"Coletex gel" is a fairly effective tool that is used during combination and radiation therapy. The universal composition provides not only a preventive, but also a therapeutic effect on the specific reactions of the body. The drug allows you to restore damaged mucous membranes and skin, which often occur as a result of radiation therapy. "Coletex gel DNA" with Derinat significantly accelerates the healing process of wounds that remain open for a long time.

Composition and release form

"Coletex gel" has proven itself as a high-quality medicine that is actively used in modern medicine. The active ingredient of the drug is lidocaine hydrochloride, which has a powerful analgesic effect. As excipients are used:

Pharmacodynamics of the drug

Before applying the drug to problem areas, the patient must study the instructions for use. "Coletex gel" with regular use leads to inhibition of nerve conduction, as a result of which nerve endings and fibers are blocked. Experts have proven that lidocaine is significantly more effective than procaine.

The drug has an antiarrhythmic property, which is due to a significant increase in the degree of membrane permeability, general cell stabilization and specific blocking of sodium channels. But even with prolonged use, the gel does not significantly affect the conduction of the myocardium. Exceeding the permissible dosage is fraught with the development of a negative inotropic effect.
