Enterosgel

click fraud protection

Enterosgel is an enterosorbent preparation with detoxification, anti-diarrhea and enveloping action.

Detoxication, as well as sorption properties of the drug are due to its ability to remove from the body endogenous and exogenous toxic elements. They include bacteria, toxins, heavy metals resins, antigens, various poisons, alcohol, food allergens. In addition, Enterosgel is able to absorb certain metabolic products. These products include bilirubin, lipid complexes, excess urea, cholesterol, a number of metabolites that are responsible for the appearance of endogenous toxicosis. Adsorption is carried out from the intestine and blood.

Enterosgel has established itself as a drug that has a regenerating and anti-inflammatory effect on the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines (prevents the development of erosion). The drug is non-toxic and does not affect the absorption of vitamins and trace elements. Enterosgel allowed to appoint children from the first month of life.

Enterosgel's composition in the form of a gel is 100% polymethylsiloxane polyhydrate. In 100 g of paste contains 70 g of active substance. As an auxiliary component in the preparation is purified water (in a volume of 30 g for every 100 g of product). The paste with a sweet taste also includes sweeteners E954 and E952.

Which is better, paste or gel?

If you compare the dosage forms by their effectiveness, they are equivalent, and they allow achieving equally good results of treatment. Nevertheless, some people note that paste (especially sweet) is easier to drink than hydrogel.

Pharmacological effect

The active component is not absorbed into the intestinal mucosa, does not undergo decomposition into metabolites or chemical reactions. The substance is removed from the body together with the absorbed toxic products 12 hours after ingestion. In combination with auxiliary components, polymethylsiloxane exerts the following effects on the body:

  1. Enterosgel sorbs the intestinal microflora, removing toxins, heavy metal salts, metabolic products, allergens, bacteria and antigens naturally.
  2. Eliminates manifestations of toxicosis, improves the efficiency of the liver and kidneys, normalizes the quality of urine and blood, improves the functioning of all the organs of the digestive tract.
  3. Components envelop the mucous membrane of the stomach, protecting it from mechanical and chemical aggressors, food allergens. Promotes the recovery of microflora.
  4. It starts the processes of regeneration of the protective layer of the intestinal mucosa and stomach, shortens the treatment time of many diseases.

Indications for use

What helps? Enterosgel is prescribed for adults and children as a detoxification agent for the treatment of the following diseases and conditions:

Patient Reviews

We offer to familiarize with reviews of people who used Enterosgel:

  1. Albina. Enterosgel removed toxins and toxins from the body, which was the cause of perpetual acne, up to acne. After the course, the skin became much cleaner. Periodically, I prophylaxis and drink this enterosorbent.
  2. Inna. The doctor explained to me that the microflora in the intestines is not yet mature in children, so even some foods, not to mention medicines, can break it. And Enterosgel at the reception gently envelops the walls of the zhkt and protects the microflora from harmful substances. Therefore, it is prescribed for colds, and for other diseases requiring treatment with pills and other forms of medication.
  3. Elena. Class enterosorbent. I follow, that always the tube in the first-aid kit lay. In many situations it was useful already, including poisoning even (it very well removes harmful toxins from the body - the state improves in the first day or two). Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea - everything happened to him when he just got poisoned not so long ago.
  4. Artem. I take Enterosgel from psoriasis. Like and not typical, but suggested that, like any metabolic problem, psoriasis is caused by accumulation in the body of any underscored rubbish, which provokes an exacerbation regardless of the treatment. Therefore, for lengthening the remission I take on a tea bed in the morning on an empty stomach. Allergens and slags detain and remove the drug, but vitamins and minerals are not affected, that is, they are freely absorbed and vitamin deficiency was not observed.

Analogues

Among the structural analogues of the active substance, the drug has only one preparation of the analog: Polymethylsiloxane polyhydrate. However, there is a whole class of other tools, similar in mechanism of action to Enterosgel, but used for appointment in similar cases:

  • Carbactin;
  • Carbopect;
  • Carbosorb;
  • Polysorb;
  • Sorbeks;
  • Smecta;
  • Activated carbon;
  • Ultra-adsorbent.

Before buying an analogue, consult your doctor.

Enterosgel or Activated Carbon - which is better?

In comparison with its analogue predecessor, Enterosgel has several advantages. First, it absorbs exclusively toxins from the body, and activated carbon along with them takes up also the substances necessary for man - minerals, vitamins, etc.

This selectivity is due to the fact that the pore size of polymethylsiloxane polyhydrate corresponds to the dimensions of only those molecules that are harmful to humans. Useful substances can not be absorbed because of the differences between Enterosgel pore diameter and their size.

Secondly, Enterosgel, unlike activated carbon, does not stick to the mucosa of the digestive canal, and, therefore, does not damage it even with prolonged use.

Enterosgel or Polysorb MP?

The basis of Polysorb MP is highly dispersed silica (silicon dioxide). It is produced in the form of a powder that can be used for external treatment of pustular skin diseases (used as a lotion or powder) and preparation of a suspension for oral administration.

Polysorb MP adsorbs metabolic products, toxic substances, enzymes, antibodies, microbes, individual protein-like substances, and also prevents growth of the focus of necrotic tissues, removes toxic substances from the site of injury, and also increases the ability to restore tissues.

Like Enterosgel, the drug does not hurt the mucous membrane of the digestive tract, but unlike Enterosgel is more often used for external processing of wounds (including purulent), mastitis, phlegmon, abscesses. Polysorb is well tolerated. The only side effect may be constipation.

The active substance Polysorb MP is considered to be the most effective for today: if 1 g of activated carbon allows to purify toxins from 1.5 to 2 square meters. m of the intestine, then an analogous amount of silica helps purify about 300 square meters. m.

Which is better: Enterosgel or Smecta?

Smecta is an aluminum magnesium silicate of natural origin. Like its counterpart, it does not injure the epithelial wall lining the gastrointestinal wall, but it can provoke constipation and - with prolonged use - to disrupt the absorption of nutrients and lead to hypovitaminosis.

Smectum is taken for 9-12 g / day, dividing the indicated dose into 3 or 4 doses.
