Insights
Myramistin inhalation solution effectively treats acute respiratory diseases in children by reducing inflammation and improving recovery. Nebulized Myramistin solution demonstrated superior therapeutic benefits compared to Myramistin spray.
Area of Science:
- Pediatric Respiratory Medicine
- Pharmacology
- Clinical Research
Background:
- Acute respiratory diseases are common in children.
- Effective treatment options are crucial for pediatric respiratory health.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the efficacy of Myramistin solution for inhalation in treating children with acute respiratory diseases.
- To compare the effectiveness of nebulized Myramistin solution versus Myramistin spray.
Main Methods:
- A study involving 60 children aged 2-17 with acute respiratory diseases.
- Forty children received Myramistin solution via nebulizer; 20 children (control group) received Myramistin spray.
- Clinical observations and special investigations were conducted.
Main Results:
- Myramistin inhalation solution showed beneficial effects on clinical symptoms and peripheral blood characteristics.
- Treatment accelerated patient recovery, attributed to anti-inflammatory and trophic actions.
- Nebulized Myramistin solution was significantly more effective than Myramistin spray.
Conclusions:
- Myramistin inhalation solution is an effective treatment for pediatric acute respiratory diseases.
- The study supports the development of optimal Myramistin inhalation technologies for respiratory tract infections.
- Nebulized administration of Myramistin solution offers superior therapeutic outcomes.
Unlabelled:
This paper reports the results of the clinical observations and special investigations carried out with the involvement of the children presenting with acute respiratory diseases treated with the use of a Myramistin solution for inhalation.
Material And Methods:
The study included a total of 60 children with the above condition at the age varying between 2 and 17 years. Forty patients inhaled the Myramistin solution through a face mask connected to the nebulizer. The remaining 20 children that comprised the control group inhaled Myramistin in the form of a spray.
Results:
The study has demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method that produced beneficial effect on the clinical symptoms of the respiratory diseases and characteristics of peripheral blood. Moreover, it accelerated the recovery of the patients due to the anti-inflammatory and trophic action of the inhaled solution and promoted normalization of mucociliary clearance. The therapeutic effectiveness of the Myramistin spray was significantly lower than that of the solution.
Conclusion:
The results of the study provided a basis for the development of the optimal technologies for the application of the Myramistin inhalation solution to the treatment of the children presenting with acute respiratory diseases of the upper and lower parts of the respiratory tract.

Upper Respiratory Drugs: Antitussives, Expectorants, and Mucolytics
Antitussives include codeine, dextromethorphan (Robitussin), and benzonatate (Tessalon). Codeine and dextromethorphan exert their effects centrally by suppressing the cough reflex center in the medulla. Benzonatate operates peripherally within the respiratory tract by...
