrow is considered a good hemostatic, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory plant. It is actively used even in the treatment of hemoptysis in patients with advanced forms of pneumonia and bronchitis, who additionally suffer from thrombophlebitis.

The product does not provoke the formation of clots in the affected area, but effectively stops bleeding, stimulates tissue restoration and healing of the lesion. At the same time, the plant extract has a positive effect on the tissues of the bronchi, lungs, and upper respiratory tract.

The presence of yarrow in the composition allows you to relieve spasm of the respiratory tract, which is important in the treatment of chronic forms of pathologies of the respiratory system.

When using the medicine for inhalation, its active components are well absorbed into the mucous membranes, and also enter the patient’s blood in small quantities. They are not processed in the body, since the drug is eliminated through the respiratory tract.

Thanks to this use, there is no accumulation of active components in the patient’s blood, which reduces the likelihood of overdose and severe negative reactions.

In patients suffering from obstructive pathologies of the respiratory tract, a slowdown in the action of the drug is observed. However, in patients with acute forms of the disease, the effect of therapy can be noticed almost immediately after the start of use.

Overdose

There have been no recorded cases of drug overdose, but doctors do not exclude such a possibility. As a rule, the internal organs of the system suffer. Manifestations rarely affect the entire body; in most cases, the severity of symptoms depends on the characteristics of the body and the duration of use of the solution.

Organs and systems	The most common signs of overdose and consequences
Nervous system	Severe migraine-like headaches occur most often in adult patients. In this case, the patient cannot perform ordinary manipulations or engage in mental work. Almost all the time it is carried out in a horizontal position, loud sounds and bright lights aggravate the pain. The consequence of such complications is considered to be vascular spasm, which significantly worsens the condition and can lead to the development of other disorders.
Vessels and heart	Tachycardia and arrhythmia are considered common manifestations of overdose in elderly patients. Sometimes their blood pressure drops to critical levels, which is considered a reason to cancel therapy and consult a doctor. If left untreated, a coma may develop.
Digestive tract	Loose stools and frequent vomiting are rare in cases of overdose. However, its most dangerous consequence is considered to be dehydration, which occurs when the patient is unable to consume a sufficient amount of fluid, as well as when its absorption is impaired.
Skin	An allergic reaction, which manifests itself in the form of peeling, rash, itching of the skin, can develop into urticaria or Quincke's edema. Urticaria is characterized by aggravation of the allergic reaction, the addition of unbearable itching and the spread of red, large spots throughout the body. Quincke's edema is considered a dangerous condition in which swelling of the mucous membranes of the throat occurs, causing difficulty breathing and even suffocation.

Such complications are considered rare, but if they occur, it is recommended to immediately stop using the solution and visit a doctor to receive symptomatic therapy.

special instructions

The medicine is made on an alcohol basis (ethanol at least 33%). The maximum daily dose of the working solution contains ethanol in the following quantities:

250 ml of water and 5 ml of Rotokan - 32 g;
250 ml of water and 15 ml of Rotokan - 95 g.

Alcohol dosages should be taken into account when using the drug, especially if it is administered orally or rectally. Also, the medication, due to its ethanol content, reduces the reaction rate, so it should not be used by patients who work with machinery (drivers, mechanics).

Benefits of inhalation with Rotokan

Rotocan for inhalation with a nebulizer is used quite often today, which is due to its advantages over other medications.

The main advantage of this method of use is the penetration of the vapors of the plant solution directly into the affected bronchi and lungs. Thanks to this, a therapeutic effect is achieved without concomitant negative effects on the organs of the digestive tract.

The use of Rotokan helps reduce the amount of synthetic products that have not only positive, but also negative effects on the body.

Pain in the bronchi and lungs when using the herbal solution disappears almost immediately, which is also considered an advantage and allows the medicine to be used as an emergency remedy.

An additional advantage is the natural composition of the product, which reduces the risk of complications, although it does not completely eliminate it. In addition, Rotokan can be used in combination with other medications if the disease is severe and one solution is not enough to eliminate symptoms.
