Enterosorbents, use in the treatment and relief of exacerbations of psoriasis - Page 4 - Preparations of general (systemic) therapy.

Good afternoon, many will be interested in understanding their health and their loved ones, and I will tell you my experience, and we will talk about Enterosorbent Polysorb for psoriasis: instructions for use, analogues and reviews. Most likely, some details may differ, as was the case with you. Please note that you should always consult with highly specialized specialists and not self-medicate. Naturally, you can quickly find the answer to the simplest questions and diagnose yourself. Write your questions/suggestions in the comments, and together we will improve and supplement the quality of the material provided.

Contraindications

Despite the local action and lack of influence on the body, Polysorb has restrictions on its use. It is not recommended to take the drug in the following cases:

acute peptic ulcer;
bleeding in the stomach or intestines;
neoplasms;
abnormalities of intestinal development due to the possible development of obstruction;
autoimmune intestinal diseases during exacerbation (Crohn's disease);
individual sensitivity to the components of the drug.

The drug is prescribed with caution for chronic constipation, since enterosorbents can cause increased aggregation of water in feces. To prevent constipation, it is recommended to drink enough water per day (up to 3 liters).

Before using enterosorbents, intestinal abnormalities (megacolon, additional loop of the sigmoid colon) are excluded to avoid stagnation during treatment.

Contraindications for use

Like any other drug, Polysorb has a number of contraindications for use. Among them:

gastrointestinal disorders;
individual intolerance to the components of the drug;
gastric ulcers (in the acute phase);
intestinal atony.

Enterosorbents influence absorption processes in the intestines. This fact must be taken into account when selecting the dosage of other medications, since the effectiveness of the drugs is reduced.

Reviews from people who took Polysorb for psoriasis indicate the possibility of constipation during the course of treatment. Such an unpleasant procedure as an enema will help quickly resolve this issue and further speed up the process of removing toxins and impurities from the intestines. But with regular stool retention, a doctor’s consultation is necessary.

The instructions indicate that allergic reactions are possible during treatment with Polysorb. Swelling, itching, and redness are grounds for stopping taking the medication.

Useful tips

When treating psoriasis with Polysorb, special attention should be paid to nutrition. The presence of dietary and gentle products is welcome. In addition, it is important to monitor your water balance by drinking at least 2 liters of liquid.

Of course, with the help of this drug alone it is difficult to cope with psoriasis, but in combination with other drugs it plays an important role. The removal of toxic substances that accumulate in the body and provoke the disease significantly speeds up recovery. But no matter how harmless the drug may seem, taking it without a doctor’s recommendation is extremely undesirable. In order to avoid possible complications, contraindications and dosages should be taken into account.

Enterosorbents are not a panacea for psoriasis, but people have been convinced of the effectiveness of their use for a long time. In combination with other therapeutic drugs, treatment methods and folk recipes, Polysorb sometimes works real miracles and makes the disease recede for a long time. The main thing is to adhere to all the rules and recommendations of doctors, and not try to engage in amateur activities.

Use of the drug for psoriasis

The ambiguous causes of psoriasis mislead both specialists and ordinary people who do not know where the skin disease comes from.

For several years, scientists have been unable to come to a consensus and find out the reason.

For many years, scientists have been elucidating the origins of psoriasis. There is still no clear answer to this. There is an assumption that the disease appears as a result of a hereditary factor. This skin disease appears due to a genetic predisposition. Everyone notes that it is completely impossible to defeat the disease, and it is not easy to fight it.

Many people suffering from psoriasis have been using various methods for many years and choosing the treatment for themselves. Scientists, meanwhile, are developing new methods and innovative drugs to help alleviate the inflammatory process on the skin. There is simply a huge selection of such drugs, the selection of which is important to approach wisely.

Among all the medications for psoriasis, there is not a single drug whose manufacturer would guarantee complete recovery from the disease.

The treatment of this disease requires an integrated approach, including:

taking certain medications;
special dietary food;
giving up alcohol and smoking;
physiotherapeutic measures;
rehabilitation in a sanatorium.

Thanks to the beneficial effects of Polysorb, the body is cleansed of toxic substances. After all, metabolic disorders are one of the causes of psoriasis. As a result of dysfunction of metabolic pathways during illness, toxic compounds are formed, resulting in inflammatory processes. This is called endointoxication.

The skin is an organ of excretion; a large number of toxic substances are initially reflected on it and manifest themselves in the form of rashes and irritations of various types. Endointoxication cannot be called the root cause of psoriasis, but it can act as a provocateur, as a result of which an exacerbation and worsening of the negative condition of the skin is inevitable.

Polysorb has a beneficial effect on the body. Under its influence it is possible to:

remove the toxic load from the skin;
restore normal skin cell function;
relieve swelling, redness;
reduce rashes.

This enterosorbent is available in the form of a white powder from which a suspension is prepared. There is nothing complicated in its preparation. The dosage for an adult is 1 tbsp. l. powder for 1 tbsp. pure water, free of gases and additives. The dosage for children per glass is 1 tsp.

The mixture must be thoroughly mixed and drunk in one go. This should be done 60 minutes before eating or taking medications.

The permitted daily dose of the drug for adults is 12–24 g, for children – 150–200 mg/1 kg of weight. It is strictly not recommended to take more than 1/2 the daily dosage of the drug at one time. The daily dose should be divided into 3-4 doses. The course is about 15 days. In case of an acute form of the disease, the course must be repeated after a break of 2 weeks.

The best time to use this medicine is the off-season period, when unpleasant symptoms of psoriasis are most likely to appear.

Compound

According to the pharmacological group, Polysorb belongs to the enterosorbents.

Sorbents are drugs that can bind harmful substances in the intestines in the form of allergens and toxic breakdown products. In bound form, these substances leave the digestive tract without penetration into the human blood and without metabolic transformations in the intestines, that is, in unchanged form.

Polysorb is colloidal silicon dioxide. Silicon dioxide has strong adsorption properties, unlike enterosorbents.

The occurrence of allergic reactions requires discontinuation of the use of the sorbent substance.

Enterofuril or Polysorb, which is better?

For diarrhea of non-infectious origin, allergies and intoxication (including alcohol) - Polysorb is undoubtedly better. Enterofuril is useless in these cases.

For various types of intestinal infections, Enterofuril is better, since it directly destroys harmful bacteria and microorganisms without affecting beneficial intestinal microbes.

Why and why only raw?

Currently, you can find a lot of information about the raw food diet on the Internet and on the shelves of bookstores, which contains various advantages of raw plant foods over processed ones. As usual, anatomical, physiological, everyday and logical evidence of the effect of CE/CME on the body is given.

Below I will list the main ones:

Raw plant foods are much easier for the body to process, since the nutrients contained in the products do not denature. To assimilate denatured substances, the body must perform “additional work,” that is, a sequence of additional biochemical reactions.
Any processing of a raw product, be it boiling, frying, baking, baking or freezing, completely destroys a large number of vitamins and enzymes found in the raw product. The absence of enzymes complicates the digestion of the product in the stomach, and the lack of vitamins that should be in the product causes “slight bewilderment” in the body and leads to disruption of the functions of internal organs, and, accordingly, in the future to new diseases or deterioration, exacerbations of old ones.
Some research and practice of raw foodists shows that the microflora of the human intestine, that is, the microorganisms inhabiting it, to ensure a healthy state of the body, “herbivorous” microorganisms must prevail. In this case, it is the symbiotic microflora that develops in the intestines, that is, the microflora that is friendly to our body, the waste products of which are substances (vitamins and amino acids, for example) necessary for our body. At the same time, putrefactive microflora is suppressed, the waste products of which are toxins, which, in general, only poison our body.
There is no need to cook J. Many who switch to such a diet note such a plus as freedom from the hated process of cooking food and the subsequent washing of a mountain of dishes J. And since there is no need to cook and wash dishes, time is freed up, which is also good, you can do various more interesting and useful things J.
Many people report saving money. But this depends on several factors. You must understand that at first the body will ask for a lot of food due to the lack of a usual diet, so more money will be spent, but over time, when the condition normalizes and the body gets used to it, the amount eaten will decrease. Also, the amount of money spent on food depends on the place of residence of the raw foodist. In the north, raw fruits, vegetables, and nuts will cost more, especially in winter, and their quality will not be the best. In warmer places, of course, raw products will be cheaper and the quality will be better.
Conventional nutrition, with the slogan “everything that fits in your mouth is healthy,” leads to illness. To do this, just go outside and look around. The number of sick people in modern times is off the charts, the number of diseases and patients is increasing, the number of pharmacies, dental clinics, various pills, diagnostic methods and “treatment” is growing, but health is not particularly J. Although, if you think about it, all this should decrease. If modern science and modern thought about a healthy body were really developed, as the media and “people from science” broadcast about it, then we would not even think about diseases and methods of self-healing. But no, you have to think and act on your own, since modern medicine, despite the ever-increasing number of pills, equipment, and treatment methods, still cannot cure various diseases. And we are not talking about serious illnesses, but even very simple ones. Trivial, acne, it would seem nothing serious and not fatal, but even here medicine cannot cope. Again, just go outside and look around. If such a simple problem could be solved by medicine, then we wouldn’t have people with acne.
Cleansing the body. Since raw food is easy for the body, it takes much less energy to process it; in addition, it does not “clog” the body, since it does not contain denatured substances or harmful substances that appear during cooking (heavy metals, carcinogens). As a result of the release of energy, the body spends it on the processes of restoring the functioning of organs, cleaning body fluids (blood, lymph, intercellular substances), blood vessels, etc. In addition, the pH (acid-base balance) changes, which also has a generally positive effect on the functioning of the body and suppresses the life and development of pathogenic microflora, including parasitic organisms of various stripes - bacteria, viruses, worms, fungi, which is also very important for both general health improvement, and for the treatment of a specific disease (for example, psoriasis).

Preparations and medicines for psoriasis

Crema
Ointments
Gels
Sprays
Oils
Homeopathic remedies
Shampoos
Psoriasis patches
Herbs and infusions
Chinese funds
Tablets and injections

How and by what methods can psoriasis be cured? Today this skin disease is considered one of the most difficult to treat. It is characterized by a chronic course with periods of severe exacerbation. Therefore, the main goal of treatment is transfer to “sleep mode” - the remission stage.

There are many effective psoriasis medications to relieve symptoms. They can be divided into two groups:

drugs for oral administration;
means for external use.

Drugs are prescribed individually depending on the type of pathology, the characteristics of the course and the specifics of the patient’s body.

Crema

Creams are considered one of the most effective means of relieving the symptoms of psoriasis. Their components are the active substance, oil, emulsifier and water. Due to the low fat content, it provides a dry effect on the skin. The specific choice of remedy is determined by the symptoms that appear.

Vitamin D creams

Calcipotriol is a synthetic analogue of vitamin D3. Can be used simultaneously with hormones. Leads to a lasting effect. The cream does not have an atrophic effect on the skin. A better result can be achieved by combining treatment with UV irradiation.

Cream Akriderm

Has the following properties:

anti-inflammatory;
antiexudative;
antipruritic;
antiallergic;
decongestant.

The active ingredient is betamethasone dipropionate, a corticosteroid. It suppresses phagocytosis, reduces tissue permeability, and prevents swelling.

Kremgen is a combination drug for psoriasis. Perfectly relieves inflammation, itching, and eliminates signs of allergies. Local application avoids inhibition of the activity of the adrenal cortex.

Other popular remedies include:

Mesoderm;
Uniderm;
Triderm;
Betaderm.

Ointments

Preparations in the form of ointments used to treat psoriasis are divided into two groups:

hormonal;
non-hormonal.

The main advantage of hormonal drugs, or glucocorticosteroids, is the effective and rapid elimination of symptoms. However, their use often provokes the so-called withdrawal effect, in which the effect of the drug ceases, and refusal to use it turns out to be problematic.

Significant disadvantages of hormonal ointments for psoriasis include the presence of a large number of adverse reactions and contraindications. They negatively affect the liver, endocrine system, kidneys, heart and blood vessels.

Of the glucocorticosteroid medications for psoriasis, the best are those with the following active ingredients:

Triamcinolone - is part of such ointments as: Berlicort, Kenalog, Fluorocort, Nazacort, Triacort. The drugs have anti-inflammatory, antiallergic, antipruritic effects. Side effects: irritation, itching, eczema, with long-term use - atrophic and infectious skin lesions.
Flumethasone, fluocinonide acetonide, fludcortonol are contained in Locasalen, Sinalar, Locacorten, Flucort, Flucinar. Main actions: antipruritic, antiexudative, antiallergic. Side effects: burning, itching, skin atrophy, hypopigmentation, stretching, systemic disorders.
Mometasone is an extremely effective drug that is part of the following drugs for psoriasis: Skin Light, Momat, Uniderm. The action is similar to the drugs of the previous series.

Less effective, but safer, is the use of non-hormonal ointments. Most often prescribed:

Salicylic ointment;
Daivobet;
Kartalin;
Belosalik;
Akrustal;
Zinc ointment

Gels

Gel remedies for psoriasis are intended for the treatment of:

vulgar psoriasis on exposed skin;
pustular form of skin psoriasis;
psoriasis of the scalp;
nail psoriasis;
joint psoriasis;

There are also universal drugs to treat many types of the disease.

Gels are available for oral and topical use. The first (for example, Xamiol gel) are used to eliminate symptoms in open areas. Their action is to envelop the affected skin with a gel structure.

The main function of oral medications is to remove toxic substances from the body, mainly accumulating in the stomach and intestines. One of the popular and effective remedies for psoriasis is Enterosgel, used to treat the gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, and liver, the condition of which determines the general condition of the immune system and skin.

Sprays

These drugs are considered quite effective when used in remission. They are intended for daily care of affected skin. Sprays for psoriasis do not contain hormonal components. They have anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, antiseptic and moisturizing effects.

Skin Cap

The basic component of Skin Cap spray is activated zinc pyrithione. Used to treat scalp:

effectively eliminates the symptoms of psoriasis;
restores the protective layer of the skin;
improves hair structure;
inhibits the growth of fungi, pathogenic bacteria, viruses.

The duration of treatment is 3-6 weeks.

Spray 999

This drug is used for daily care of skin affected by psoriasis. Has antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, moisturizing effects. Does not contain hormones, does not leave greasy marks or shine.

Oils

Along with medications, oils are widely used today in the treatment of psoriasis. This type of therapy is not new: oils have been used in Russian villages since ancient times. The main disadvantage of this method is the possibility of an allergic reaction due to the plant origin of the components. To eliminate the symptoms of psoriasis, two types of oils are used:

ethereal;
food.

From the first group, the most effective products are oils:

oregano;
bergamot;
jasmine;
cedar;
lavender;
carrots;
chamomile;
mint;
black cumin;
tea tree.

Sea buckthorn oil is an excellent remedy for psoriasis: it eliminates inflammation, irritation, and stimulates skin regeneration.

One of the most commonly used foods is flaxseed oil, which stimulates the skin regeneration process. It turns out to be effective even in advanced forms of the disease.

Olive oil relieves dry and flaky skin.

Burdock is an excellent remedy for damage to the scalp. It improves local blood circulation and restores skin in the area of damaged bulbs.

Homeopathic remedies

Homeopathic medicines are widely used to treat psoriasis. They are prescribed individually, after examining the patient. Homeopathy is effective only if the remedy and dose are selected correctly.

Psorinohel and Psoriaten ointment are complex preparations used for various types of disease.
Acidum formicum - used for severe skin irritation, severe itching, burning, redness, which intensifies in cold weather.
Arsenicum album is effective in cases of fine-plate peeling.
Arsenicum iodatum - recommended for the treatment of elderly, debilitated patients.
Hydrocolitis - used for severe peeling and the formation of round lesions on the body.
Calcarea carbonica - used for rough peeling.
Petroleum is effective for nail psoriasis.
Manganum - prescribed if the disease has affected the joints.

Shampoos

In the complex treatment of psoriasis of the scalp, the use of special shampoos plays an important role. Along with traditional ones (for example, those containing tar), new highly effective products are used.

All antipsoriatic shampoos can be divided into the following groups:

Tar

They contain pine, juniper or birch tar, which helps relieve irritation, itching and flaking of the scalp. The products also contain special antifungal components.

Antifungal

These shampoos are designed specifically to fight fungal infections. The active substances and additional components they contain destroy a wide variety of fungi. The most famous product in this series is Nizoral.

Medicinal

Help fight infection. Contains zinc, salicylic acid or ichthyol. From this series, Skin-Cap shampoo with zinc is very popular, which has an antimicrobial and antifungal effect.

Cosmetic

They are excellent remedies for psoriasis, have a healing effect on the scalp, eliminate dryness, and strengthen hair. The most effective: Friederm Balance, Natura, Sulsena, “Harmony of Pure Metals”.

Composition of drugs

The basis of Polysorb is highly dispersed silica with particle sizes up to 0.09 mm and the chemical formula SiO2. The product is available in bags or jars with powder for preparing a suspension for oral administration. The main active component in it is colloidal silicon dioxide. There are no auxiliary components.

The main substance of Enterosgel is methyl silicic acid in the form of a hydrogel. 100 g of Enterosgel paste for oral administration contains the active ingredient polymethylsiloxane polyhydrate (70 g) and the excipient – purified water (30 g).

Activated carbon cleanses of toxins, and this is very important for psoriasis. Any skin disease is a consequence of the accumulation of harmful substances and toxins in the body.

Activated carbon does this job perfectly and costs pennies.

A thin layer of dry powder is applied to the affected area of skin, and a tight gauze bandage is placed on top. The procedure must be repeated three times a day for at least 2 weeks.
Treatment in the form of applications. To prepare the sorbent mixture, it is necessary to mix the drug granules with water in equal proportions. Then, using a cotton pad, the thick mixture is applied to the sore spot and secured with a bandage.

Polysorb. Instructions for use

Those who have heard about enterosorbents and their effectiveness have definitely heard about Polysorb, as it is becoming no less popular than activated carbon. Using the product is not difficult. In addition to internal use, external use is also possible. For example, for skin diseases such as psoriasis, dermatitis or eczema, the product will be more effective if used externally.

The dosage is calculated based on the patient's weight.

The average dosage for an adult is three grams of product per 250 ml of water. The mixture should be carefully placed and taken orally an hour before or after eating.

According to the instructions, the product should be used four times a day. The average duration of treatment is 2 weeks per course, of which there may be several.

Since we are talking about psoriasis, it is important to note that external use is also acceptable here. Polysorb can be used externally in two ways:

Since the product is in dry form, it is applied in this form to the skin affected by the disease and a damp bandage is applied on top. The bandage needs to be changed quite often - three times a day.
Another way is to use applications with the product. To do this, it is mixed with water in equal proportions, mixed very thoroughly, applied to a bandage or gauze and left on the affected area for half an hour.

When treating with enterosorbents, one of the important points is nutrition. You should not eat fatty or fried foods during treatment. The diet should consist of dietary products. It is also very important to drink enough water daily - at least 8 glasses of 250 ml per day.

To achieve greater efficiency, Polysorb must be used in combination. Experts believe that psoriasis is caused by intoxication of the body with harmful substances that this enterosorbent cleanses from the body. A person’s health is directly affected by the good functioning of his gastrointestinal tract and lifestyle, and sorbents help in solving this problem.

Before use, consult your doctor.

Analogs

The effectiveness of Polysorb for psoriasis can compete with:

Activated carbon. The available medicine is used to remove chemical poisons from the body, but is slightly inferior in therapeutic effects.
Ecoflor. Available in the form of grains, used only for oral administration, contraindicated in children under 3 years of age.
Polyphepan. A universal plant-based drug used to remove toxins, poisons, heavy metal salts, and allergens from the body. Acts at the cellular level. Available in tablet and powder form. Can be used externally and for oral administration.
Lactofiltrum. A combined drug that helps remove toxins from the body and improve the functioning of the digestive system. Available in tablet form, approved for use in patients over 1 year of age.
Enterosgel. It has high absorbing properties and is used to remove toxins, excess cholesterol, allergens, and infectious agents. The disadvantage is the high cost of the drug.
Smecta. It is used to normalize the functioning of the digestive system, remove bacteria and their metabolic products from the digestive system.

The prescription of the drug and its replacement with an analogue must be carried out by the attending physician.

Composition of "Polysorb" and its beneficial properties

The effectiveness of Polysorb for psoriasis is explained by its natural and safe components. The main one in the instructions is highly dispersed silica - silicon oxide. Thanks to the uniquely small particle sizes, this is the best product with sorption and detoxification properties.

Immediately after entering the intestinal lumen, it actively binds and then removes pathogenic toxic microorganisms, waste and food allergens, metal salts and drug residues, radionuclides and ethyl alcohol. Therefore, the body gains strength to resist inflammation and allergic reactions of the skin in the form of itching and irritation.

Additionally, "Polysorb" absorbs the body's own unnecessary substances - excess bilirubin, urea, as well as cholesterol and metabolites, which are responsible for the appearance of endogenous toxicosis.

Contraindications and side effects

Due to the fact that dermatologists use this product for long-term use, it is necessary to take into account the risk of developing unwanted changes in the body. The list of contraindications and side effects for the drug is small, but ignoring it can cause a severe disturbance in the water-salt balance and a malfunction of the digestive system.

The drug is not recommended for use in patients who have:

Intolerance to the active component.
Weak intestinal motility.
Bleeding in the digestive tract.
Exacerbation of peptic ulcer disease.

In rare cases, the drug may cause the development of:

Chronic constipation.
Negative response from the immune system.
Disorders of the digestive system.

Long-term use of Polysorb impairs the absorption of calcium and vitamins, therefore, in the treatment of psoriasis, parallel intake of a complex of multivitamins and minerals is necessary.

Polysorb. Description of the medicine

The main component of the drug in Polysorb is silicon dioxide, which has antibacterial and vascular-strengthening properties.
Polysorb is considered an enterosorbent, that is, a drug that binds endogenous and exogenous substances in the gastrointestinal tract due to adsorption, which is carried out by the main constituent substance. The most well-known enterosorbents include activated carbon. Polysorb is available only in powder form, which must be dissolved and taken orally. As doctors indicate, 1 tablespoon of Polysorb replaces 120 tablets of activated carbon.

Firstly, it removes toxic substances. Many medications can be toxic, in addition to them, harmful substances in the atmosphere, various viruses and bacteria, Polysorb also removes from the body.
Secondly, the drug has antibacterial properties.
Polysorb removes various synthetic substances, metal compounds, and radioactive substances.
Thanks to the drug Polysorb, it is possible to remove antigens from the body, which are the root cause of allergies.
The product relieves alcohol intoxication by removing alcohol.
It has a protective effect on the gastrointestinal tract due to the absorption of all negative substances.

Activated carbon also belongs to enterosorbents. Let's compare the two drugs: charcoal acts much more slowly and is less effective than Polysorb. Polysorb begins to cleanse the body within a couple of minutes.

Polysorb can be bought everywhere in all pharmacies. The price varies depending on the weight of the product purchased and the region in which it is sold.

However, the drug is inexpensive. The smallest package costs from 35 rubles. A package with 12 grams costs from 100 rubles, and a large package containing 25 grams of medicine costs from 190 rubles.

Recommendations for use for psoriasis

Dermatologists believe that the drug should be used to stop the process of intoxication of the body by using it internally or externally. The dosage is calculated taking into account the patient's body weight. For oral administration, the powder must be diluted in water and stirred thoroughly. For 1 glass of warm water take 1 tbsp. l. medications. The drug is drunk 1 hour before meals. The duration of the course is 14 days.

For external use, sprinkle the powder on the affected areas of the skin, apply a sterile bandage on top and moisten it slightly. The bandage must be changed 2-3 times a day. It is also possible to use the medication for applications. To do this, the powder is mixed with water in a 1:1 ratio, the resulting mass is applied to the lesion and covered with a sterile bandage for 30 minutes, after which the skin is cleaned of drug residues. The procedure is performed 2-3 times a day.

During therapy, it is necessary to adjust the diet, giving preference to dietary products. To prevent disturbances in the water balance in the body during treatment with sorbents, the amount of fluid consumed should be increased. Additionally, it is recommended not to be nervous or worry, and to provide the body with proper rest.

Many people tend to believe that the treatment of psoriasis

– the process is absolutely fruitless. And that this disease can only be “healed” by slightly removing its obvious symptoms. Little is known about the causes of this unpleasant disease. In fact, doctors have been solving the problem for a long time - how to treat psoriasis? And they carefully study everything related to this kind of medical mystery.

Many experts tend to believe that psoriasis

(the treatment of which does not yet have a strict, clearly verified scheme) is a consequence of physical and emotional overload. Among the reasons cited are immune disorders and contact types of work. The most amazing thing is that while the patient can actively seek an answer to the question of how to treat psoriasis, this insidious disease can disappear without a trace. The sudden appearance and disappearance of psoriasis to this day has not found a logical justification from a medical point of view.

Psoriasis

is a skin disease that manifests itself as redness and severe peeling, accompanied by itching. Typically, psoriasis affects skin areas on the bends of the arms and legs, in the buttocks and shins. If psoriasis is not treated promptly, it can lead to complications in the long term (for example, progressive arthritis).

Diagnose the disease and prescribe treatment for psoriasis

Only a doctor can. The fact is that itching and rashes can be symptoms of many skin diseases, so it is important to consult a doctor at the initial stage of the disease.

Please note that doctors consider this disease to be an individual disease. Therefore, they approach each case separately and each one is prescribed a different treatment for psoriasis. But, unfortunately, no treatment can prevent the exacerbation of psoriasis. And this is not surprising, because it has long been noticed that after the symptoms of this disease disappear, immunological and biochemical laboratory parameters still do not normalize.

The role of sorbents in the treatment of psoriasis

When a person gets psoriasis, his body succumbs to the harmful effects of various toxins and allergens. They accumulate inside the gastrointestinal tract, which is why they begin to affect the tissue.

If you take sorbents, they remove all accumulated harmful substances from the body. As a result, your general condition improves, and other medications begin to work as before. Therefore, sorbent preparations, in particular Polysorb, are recommended by many specialists in the treatment of psoriasis. By taking them, you can quickly improve your well-being.

The sorbent helps eliminate severe exacerbation of skin pathology if taken in consultation with a doctor. The medicine is available in powder form, which must be dissolved in plain water or any other liquid. For dermatitis and psoriasis, it is recommended to take the drug an hour before meals three times a day.

Treatment of this disease is a long process, as a result of which the disease goes into remission.

At this stage, the patient can lead a normal active lifestyle, he is not bothered by inflammation and peeling of the skin, and there is no pain or burning in the places where the pathological process is localized.

Enterosorbents are drugs that are administered parenterally, passing through the gastrointestinal tract, they absorb many toxins and metabolites of various origins. Polysorb is one of these drugs.

The main active ingredient, which ensures active adsorption of substances harmful to the human body, is colloidal silicon dioxide.

The drug itself looks like a white or slightly bluish powder, odorless and tasteless. In the pharmacy chain, it is fashionable to buy this drug in plastic jars of 12 g, 20 g, 50 g, you can also buy the product in disposable paper bags of 2 g of active ingredient in each.

Polysorb is a universal sorbent medicine that can be used for all diseases accompanied by intoxication (allergic, alcoholic, bacterial).

In the appearance and development of psoriasis, liver performance plays an important role. After all, the main function of the liver is to cleanse the blood of harmful substances; when the organ cannot cope with the task, synthetic sorbents come to the rescue.

How to take this drug, you ask. The exact dosage of the medicine and the duration of its use will be determined by the attending physician, taking into account the individual characteristics of each patient and the severity of intoxication for a particular disease.

Statistical data confirms this fact and suggests that with regular use of Polysorb, rashes on the body decreased in 80% of all patients.

On average, the drug Polysorb is prescribed 2-3 g of powder diluted in 100 ml of chilled boiled water for adults, and 1 g of the product for children.

The exact dosage must be prescribed by a doctor. For severe intoxication, Polysorb solution is prescribed up to 5-6 times a day; for moderate and mild intoxication, 3 times a day is sufficient.

A pronounced therapeutic effect can be seen within a day after the start of use. In most cases, the course of treatment for acute intoxication lasts no more than 10 days; in the treatment of chronic diseases it can reach 2-3 months.

How to use

Instructions for oral use of enterosorbent:

For adults you need 1 tbsp. l. Dilute the powder in a glass of boiled water.
The medicine must be taken one hour before meals or the same time after meals.
The daily dose for an adult should not exceed more than 20 g, for a child - 200 mg per 1 kg of weight. It is recommended to divide the daily dose of the drug into 3-4 times, observing time intervals taking into account the intake of other medications and diet.
The treatment course with sorbent lasts at least a month, then a break of 2 weeks is taken.

External use of the drug:

A thin layer of dry powder is applied to the affected area of skin, and a tight gauze bandage is placed on top. The procedure must be repeated three times a day for at least 2 weeks.
Treatment in the form of applications. To prepare the sorbent mixture, it is necessary to mix the drug granules with water in equal proportions. Then, using a cotton pad, the thick mixture is applied to the sore spot and secured with a bandage.

The regimen for taking Lactofiltrum and Enterosgel for psoriasis is somewhat different from the course of treatment with Polysorb, so before starting complex therapy it is recommended to consult a specialist.

Mode of application

Polysorb is available in the form of a white powder. To use the medicine internally, an aqueous suspension is prepared. In this form, the surface of silicon dioxide conglomerates is larger, therefore the adhesive ability of the drug increases.

The dose for adults per day is 100–200 mg per kg of body weight. It is recommended not to exceed the maximum daily dose of 2000 mg. The daily dose is divided into three and four doses per day. Thus, the adhesive ability of the drug is maintained throughout the day.
For children, the daily dose is determined individually at the rate of 1/10 of body weight in grams per day. So, for children weighing up to 10 kg, the maximum daily dose is 1 g per day. For children, the dose is divided 5 times a day until symptoms subside.

The required amount of powder is mixed with water and immediately drunk. The suspension is prepared immediately before use.

When treating psoriasis, Polysorb is used in courses of 10 to 21 days with breaks of 1 or 2 months. The dose of the drug is calculated taking into account the patient’s condition and the severity of symptoms.

The average daily dose for psoriasis is 2.5–3 g per day. The dose is divided evenly into parts for three times a day.

There is also a way to take Polysorb to get rid of psoriatic plaques. To do this, pour the required amount of powder onto the affected areas of the skin and cover with a wet bandage. This compress is kept for 10–15 minutes.

When applied cutaneously, enterosorbent has a bactericidal effect, which has a beneficial effect on the regeneration processes of skin cells and prevents the addition of a secondary infection. This action does not consist of destroying bacteria or releasing bacterial poisons and antibiotics. The drug simply has a large surface area, and it absorbs bacteria and all organic and inorganic molecules, working in the liquid phase at the media interface.

In case of a severe allergic reaction, an aqueous suspension of Polysorb is used for direct administration into the intestines through an enema. Such a solution is prepared at the rate of 10 g of powder per 1 liter of water.

Means {amp}gt; The effectiveness of Polysorb for psoriasis: reviews of the drug and treatment features Psoriasis is the scourge of modern society. This disease is chronic, often relapsing, and difficult to cure.

Reviews about the use of the drug

Genetic predisposition to the disease is the main factor in the occurrence of the disease, but there are other conditions for the development of psoriasis:

stressful conditions;
hormonal imbalances;
prolonged use of medications;
eating disorder;
abuse of bad habits;
working with chemicals without proper protection, etc.

Treatment

It is quite difficult to cure psoriasis, this is due to the fact that this disease has not been fully studied; many of the prerequisites for the occurrence of the disease and the reasons for its formation have yet to be determined.

Medicine has already invented a large number of drugs to treat psoriasis, but none of them can guarantee a 100% cure.

A positive result in the treatment of psoriasis largely depends on the wishes of the patient. If he follows all the instructions of the attending physician and takes prescribed medications, this will guarantee positive dynamics in the course of the disease.

More effective is complex therapy, which includes the following steps:

Taking medications.
Eating balanced, healthy foods.
Rejection of bad habits.
Carrying out physical procedures.
Systematic treatment in sanatorium-resort institutions, etc.

Treatment of psoriasis is a long-term procedure, as a result of which the disease will go into remission.

During this period, the patient is able to lead a normal lifestyle.

In this condition, the patient does not experience pain, his skin is not inflamed and does not peel off. In addition, in the areas where the disease is localized, there is no burning sensation.

This drug is a little different from most psoriasis medications. It directly affects the mechanism of development of the disease. Being a powerful enterosorbent, it cleanses the body of harmful substances, as a result of which the condition of the skin quickly returns to normal.

The pharmacological effect is achieved 5 minutes after administration of the medication. It is safe and has a minimum of side effects.

Polysorb is a domestic drug. Its main constituent substance is colloidal silicon dioxide. When it enters the intestines, it binds with harmful substances and removes them out. Digestion and absorption of Polysorb into the intestinal walls almost does not occur. This means that the intestinal wall is not affected. In addition, all these substances do not penetrate the circulatory system.

The drug has the following properties:

It removes allergens and toxins.
Polysorb attracts fluid from lymph and blood into the intestines, as a result of which harmful substances are eliminated more quickly.

The medicine is produced in the form of an odorless powder, it is white with a blue tint in paper bags of 3 g and bottles with a plastic cap of 12, 25 and 50 g.

Indications for the use of Polysorb for psoriasis

Treatment of psoriasis, which is a dermatoses, is complicated by a lack of balance between the accumulation and elimination of toxic substances from the body. The skin is a complex multifunctional system. Any toxic effect, both internal and external, can lead to pathological changes in it. To detoxify the body, the drug Polysorb is used. Main indications for use of the drug:

intoxication (acute or chronic) of both adult and child organisms, regardless of its cause;
intestinal infections caused by various microorganisms;
food poisoning;
Intestinal dysbiosis;
drug allergization;
severe intoxication during purulent-septic conditions;
acute poisoning with chemicals;
chronic or acute sensitization (various types of allergic reactions);
Complex therapy of hepatitis, pancreatic gland, renal failure (included in the treatment regimen).

Prevention of the accumulation of chemical compounds hazardous to health in people living in places with unfavorable ecology.

Advantages of Polysorb

In dermatological practice, enterosorbents are successfully used to treat atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema and other skin pathologies. A worthy representative of such drugs is Polysorb for psoriasis. This remedy is quite universal, and its use is appropriate in cases of allergic, alcohol and bacterial intoxication.

Although psoriasis is a dermatological disease, the problem should be looked at more broadly. The skin is a complex multifunctional system. Pathological changes in it occur against the background of the slightest toxic effect, which can be internal or external.

The psoriatic process is directly related to the performance of the liver. When this organ is unable to independently cleanse the blood of toxic substances, it is impossible to do without additional intake of sorbents.

Such drugs are valued for their sorption capacity.

The higher the sorption capacity, the amount of substance that a sorbent can absorb per unit of its mass, the more harmful substances a certain sorbent can absorb and remove from the body.

Polysorb is an active enterosorbent with antacid properties. The main active ingredient is silicon dioxide. It has a single release form in the form of a powder, from which an aqueous emulsion is prepared for internal use.

Polysorb is able to rid the body of the following harmful substances:

exotoxins (drugs, air pollutants), endotoxins (bacteria and viruses);
pathogenic bacteria;
substances that cause the formation of antibodies;
heavy metal compounds;
antigens that cause allergic reactions;
radioactive nuclides;
alcohol breakdown products.

If we compare Polysorb and Activated Carbon, the second is clearly inferior in sorption capacity. The effect of the new generation enterosorbent begins at least 2 minutes after administration. It is able to protect the mucous membranes of the digestive system as thoroughly as possible and collect all harmful substances, thereby improving the quality of its work.

Many have heard about this drug, but not everyone knows how to take Polysorb for psoriasis. If in most cases this remedy implies only internal use, then for psoriasis, as well as other dermatological diseases, external use is also recommended.

The dose of the drug is determined based on body weight per gram of powder. On average, for adults, 1 tablespoon (3 g) of Polysorb is diluted in 1 glass of water. Achieve maximum homogeneity and take orally 60 minutes before meals or, after maintaining the same time, after. The number of doses per day should be 4 times. For psoriasis, Polysorb is taken in courses of 2 weeks.

External use has 2 methods:

The areas of skin affected by psoriasis are sprinkled with a dry preparation and a sterile bandage is applied, and lightly moistened with water. In order to see the effect of therapy and positive dynamics as quickly as possible, you should change the bandage at least 3 times a day.
Applications with Polysorb. The powder is mixed with cooled boiled water in a ratio of 1:1 (tablespoon) and a uniform consistency is achieved. The suspension is applied to a bandage and applied to the psoriatic lesion for 30-40 minutes.

During treatment with sorbents, you should also pay attention to your diet. It is important that it is filled with dietary and gentle products. During this period, you should especially maintain your water balance - drink up to 2 liters of clean water.

Of course, with the help of Polysorb alone it is impossible to completely defeat psoriasis, but in complex therapy it occupies an important place.

Consequently, when sorbents remove them from the body, this has a positive effect on the clinical picture. However, despite all the seeming harmlessness of such drugs, they should be taken only after a doctor’s prescription.

Contraindications

Polysorb, for all its advantages, has a number of contraindications:

individual intolerance to silicon dioxide;
decreased peristalsis and loss of intestinal tone;
bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract;
peptic ulcer in the acute stage.

The drug is usually well tolerated by patients, but in some cases the following may occur:

allergic reactions;
digestive disorders;
constipation

And if the drug is taken for a long time, the absorption of vitamins and calcium may be impaired. Therefore, such patients are recommended to take courses of multivitamins with minerals.

conclusions

Psoriatic lesions of the skin occur in waves with noticeable periods of remission, during which it is still not possible to completely get rid of the characteristic clinical picture. It is impossible to completely overcome this disease and completely get rid of it, but the task of modern medicine is to reduce and alleviate symptoms.

If we talk about Polysorb and psoriasis, statistical data confirm that with regular use of this drug, 80% of the patients participating in the study had a significant reduction in skin rashes. Enterosorbents are not a panacea, but in combination with other therapeutic methods they are clearly beneficial for dermatological pathologies.

This medication has a wide spectrum of action. It is used in gastroenterology, dermatology, toxicology and other branches of medicine. Polysorb is used as a complex treatment. Most often, medications that affect the rate of cell division and anti-inflammatory drugs for internal and external use are prescribed simultaneously with it.

Indications for the use of Polislrb are the following diseases:

diarrhea of various types;
food poisoning;
allergies to food and medications;
toxicosis during pregnancy;
alcohol poisoning, hangover;
intoxication of various types;
intestinal dysbiosis;
intestinal infections;
infections of purulent origin;
dermatological diseases such as psoriasis, eczema, atopic dermatitis.

From numerous reviews of Polysorb for psoriasis, it is known that due to its high adsorbing ability, the drug is many times superior to Enterosgel, Polyphepan, Lactofiltrum, and Activated Carbon.

The positive side of the medicine is that it can be used by pregnant and lactating women.

When Polysorb enters the intestines, it does not cause injury to the intestinal mucosa, after which it is completely excreted from the body.

After using the drug, an almost complete disappearance of the rash is observed. The formation of new plaques stops.

The medication has some contraindications. It is better to avoid its use in the following cases:

sensitivity to the main active substance;
stomach ulcers;

After using Polysorb, the level of calcium in the blood serum may noticeably decrease. Pigmentation may be observed on the skin.

You can avoid side effects of the drug if you take it in the right doses.

Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can be prevented by taking multivitamin complexes and mineral supplements in tablet form.

Many people know this remedy, but not everyone knows that it can also be used for external purposes. This is especially true for psoriasis and other skin diseases.

There are two ways to use the drug externally:

Dry Polysorb is sprinkled onto the areas affected by psoriasis, covered with a sterile bandage and slightly moistened with water. For noticeable effectiveness, the procedure should be performed at least 3 times a day.
To prepare an application with Polysorb, the powder must be mixed with boiled water at room temperature in a 1:1 ratio. Mix until smooth. The pulp is applied to a sterile bandage and applied to the area affected by psoriasis.

The duration of the procedures is at least 40 minutes.

People with individual intolerance to silicon dioxide and children under 1 year are prohibited from taking Polysorb. Also, the reason for refusing the drug should be a stomach or small intestinal ulcer, erosion or intestinal atony. Before purchasing enterosorbent, consult your doctor.

Psoriasis concept

Psoriasis is a skin disease characterized by severe itching, peeling and redness of the epidermis. Most often, the disease affects the skin on the elbows, buttocks and knees. The cause of the skin disease is not clear; doctors agree that the impetus for the appearance of plaques on the skin can be a malfunction of the immune system, hereditary predisposition, neurological disorders, bad habits, and food allergies.

mild psoriasis affects about 3% of the skin;
moderate severity affects at least 10% of the body surface;
a severe form of the disease affects more than 10% of the epidermis of patients with psoriasis.

Psoriasis: signs and problems

Psoriasis worries patients primarily from an aesthetic point of view - red, weeping and flaky spots on the skin look unsightly, the patient leaves skin particles everywhere, infection can get into the wounds on the surface of the spots - all this is very unpleasant. Reviews of psoriasis from those who encounter patients are usually negative, so most efforts are directed toward hiding the external manifestations of the disease.

Traditionally, psoriasis is treated with various ointments, for example, Advantan and Daivobet give noticeable results: psoriasis lesions turn pale, peeling stops, and the skin looks healthy. There are quite a few disadvantages to this approach:

the disease progresses, although outwardly invisible,
addiction develops to ointments,
the ointments themselves are not harmless and have contraindications,
the cost of such treatment is very high.

Since psoriasis can affect joints, bones and nerve endings over time, without treatment the disease can easily turn a person into a disabled person. Unfortunately, there is no cure for psoriasis, but the right combination of medications, vitamins, physiotherapy and nutrition can slow down the progression of the disease and completely restore quality of life.

Brief overview of analogues

Analogues of Polysorb are other drugs aimed at cleansing the digestive tract and removing harmful substances from the body. These medications include the following:

Smecta
Enterosgel
Lactofiltrum and others.

All drugs can independently cope with psoriasis, but for greatest effectiveness they are advised to be included in complex treatment.

For example, the well-known remedy Lactofiltrum not only cleanses the gastrointestinal tract of toxic substances, but also improves the body's immune defense. Psoriasis, according to experts, appears due to improper functioning of the immune system, as a result of which pathological cells appear. Lactofiltrum will improve the functioning of the immune system and, accordingly, will help the body in the fight against the disease. The price for the analogue of Polisorb Laktofiltrum is from 180 rubles.
