Release form
Thiotriazoline ointment is a colorless or slightly grayish homogeneous mass. The active ingredient is thiotriazoline.
The ointment is packaged in 25 g tubes and packed in a cardboard box.
Pharmacodynamics
The pharmacodynamic properties of thiotriazoline are explained by its membrane-normalizing action, blocking of fat cross-oxidation processes and stimulation of antiradical protection enzymes in the affected layers of the skin and mucous membranes. The listed reactions lead to the cessation of further development of the traumatic inflammatory process, to the acceleration of tissue healing and restoration, to the shortening of the period of post-traumatic rehabilitation.
