Today very often doctors with a dry cough for children and adults prescribe the drug "Sinekod." Reviews about it are very different, but more negative.
I believe that for the most part they are caused by the fact thatthe drug is expensive, but does not have an instantaneous effect. But, reading the responses on the web, I realized that many people use this medicine without consulting a doctor. Naturally, this is unacceptable.
"Sinekod", reviews of which frighten manypatients - antitussive drug. So, like all other medications, you can drink it only on the advice of a doctor. There is a "sinecode" from a dry and wet cough. Everyone helps only with a certain kind of disease. Therefore, before collecting reviews or starting treatment, you need to get acquainted with the composition of the medication, instructions for its use, possible complications, contraindications.
The medicinal preparation "Sinekod" is produced ina kind of syrups and drops. Children are most often prescribed vanilla syrup "Sinekod", and adults - drops. The effect of the drug is based on the fact that it acts directly on the cough center located in the medulla oblongata. That's why he stops coughing, without depressing his breath. The medicine does not apply to opium preparations. Its main active ingredient is butamyrate. It expands the bronchi, improves spirometry and oxygenates the blood.
"Sinekod" (reviews of doctors confirm this) wellhelps with whooping cough, the cough of smokers, dry cough that occurs with various diseases. Its anti-inflammatory effect is pronounced brightly. The drug simply relieves cough.
"Sinekod syrup", reviews about which, basically,leave the parents of the kids, and the drops act the same. The drug is rapidly absorbed in the body, causing the formation of metabolites that bind to blood proteins. Since the pharmacokinetics does not change, the syrup and drops can be administered repeatedly.
Adult syrup has an ineffectiveeffect, they are assigned "Sinekod Drops". The testimonies indicate that they cough well. Drink drops better before eating, dissolving them in water.
Like any medical product, "Sinekod" hascontraindications. It can not be drunk for children under 3 years old, people with pulmonary hemorrhages, pregnant women, people prone to allergic reactions to the components of this medication.
The composition of the drops includes butamate, ethyl alcohol,Excipients. In the syrup, only butamyrate and auxiliary substances without alcohol. That is why in the most severe cases, children are prescribed syrup after 2 months. But it is best to apply this medicine to babies who are already 3 years old.
They say that you can start vomiting during treatment."Sinekod", reviews about which contain such information, most likely, was used in more than necessary quantity. The dosage of the drug is chosen by the doctor. If it is exceeded, vomiting, diarrhea, and nausea may actually begin. With a severe overdose, drowsiness, a sharp decrease in pressure, and loss of consciousness are possible.
In this case, it is recommended to rinse the stomach, giveto the injured enterosorbents, to call an ambulance. Depending on the severity of the condition, doctors can prescribe funds that support cardiac activity or increase blood pressure.
In general, there are no good or bad medicines. The body, its susceptibility in each person is very different. Therefore, what works great for one can turn out to be a poison for another.
Accepting "Sinekod" or any other medicine, remember: illiterate use of drugs can threaten death.
A small remark.It is hardly worth immediately starting to drink such a strong drug. Perhaps, at the very beginning of the disease, when you have a cough, it is worth thinking about folk methods of treatment? And, first of all, to part with bad habits. This everyone decides on his own.
