Vitamins are essential for any living organism. If trace elements are not enough, the body will malfunction. All systems will cease to function smoothly. This is especially bad for the central nervous system. To prevent this, doctors advise their patients to take special complexes. One of these include vitamins Kombilipen.
Features of vitamins Combilipen
The drug is released in the form of a solution that is injected through the muscle. The composition contains vitamins of group B, which provide nutrition of nerve cells with glucose, normalize metabolism, processes of excitation and inhibition, and participate in the synthesis of catecholamines. There is an increase in the ability of tissues to heal and regenerate.
Kombilipen is considered a combined drug that belongs to the category of neurotropes. The components included in the composition have a beneficial effect on the body during the development of inflammatory and degenerative diseases of the nervous system and musculoskeletal system.
The medicine is injected into the muscle. 1 pack contains 5 ampoules. To complete the full course, you need to purchase 3 packs of ampoules.
What vitamins are included in Kombilipen
Kombilipen contains a group of B vitamins:
- Thiamine... Normalizes the work of nerve cells, feeds them with glucose.
- Pyridoxine... Takes part in the metabolic processes of the central nervous system. The action of the vitamin is aimed at normalizing the transmission of nerve impulses, excitation and inhibition. Synthesizes catecholamine and transports sphingosine.
- Cyanocobalamin... Participates in the production of choline and hematopoiesis, the synthesis of nucleic acids, folic acid, myelin. Promotes tissue regeneration.
In addition, the drug contains lidocaine. It has an analgesic effect. Expands blood vessels, due to which vitamins are better absorbed. The local anesthetic effect of lidocaine is based on the blockade of potentially dependent sodium channels. Thanks to this, the process of generating impulses is prevented and the elimination of pain syndrome.
Why are injections of vitamins Kombilipen prescribed?
Vitamins in Kombilipen injections are prescribed to patients with the following phenomena:
- trigeminal neuralgia;
- inflammation of the facial nerve;
- polyneuropathy of various origins.
The drug is effective in the appearance of pain syndrome against the background of intercostal neuralgia, lumbar and cervical, cervico-shoulder, radicular syndrome, pathological changes in the spine.
Instructions for vitamins Combilipen
Kombilipen vitamins are administered intramuscularly. If the patient feels severe pain, then the injections are given within 5-7 days. The dosage is 2 ml. After the disappearance of acute symptoms, the solution is injected into the muscle every other day. The treatment continues for 14 days.
If there is a mild form of the disease, then the procedure is carried out 2-3 times a week. In this case, the treatment lasts no more than 10 days.
Precautions
Before starting treatment, you need to consult a doctor. If the patient is being treated with Kombilipen, then it is recommended to exclude working with complex mechanisms and driving a car. The lidocaine included in the composition affects concentration.
Kombilipen contains vitamins incompatible with some substances. One of these is thiamine. It cannot be combined with sulfites, mercuric chloride, iodide, carbonate, acetate, tannin acid, phenobarbital, riboflavin, penicillin, dextrose. In addition, copper leads to the destruction of vitamin B1.
Thiamine loses its effect above pH 3.
Pyridoxine does not combine well with some substances in the form of levodopa, cycloserine, penicillamine, isoniazid.
Cyanocobalamin should not be taken simultaneously with heavy metal salts. Riboflavin has a destructive effect on vitamin B2. Nicotinamide leads to accelerated photolysis. Antioxidants have an inhibitory effect on cyanocobalamin.
Contraindications and side effects
Kombilipen vitamins are not prescribed to all patients, since the drug has a number of contraindications in the form of:
- decompensated heart failure in severe or acute form;
