The name of the drug is due to its active ingredients - chlorophyll extracts a and b. These substances are obtained from eucalyptus. Decoctions and essential oil made from this beautiful plant of southern latitudes have long been used to treat infectious diseases of the upper respiratory tract.
Drug effectiveness
Immediately, it should be noted that the drug "Chlorophyllipt", unlike many antibiotics that have a wide spectrum of action, does not have such polyvalent antimicrobial activity. It is able to destroy mainly staphylococci, which make up a large army of pathogenic flora and are the cause of the development of various serious diseases, most often infectious diseases that affect the upper respiratory tract.
No species of staphylococci can resistantimicrobial action of the drug "Chlorophyllipt". Instructions for use indicate that different dosage forms of the drug with the same strength resist infection. And spray, and tablets, and a solution (alcohol and oil) successfully manifest themselves in the case of sinusitis, rhinitis, stomatitis, pharyngitis, tonsillitis and tonsillitis.
Scope and indications for use
The use of Chlorophyllipt tablets is intended exclusively for the treatment of infections of the mouth and throat, while solutions (both alcohol and oil) are used more widely.
So, they are effective in healing:
- diseases of the female genital organs (applied externally by douching);
- stomach ulcers, bronchitis (given orally in combination with other drugs);
- purulent wounds or burns (used topically);
- pneumonia and septic conditions that are caused by antibiotic-resistant flora (given intravenously).
But still, Chlorophyllipt is most often used for the throat in the form of gargles. An alcohol solution is also used in surgery for washing certain cavities of the human body with empyema and peritonitis. It is used by ENT doctors to clean the sinuses.
And this is not the whole list of conditions in which the medicine "Chlorophyllipt" is used in medicine. Instructions for use describe in detail all the indications for taking the drug. Let's take a closer look at some of the diseases in which this remedy will be effective.
Cervical erosion therapy
In this pathology, you should use the dosage form of the drug "Chlorophyllipt" - an alcohol solution. The instruction notes that immediately before using the medicine, it is necessary to thoroughly dry the surface of all folds of the vaginal mucosa and the part of the cervix located in it with a dry swab. After that, it is necessary to eliminate mucous secretions. To do this, the cervical canal should be wiped with swabs soaked in a solution of soda (5%) and dried again. Then this area of \u200b\u200bthe internal genital organs of a woman needs to be lubricated with a Chlorophyllipt solution. If an oil version of the product is used, then its concentration should be 2%, if alcohol - 1%. After all erosions have been treated with the drug, the tampon should be left alone on the cervix for a while (15-20 minutes is enough).
To achieve maximum efficiency, such a treatment procedure must be performed daily for 10 days. Then the patient must independently carry out the douching process for a minimum of 2 weeks. During this period, you need to prepare a fresh portion of the liquid for the procedure daily. To do this, add a tablespoon (25 ml) of an alcohol solution of Chlorophyllipt (1%) to 1 liter of water. After each douching, a swab with the drug should be placed in the vagina. It should be taken out after about 12 hours. If the epithelium does not fully recover during the treatment of erosion, the course of therapy must be repeated.
The use of the drug "Chlorophyllipt" for the treatment of children

For example, the treatment of the navel with "Chlorophyllipt" is performed if it is not possible to apply brilliant green. In addition, the drug is used to disinfect areas of the skin on which suppuration or rashes occur. Chlorophyllipt solution even has the ability to prevent complications such as pneumonia or a septic condition. Consult your pediatrician for specific recommendations and dosage.

However, the instructions for the throat do not recommend using it.
Alcoholicsolution
