Clinical Pharmacology
Boric acid is an antiseptic, also has an insecticidal (incl. Anti-pediculosis) effect. Coagulates proteins (including enzyme) microbial cells, violates the permeability of the cell wall. 5% aqueous solution suppresses phagocytosis, 2 4% solution retards the growth and development of bacteria. It has an irritating effect on mucous membranes, granulation tissue. Absorption has systemic toxic effects.
Pharmacokinetics
It penetrates the skin and mucous membranes; slowly excreted and may accumulate in organs and tissues. Excreted by the kidneys 50% (within 12 hours), the balance within 5-7 days.
Indications
- Otitis,
- eczema (including weeping),
- dermatitis,
- pyoderma,
- intertrigo.
Composition
