Instructions for medical use of the drug

Description of pharmacological action

Active against gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms (including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Proteus spp., Staphylococcus spp., Klebsiella spp.), fungi of the genus Candida (including Candida albicans) and dermatophytes. Upon contact with wound exudates, silver sulfadiazine slowly dissociates with the release of silver and sulfanilamide ions, the concentrations of which are sufficient to suppress the growth of pathogenic microorganisms and at the same time do not have a damaging effect on tissue cells. About 10% of sulfadiazine and 1% of silver are absorbed into the peripheral and systemic circulation. Application to large wound surfaces is accompanied by an increase in the concentration of sulfadiazine in the blood to 10–20 mcg/ml.

Indications for use

Infected superficial wounds and burns with weak exudation, trophic ulcers, bedsores, long-term non-healing ulcers (including stump wounds), abrasions, skin grafts.

Release form

ointment for external use; polyethylene bottle (bottle) 30 g cardboard pack 1; ointment for external use; polyethylene bottle (bottle) 200 g cardboard pack 1;

Pharmacodynamics

The combined drug has wound-healing and antiseptic properties. The active components are human epidermal growth factor (HEF) and silver sulfadiazine. EGF is a peptide containing 53 amino acids, obtained on the basis of recombinant DNA technology using a genetically modified yeast strain. Stimulates cell proliferation, accelerates epithelization of wounds (promotes the formation of a high-quality granulation zone). Silver sulfadiazine has an antimicrobial effect.

Pharmacokinetics

When the drug is applied to intact skin and burn wound surfaces, no resorption of EGF from the site of application into the systemic circulation is observed.

Use during pregnancy

Ebermin has not been sufficiently studied regarding the effects on the fetus or infants, therefore its use is not recommended during pregnancy and lactation. If a pregnant or breastfeeding woman has a lesion that can be treated with Ebermin, the doctor must determine the risk-benefit ratio and decide on its use.

Contraindications for use

Hypersensitivity to sulfonamides, pregnancy, lactation, children (up to 1 year). With caution. Liver and/or renal failure, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.

Side effects

Allergic reactions.

Directions for use and doses

Ebermin can be used at all stages of the wound process. Beforehand, standard surgical treatment of the wound is carried out using antiseptic solutions in case of infection. After drying, a layer of ointment of about 1-2 mm is applied to the wound surface. In the closed treatment method, sterile gauze pads or occlusive film coverings are placed on top (healing in a moist environment). In some cases, for example, with superficial shallow (I-II degree) and partially deep (III degree) burns, it is possible to use an ointment with atraumatic mesh wound coverings. With the wet healing method, as well as severe exudation, it is recommended to apply the ointment once a day. With moderate or scant exudation, the ointment can be applied once every 2 days. If the dressing sticks to the wound and to prevent unwanted drying of the wound surface, it is recommended to moisten the napkin applied over the ointment with a sterile 0.9% sodium chloride solution or antiseptic solutions. With the open (bandageless) method of treatment, the ointment is applied 1-3 times a day. Wash the wound before repeated applications of the ointment using a sterile 0.9% sodium chloride solution or antiseptic solutions. The procedure is performed carefully, avoiding injury to the resulting granulation tissue and growing epithelium when removing ointment residues. Treatment is continued until the wound is epithelialized or is ready for plastic closure with a skin flap. To prevent radiation dermatitis, a 1 mm layer of ointment is applied to the irradiated area of ​​skin without removing it from the application site for 6-8 hours after irradiation. The use of the ointment is continued daily throughout the course of radiotherapy and is not interrupted in case of forced skipping of any of the radiation procedures.

Overdose

There have been no cases of overdose.

Interactions with other drugs

Compatible with systemic administration of other drugs (including antibiotics).

Special instructions for use

Use with caution in case of congenital deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, insufficiency of liver and kidney function. With the open (bandage-free) method of treatment, direct exposure to sunlight on the area where the ointment is applied should be avoided.

Storage conditions

At a temperature of 15 to 25 °C, protected from light and out of the reach of children.

Best before date

24 months

D06BA51 Silver sulfadiazine in combination with other drugs

pharmachologic effect

The drug contains recombinant epithelial growth factor (REGF), a peptide that has a stimulating effect, accelerating the division and migration of various types of cells, including fibroblasts, keratinocytes and endothelial cells.
Under the influence of the drug, scarring and wound healing are activated; The processes of restoring the elasticity of damaged tissues are more effective.

The mechanism of action of the recombinant epithelial growth factor included in the drug is fully consistent with the mechanism of action of endogenous (synthesized in the human body) refr.

Silver sulfadiazine, which is part of the ointment, has a pronounced antibacterial effect, destroying dermatophytes, some types of yeast fungi, and pathogenic bacteria.

The ointment is created on the basis of a hydrophilic base, which protects tissues from overdrying, dehydration, and promotes long-term preservation of therapeutic concentrations of active substances in the lesion.

According to patient reviews, Ebermin ointment has a noticeable cosmetic effect, accelerating the process of synthesis in the body of collagen fibers, making the skin texture more uniform. When using the ointment, the risk of formation of keloid scars that interfere with normal joint movement (formation of contractures) is reduced.

Pharmacokinetics

The use of the drug and its application to the surface of an open wound does not lead to the entry of active substances into the systemic bloodstream.

Dosages and methods of use

Ebermin ointment is intended for local external use. Used in complex wound therapy at any stage of the wound process.

Before applying the ointment, wounds are routinely treated with antiseptic solutions to prevent infection. After treatment, the wound is dried and Ebermin is applied to its entire surface in a dense layer (1-2 mm).

Open method of therapy (without applying a bandage): the ointment is applied 1-3 times a day.

Closed method of therapy (with a bandage): the ointment is applied once a day for weeping wounds and once every 2 days with a minimal amount of exudate (discharge) or in its absence. A bandage of sterile gauze, film covering or mesh wound covering (for burn wounds) is applied over the ointment layer.

When the applied bandage dries to the surface of the wound, the bandage is moderately moistened with saline solution (sodium chloride solution) or antiseptic solution.

Before repeated applications of the ointment, the wound is treated with antiseptics - moderately, carefully, avoiding injury to the newly formed epithelial tissue.

Therapy with Ebermin ointment is carried out either until the wound is completely healed, or until it is prepared for surgical closure using a donor skin flap.

In the treatment and prevention of radiation dermatitis, Ebermin is applied as applications to the irradiated skin surface, leaving for 6-8 hours. Therapy is carried out daily throughout the course of treatment, including on days when the patient does not receive radiation therapy.

Side effects

According to reviews from patients and doctors, the use of Ebermin ointment in recommended doses does not cause unwanted side effects; the drug is well tolerated and does not have a systemic effect on the body.
