pharmachologic effect

The medicine is a combined antitussive drug.

Codeine has an antitussive effect of central origin, reducing the excitability of the cough center.

Thermopsis herb contains alkaloids that increase bronchial secretion and accelerate its evacuation, thereby providing an expectorant effect.

Sodium bicarbonate alkalizes bronchial mucus, reduces the viscosity of sputum, and activates the motility of the bronchial epithelium.

Licorice root has an expectorant effect. It has an antispasmodic effect on smooth muscles and an anti-inflammatory effect.

Thyme herbal extract consists of a mixture of essential oils, which, by enhancing the activity of the ciliated epithelium of the mucous membrane of the upper respiratory tract, increasing the amount of secretion, diluting sputum and accelerating its evacuation, have an expectorant, anti-inflammatory, and bactericidal effect. Additional effects of thyme are also mild antispasmodic and healing.

    Pharmacological properties

    Pharmacodynamics

    A combined drug for the treatment of cough, it has a mucolytic and expectorant effect, and also has anti-inflammatory activity.

    The action of Codelac® Broncho is due to the pharmacological properties of its components:

    Ambroxol has a secretomotor, secretolytic and expectorant effect, normalizes the disturbed ratio of serous and mucous components of sputum, and increases the secretion of surfactant in the alveoli. Reduces the viscosity of sputum and promotes its removal.

    Glycyrrhat (glycyrrhizic acid and its salts) has anti-inflammatory and antiviral effects. It has a cytoprotective effect due to its antioxidant and membrane-stabilizing activity. Potentiates the effect of endogenous glucocorticosteroids, providing anti-inflammatory and antiallergic effects. Due to its pronounced anti-inflammatory activity, it helps reduce the inflammatory process in the respiratory tract.

    Thermopsis extract has an expectorant effect, having a moderate irritant effect on the receptors of the gastric mucosa, and reflexively increases the secretion of the bronchial glands.

    Sodium bicarbonate shifts the pH of bronchial mucus to the alkaline side, reduces the viscosity of sputum, and stimulates the motor function of the ciliated epithelium and bronchioles.

    Pharmacokinetics

    Ambroxol.

    Suction. Ambroxol is characterized by rapid and almost complete absorption from the gastrointestinal tract. Bioavailability is 70-80%. The maximum concentration in blood plasma after oral administration is achieved within 1-3 hours. Plasma protein binding is 80-90%.

    Distribution. The transition of ambroxol from the blood to tissues when taken orally occurs quickly. The highest concentrations of the active component of the drug are observed in the lungs. Penetrates the blood-brain barrier, placental barrier, and is excreted in breast milk.

    Metabolism. Approximately 30% of an ingested dose undergoes a first pass effect through the liver. Studies on human liver microsomes have shown that CYP3A4 is the predominant isoenzyme responsible for the metabolism of ambroxol. The remainder of ambroxol is metabolized in the liver to inactive metabolites.

    Excretion. The half-life (T ½) of ambroxol is about 10 hours. Excreted by the kidneys: 90% in the form of metabolites, 10% unchanged.

    Pharmacokinetics in special groups of patients.

    No clinically significant effect of age and gender on the pharmacokinetics of ambroxol was found, so there is no basis for dose adjustment based on these characteristics. The clearance of ambroxol in patients with severe liver failure is reduced by 20-40%.

    In severe renal failure, T ½ of ambroxol metabolites increases.

    Trisodium salt of glycyrrhizic acid (sodium glycyrrhizinate).

    After oral administration, in the intestine, under the influence of the enzyme β-glucuronidase, produced by bacteria of normal microflora, an active metabolite is formed from glycyrrhizic acid - β-glycyrrhetic acid, which is absorbed into the systemic circulation. In the blood, β-glycyrrhetic acid binds to albumin and is almost completely transported to the liver. The excretion of β-glycyrrhetic acid occurs predominantly in bile, with residual amounts in urine.

    Thermopsis dry extract.

    The components of the extract are well absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum effect occurs 30-60 minutes after oral administration and lasts for 2-6 hours. They are excreted from the body by the kidneys, mucous membrane of the respiratory tract and bronchial glands.

    Sodium bicarbonate.

    Well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum effect occurs 30-60 minutes after oral administration and lasts for 2-6 hours. They are excreted from the body by the kidneys, mucous membrane of the respiratory tract and bronchial glands.

    Buy Codelac Neo syrup 1.5 mg/ml 100 ml in pharmacies

    Instructions for use Codelac Neo Dosage forms syrup 1.5 mg/ml 100 ml Synonyms Omnitus Sinecode Group Non-narcotic antitussives International nonproprietary name Butamirate Composition Active substance: butamirate citrate - 7.5 mg. Manufacturers Pharmstandard-Leksredstva OJSC (Russia) Pharmacological action Pharmacodynamics. A non-opioid antitussive agent that has a direct effect on the cough center. It has an antitussive, expectorant, moderate bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory effect, improves spirometry (reduces airway resistance) and blood oxygenation. Pharmacokinetics. Suction. After oral administration, the drug is quickly and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. After taking 150 mg of butamirate, the maximum concentration of the main metabolite (2-phenylbutyric acid) in the blood plasma is reached after approximately 1.5 hours and is 6.4 mcg/ml. Distribution and metabolism. Hydrolysis of butamirate initially to 2-phenylbutyric acid and diethylaminoethoxy-ethanol begins in the blood. These metabolites also have antitussive activity, and, like butamirate, are 95% bound to plasma proteins. This is due to the long half-life of the drug from plasma. 2-phenylbutyric acid is partially metabolized by hydroxylation. When taking the drug again, no accumulation is observed. Excretion. The half-life is 6 hours. All three metabolites are excreted primarily in the urine. Moreover, 2-phenylbutyric acid is mainly excreted in the form associated with glucuronic acid. Side effects From the central nervous system: less than 1% of cases - dizziness, which goes away when the drug is stopped or the dose is reduced. From the digestive system: nausea, diarrhea.
