Polysorb MP powder 25 g ➤ instructions for use

Drinking even small doses of alcohol can cause hangover symptoms. They are familiar to every person who has drunk alcohol at least once in his life. Dry mouth, headache, dizziness, apathy, general loss of strength - these are only a small part of the symptoms indicating the development of acute alcohol intoxication. The severity of hangover symptoms depends on how much alcohol was drunk, its quality, body characteristics and other factors.

You can eliminate the general symptoms of a hangover, improve your well-being, and literally bring a person back to life with the help of the high-quality drug Polysorb. Polysorb is a drug related to energy sorbents. Contains highly dispersed silica. Produced in Ukraine under the trademarks Atoxil and Silix. It is well tolerated and compatible with alcohol. It should be used only after carefully reading the instructions.

Small particles are capable of sorbing various substances. Their specific external surface is 300 sq.m/g. Colloidal particles are amorphous because their formula does not have a crystalline base.

The sorbent is produced in the form of a white powder for preparing a suspension. Then you need to drink it. When the powder is mixed with water, a white colloidal solution is formed. Polysorb is available in the form of a sachet with a capacity of 1 - 3 g or a jar with 12 - 50 g of powder.

All sorbents have high antitoxic ability. It has been clinically established that in acute alcohol poisoning, it is Polysorb that has the most pronounced antitoxic effect. It should be borne in mind that the sorbent does not act on alcohol, but on toxic substances formed during the breakdown of ethanol.

Mechanism of action of Polysorb

As soon as a person drinks alcohol, the liver begins to process it. It is in the largest gland in our body that the breakdown of alcohol into acetaldehyde occurs. This is an extremely toxic substance, on which the development of hangover syndrome depends. Under normal conditions, acetaldehyde undergoes a process of splitting into water and carbon dioxide. But with frequent drinking or drinking a large amount of alcohol, the liver cannot cope with detoxification, and acetaldehyde begins to accumulate in the body.

Taking Polysorb accelerates the elimination of toxins that are formed as a result of ethanol metabolism. If you drink the sorbent immediately before a feast, its microscopic particles will prevent ethanol from entering the bloodstream. The person will not get very drunk. When it enters the digestive tract, Polysorb increases the viscosity of liquids, which changes the consistency of intestinal contents. The resulting liquid with a new composition gently envelops the walls of the digestive tract.

Polysorb is able to remove the following toxins from the body:

• alcohol, including its metabolic products and derivatives;
• food allergens;
• toxins produced by bacteria and viruses;
• certain types of microorganisms;
• medicines;
• toxins, poisons;
• salts of heavy metals;
• radionuclides;
• some metabolic products, for example, bilirubin, cholesterol, nitrogenous compounds, etc.

This drug works softer and more effectively than activated carbon. It does not enter the bloodstream and leaves the body unchanged. Its most important tasks are the absorption and removal of poisons from the body.

Polysorb dosage

The dosage regimen is determined by the doctor based on the severity of the patient’s condition. Usually the powder is prescribed for:

• severe intoxication in purulent and septic diseases;
• poisoning with alcohol and its surrogates;
• food infections;
• acute intestinal infections;
• poisoning with drugs, potent substances, salts of heavy metals, radionuclides, medicinal plants and mushrooms;
• nonspecific diarrhea.
• hepatitis of various natures.

The average daily dose for an adult is calculated based on his weight. The optimal dosage is 0.2 g per 1 kilogram of body weight per day, but not more than 20 g. It is necessary to take the sorbent 3 - 4 times a day, at regular intervals.

Taking Polysorb during alcohol intoxication

Acute poisoning with ethyl alcohol can often lead to death. Poisoning with methyl and other alcohols, which are part of counterfeit alcoholic drinks, is especially dangerous. Ingestion of 10 ml of methanol leads to severe poisoning, one of the consequences of which is blindness. Taking enterosorbents allows you to achieve the following effects:

• binding of alcohols in the stomach and intestines;
• normalization of glutathione levels;
• restoration of biological blood parameters;
• preventing the primary absorption of alcoholic beverages;
• decrease in the concentration of ethyl alcohol in the blood;
• preventing the circulation of breakdown products of ethyl alcohol in the body;
• significant reduction in the half-life of alcohol (about 2 times).

Taking Polysorb improves tolerance to alcoholic beverages. In humans, the severity of symptoms of ethanol poisoning decreases. Modern use of Polysorb helps prevent deterioration of the body's condition.

In case of alcohol poisoning, the suspension is used according to the following scheme: before drinking alcohol, during libation and in the morning, after the holiday.

The inclusion of Polysorb in the complex therapy of alcohol poisoning helps to reduce the duration of alcoholic coma, improve the dynamics of restoration of cardiac and vascular functions, and reduce the length of stay of patients in a hospital.

In the case of chronic alcohol intoxication, the combination of the basic treatment regimen with Polysorb helps to reduce the hospital stay of patients, reduce the number of intravenous and infusion drugs administered, and improve the dynamics of restoration of heart and kidney functions.

Symptoms

The incubation period ranges from several hours to three days. Some time after infection, the patient begins to feel weak, nauseated, and the temperature rises. Then vomiting begins, it can be either single or multiple. In children, the symptoms are more pronounced and they suffer more severely from the disease. Then abdominal pain begins, which is accompanied by stool disturbances: at first it becomes mushy, then develops into diarrhea. After a few hours, the patient feels dry mouth - this is the first sign of dehydration. The patient loses weight, this is especially pronounced in children under one year old. Dehydration causes dry, cracked lips and sunken eyes. If the patient does not urinate after 6 hours, then this is a dangerous symptom of dehydration. If a child suffers a severe illness, it is best to hospitalize him. In a hospital setting, there are more opportunities to bring the child out of this state: droppers are used to eliminate dehydration.

Features of the use of Polysorb for hangover and withdrawal syndrome

Any case of alcohol abuse ends in a hangover, or post-intoxication syndrome. In the mechanism of development of this syndrome, the breakdown products of ethyl alcohol play a crucial role. The most toxic of them is acetaldehyde. During the further breakdown of this substance, free radicals are released, which further aggravate the patient's condition.

Against the background of intoxication, a person’s functioning of all internal organs is disrupted. Polysorb effectively removes alcohol breakdown products. Due to its biochemical properties, the drug binds toxins that are released into the blood against the background of impaired liver and kidney function.

In case of a hangover, Polysorb does not act on alcohol, but on the products that are formed during its breakdown. According to the instructions for use of this product, the suspension should be taken no later than 6 hours after finishing drinking alcohol. Or do this on the eve of a violent libation.

In case of acute alcohol poisoning due to a hangover, Polysorb actively removes toxins and eliminates the following symptoms:

• pronounced surges in blood pressure;
• headache;
• trembling of limbs;
• lethargy;
• weakness;
• sweating;
• swelling, especially noticeable on the face;
• thirsty;
• bowel disorders;
• neuropsychiatric disorders.

If you drink too much alcohol, the liver cannot process ethanol. Drinking the drug significantly alleviates the human condition and promotes faster normalization of body functions. Consuming Polysorb immediately after a stormy feast does not have a pronounced effect: small colloidal particles act in the intestines, and toxins have time to penetrate the blood. But even in this case, the medicine helps the liver function

Polysorb effectively relieves symptoms of withdrawal syndrome when stopping alcohol consumption. This promotes faster recovery of the body. However, the drug is not able to remove acetaldehyde and acetic acid from the blood - substances formed during the breakdown of alcohol.

For a hangover, the standard dose for an adult is 2 tablespoons of powder dissolved in 150 liters of water. The action begins within half an hour after oral administration.

For alcoholism, Polysorb should be taken 3–4 times a day for 5–10 days or until the patient’s condition is relatively normal. All this time, it is recommended to drink more fluid, because a significant amount of it is spent on maintaining the activity of the microparticles of the drug.

HOW AND HOW MUCH TO TAKE?

• Firstly, Polysorb is always taken in the form of an aqueous suspension , that is, the powder is mixed with 14 - 12 glasses of water , and is never taken dry orally.
• Secondly, the amount of powder to take depends on body weight , that is, you need to know the approximate weight of the adult or child who will drink it. There cannot be an overdose, which eliminates concerns when determining the dose.

Table for calculating the daily dose of Polysorb MP depending on the patient’s body weight:

1 heaped teaspoon of Polysorb MP contains 1 gram of the drug. 1 gram is the most recommended single dose for children. 1 heaped tablespoon of Polysorb MP contains 2.5-3 grams of the drug. 3 grams is the average single adult dosage.

Method of use of Polysorb MP for main indications

There is no confirmed data, but theoretically allergic reactions are possible. Constipation rarely occurs; to prevent it, you should drink more water. Long-term use (more than 14 days) may impair the absorption of vitamins and calcium, which can be corrected by taking multivitamins and calcium. Interaction with medications and microelements and vitamins from food: to eliminate the possibility of reducing the therapeutic effect of simultaneously taken medications and food, Polysorb MP is drunk either 1 hour before taking medications or 2 hours after meals.

CONTRAINDICATIONS:

• Peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum in the acute phase;
• Bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract;
• Intestinal atony;
• Individual intolerance to the drug.

Side effects from taking Polysorb

In most cases, the drug is well tolerated by patients. In some cases, the following side effects may occur:

• constipation (its risk occurs with atony of the digestive tract);
• acute allergic reaction in the form of rash, swelling, itching of the skin and mucous membranes;
• dyspeptic symptoms (most often manifested in the form of nausea, discomfort, or pain in the upper parts of the digestive tract, early satiety with food, flatulence, a feeling of constant fullness in the stomach when eating even a small amount of food;
• constant unpleasant taste in the mouth.

Polysorb has a non-selective effect. This means that it removes from the digestive tract not only poisons, but also substances necessary for the body. Therefore, doctors do not recommend long-term use of this drug (for more than two weeks in a row). Otherwise, the absorption of microelements, vitamins, and essential nutrients is impaired. If further use of Polysorb is necessary, patients will be prescribed supplements containing vitamins and microelements.

Compatibility of Polysorb with other drugs

Most drugs in the enterosorbent group reduce the effectiveness of any drug if taken simultaneously. Polysorb and its analogs are capable of adsorbing inorganic compounds. To avoid this interaction, it is recommended to use Polysorb one and a half to two hours before or after taking the main medications. If treated in a hospital, the responsibilities of medical personnel include monitoring the patient’s correct intake of Polysorb and other medications. Usually, in a clinical setting, errors with taking sorbents and other medications are completely excluded.

Polysorb is an effective and safe remedy for the treatment of hangover syndrome. It is a first aid drug for alcohol intoxication: headache, hand tremors, facial swelling, thirst, irritability. However, you should not use it often, because in this case useful substances are removed from the body. If it is necessary to use Polysorb for a long time, then it is necessary to additionally prescribe vitamin and mineral complexes. They will help restore water and electrolyte balance in the body and prevent the development of chronic pathologies of the digestive tract.

But treating alcoholism with Polysorb alone is inappropriate. This is only a symptomatic remedy that temporarily relieves the symptoms of excessive alcohol consumption. If a patient suffers from alcoholism, then he needs specialized treatment.
