Contents of packaging
4 ml in polymer container, 10 or 60 containers in a cardboard package.
Description
OKISTAR Hyal 7% is a sterile solution for inhalation administration facilitating breathing by liquefying the secretion and improving its discharge from the mucous membrane of the lower respiratory tract in patients with inflammatory respiratory diseases due to osmotic effect.
Mechanism of action
7% sodium chloride solution facilitates breathing due to the osmotic effect, helps to liquefy the secretion of the bronchial mucosa and to discharge it.
Hyaluronic acid is a natural component (polysaccharide) that performs a number of important biological functions in the body. Due to the hydrophilic properties of its molecule, hyaluronic acid provides a high degree of hydration in the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract, which in a combination with sodium chloride solution promotes moisturizing, creates conditions for improving mucociliary clearance. Furthermore, due to the high degree of the hyaluronic acid molecule hydration, a barrier is formed on the surface of the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract preventing the adhesion (sticking) of antigens (viruses, bacteria, allergens).
Inclusion of hyaluronic acid into the hypertonic saline solution reduces the occurrence of adverse reactions and improves the medical device tolerability while usage.
Intended purpose
OKISTAR Hyal 7% is indicated to facilitate the mobilisation of the viscous secretions in the airways.
Indications
