Side effects

Overdose

Excessive use of ointment can lead to local allergic reactions (redness, itching, burning). As a rule, these manifestations go away if you start using an ointment with a lower content of pine resin or stop the drug altogether.

If the allergic reaction is severe and a large area of ​​skin is affected, you can treat the site of the allergy with a 40% ethanol solution to soften the reaction. To properly eliminate the consequences of an overdose, you should consult a specialist.

Instructions for use

pharmachologic effect

Biopin belongs to the group of antiseptics , is an effective remedy against inflammation, kills microbes, promotes wound healing and the rejection of dead cells, and increases the overall level of immunity.

In addition, the drug is active against gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes) and gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) bacteria . Moderately active as an antifungal agent.

The mechanism of action of the drug is associated with an increase in the efficiency of the cell's antioxidant system, an increase in the activity of low-molecular components of this system, an increase in the number of phagocytes (immune system cells that protect the body by absorbing harmful particles or dead cells), and suppression of fatty acid oxidation processes. In addition, the activity of neutrophils (a type of leukocyte that is also responsible for the immune response to the inflammatory process) increases.

If the wound does not bleed or fester, the bandage is changed twice a day. If there is excessive leakage of fluid from the wound, the dressing can be changed as it becomes saturated, but not less than 2 hours after application.

In the treatment of inflammatory diseases of the musculoskeletal system and the peripheral nervous system : similar to the treatment of a wound, the ointment is applied to a fabric bandage, which is applied to the affected area at night.

BIOPIN (ointment)

He picked up the baby, I “lay down” as best I could, or rather even fell.
They called an ambulance, and the ambulance said, throwing up its hands, “PARACETAMOL, that’s all a nursing mother can do, and after taking the pill, I shouldn’t feed the baby for at least three hours.” Or go to the hospital, refuse feeding... No comments.

No advertising products, ointments or painkillers are allowed.

I always hope for the best, if one doesn’t know, the other probably knows, and the next day I was taken to the clinic. With a flying gait - the upper part on one side, the lower part on the other - she entered the office of the local therapist. I laid out everything as it is, I say help...

The doctor, looking at me, terribly distorted, ran away somewhere, brought some kind of medical reference book, with the conclusion - we can’t help anything - breastfeeding women can’t do anything - neither internally nor for external use, everything passes into breast milk.

In my presence, the doctor called the head of the neurological department, who gave me another piece of practical advice: stop breastfeeding for the duration of treatment - which is 14 days, or continue to suffer.

In the end I left with nothing. All women know what it means to interrupt breastfeeding in the first month...

I went online, searched for two days, and found it: BIOPIN 20% ointment for external use. I read the instructions on the Internet and was very happy.

Indications for use

Inflammatory diseases of soft tissues and joints (myositis, myalgia, polyarthritis, osteoarthritis);

Traumatic injuries to the musculoskeletal system (muscle and ligament sprains, bruises, spondylitis);

Diseases of the peripheral nervous system with pain syndrome (neuralgia, osteochondrosis), etc.

And this is the main phrase that makes me happy.

PREGNANCY AND LACTATION

The drug can be used during pregnancy and lactation (breastfeeding) according to indications.

Here it is. I thought that our doctors, as always, surprise us, do they really not know such a drug, but I remembered that I live in a village with a population of 70 thousand people and calmed down.

But that’s not all, they started calling pharmacies in the city - they don’t know this drug, I called a nearby village with a population of 500 thousand people, they know there - hurray, BUT you need to do all this to order, and vacation is coming up - in two days, wait for the order week. That's how cool it is.

In the end, we left, suffering all this time for 5 days, of course, my back was more or less back in place and released.

We arrived in a village, 7 people live there permanently, three of whom know about this remedy; moreover, in the neighboring village it is sold in pharmacies. In the end, they bought BIOPIN and carried out treatment... But how it was missed that evening when the shooting occurred...

You need to apply a thin layer of ointment on a cotton cloth and apply it to the sore spot overnight. At first you feel a chill, then a slight itch, but not for long. After 7 times I practically forgot about the pain and discomfort.

It turned out that in the north people do not plant vegetable gardens and therefore do not resort to this remedy, so each region has its own diseases. Yes, I agree, but PREGNANCY is a ubiquitous matter, and medicine is so advanced and modern that I think it’s shameful to inflate such nonsense and make breastfeeding people suffer - in my case. And I am sure that there are much more effective remedies than BIOPIN 20%. But it seemed to me that I walked to BIOPIN for a very long time, I walked with pain, but I got there.

I have been feeding my child for more than a year, I have regular back pain, and I still resort to this ointment as needed, it always helps, but the course needs to be completed.
