Aerosols from sore throats
Angina can be treated not only with the help of antibiotics, but also using topical preparations: such as sprays. Aerosol from angina has anti-inflammatory properties, and also helps to relieve pain in the throat.
Release form
With severe pain in the throat, as well as painful sensations when swallowing, you should use aerosols that have an anesthetic effect - such as Tantum Verde or Cameton. In the case of dryness in the sore throat in the larynx, Bioparox, Ingalipt or Stopangin are used. If a patient has fungal angina, Miramistin is prescribed.
Aerosol from sore throat for children
The most popular aerosols from sore throats for children are the following medicines: Ingalipt, Geksoral, Cameton, Hexaspree, and also Tantum Verde, Miramistin and Stopangin. The instructions of these drugs prescribe a ban on the use of these sprays for children under 3 years old. By the way, Hexaspray is allowed only from the age of 6.
If the sore throat is accompanied by severe pain in the throat, which does not allow the swallowing process to be carried out normally, then combined preparations should be used that give an anesthetic and disinfecting effect - it is Stopangin or Geksoral.
Aerosol from sore throat with antibiotic
Aerosols from an angina with an antibiotic are used in case of purulent or prolonged, severe angina. One such medication is Bioparox. Such sprays help to quickly eliminate the symptoms of the disease, and also prevent the development of possible complications. It should be borne in mind that this type of medication is rarely prescribed to children, and that during the treatment it is necessary to undergo a full course, without stopping the intake immediately after the acute manifestations of angina disappear.
Pharmacodynamics
The properties of aerosols from sore throats are considered on the example of Bioparox
Bioparox is an antibiotic with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.
Chemical and biological experiments have shown that the drug acts on streptococci: Streptococcus spp. Group A, as well as Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus spp. In addition, it acts on several strains of Neisseria spp., Anaerobes, Candida fungi, and Mycoplasma spp. The active substance of the drug, fusafungin, exhibits a similar effect on the human body.
Fusafungin lowers the saturation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha), and also prevents the release of free radicals by mononuclear phagocytes (while retaining the process of phagocytosis). This allows the active substance to exert an anti-inflammatory effect on the patient's body.
Pharmacokinetics
After inhalation, the active substance of the spray (fusafungin) usually gets on the mucous membrane of the nasal and oral cavity, and also the pharynx. In the blood plasma fusafungin is almost not absorbed (the concentration is extremely low and is a maximum of 1 ng / ml), so the drug is safe to use.
Use of the aerosols from sore throats during pregnancy
Aerosols from quinsy for pregnant women should meet certain requirements, among them: anti-inflammatory, disinfecting, and hypoallergenic properties. In addition, the spray should have an emollient effect, without irritating the mucous membrane.

Also, during pregnancy, it is allowed to use Bioparox, especially if the patient is on the first trimester.
