What is so special about enterofurile compared with all known such drugs as furazolidone Furazolidone - contributes to the death of bacteria   and furazolin? On pathogens of intestinal infections it acts in the same way as those of the preparations, but a significant difference is that this drug has no side effects as it is not absorbed in the intestine and does not have a general effect on the organism. That is why today we are seeing a resurgence of interest in drugs nitrofuran series.

How does Enterofuril

Enterofuril (active substance - nifuroxazide) in small doses suppress the livelihoods sensitive to it pathogens intestinal infections, and in the higher bactericidal (kills bacteria) effect. The mechanism of action of this drug is associated with the inhibition of redox reactions in the cells of the bacteria that lead to substantial disruption of biochemical processes.

Sensitivity to enterofurilu show the majority of pathogens that cause intestinal infections: is E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Proteus, Klebsiella and others. The infectious agents can not adapt to this drug and to lose him sensitive as to some antibiotics. And this feature makes Enterofuril drug of choice for a variety of intestinal infections. In severe cases, it is administered together with antibiotics, thereby reducing the dose and duration of the last destination.

Actively suppressing the activity of pathogenic microflora Enterofuril no negative impact on the normal intestinal flora that helps the human body to digest food, produces a range of vitamins and helps to cleanse the bowel Colon Cleansing - How to put an enema? . This is very important since intestinal infections often have consequences such as dysbiosis - a result of the use of antibiotics. In applying Enterofuril goiter usually does not develop.

Once in the intestinal lumen, Enterofuril hardly absorbed into the blood and act effectively locally only in the intestine, where subsequently excreted in the faeces. How quickly will indicate Enterofuril from the intestine it depends on the dose and motor activity (motility) of the intestine.

Which diseases prescribed

Enterofuril prescribed for intestinal infections, pathogens which are sensitive to the drug. And since most of the show such sensitivity of pathogens that cause intestinal infections, it is administered immediately before the data acquisition of laboratory tests of feces. Enterofuril help with salmonellosis Salmonellosis - features of the disease , Bacillary dysentery, an intestinal infection caused by pathogenic strains of E. coli, Staphylococcus and so on.

If the patient's condition serious, then both prescribed and antibiotics. In addition, the intestinal infection is dangerous dehydration, so the use of antimicrobials should be combined with the intake of adequate amounts of fluid and salts. If you are not a very serious condition of the patient, such solutions are taken orally, but if the patient worried about uncontrollable vomiting, water and saline solutions are administered intravenously.

Apply Enterofuril Enterofuril - help with the intestinal infection   and the treatment of chronic infectious and inflammatory bowel bacterial origin - chronic enteritis and enterocolitis.

But if these processes are combined with worm infestation and largely it is supported, Enterofuril fails, the treatment will need to attach other drugs including anthelminthic action.

Side effects and contraindications

Enterofuril hardly absorbed in the intestine and has no general validity. Intestine nor does it irritate - it has been found in laboratory tests. Therefore, the side effects of this drug have not, except, of course, allergic reactions, which is enough to generate revenues in the blood, even a small amount of some substance.

Enterofuril blends well with drugs, so it can be administered as part of a treatment. You can not eat during treatment enterofurilom Spirits - Enterofuril cause allergy in relation to alcohol, which can be the result of heavy response of the body.

Contraindications reception Enterofuril are hypersensitive to this drug by the body of the patient and the age of one month. Especially cautiously prescribed Enterofuril premature babies.

Enterofuril - a modern drug for the treatment of intestinal infections.

Esophagitis leads to pain in swallowing and chest pain. Simply put, esophagitis - any inflammation, irritation, or swelling of the esophagus. If esophagitis is not treated, it can lead to ulcers and, in rare cases, can cause cancer of the esophagus Esophageal cancer: look for the cause in the diet .

Reflux esophagitis also known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It is a disorder in which the stomach contents, food or liquid falls back into the esophagus. This leads to irritation of the esophagus, leading to heartburn and other associated symptoms.

How is reflux esophagitis

• Eaten food enters the stomach through the esophagus.
• When food enters the stomach, a ring of muscle fibers prevents reverse movement of food into the esophagus.
• The food, liquid, or gastric juice can fall back if the ring of muscle (sphincter) is closed tightly.

This so-called reflux or gastro-esophageal reflux disease, which damages the esophagus.

Causes of reflux oesophagitis

• Adiposity
• Cigarettes
• Spicy food
• Alcohol
• Pregnancy can also cause reflux esophagitis
• Medications such as bronchodilators for asthma, calcium channel blockers for high blood pressure and others can cause this disorder

Symptoms of reflux oesophagitis

• Heartburn or a burning pain in the chest Chest pain is one symptom - a lot of diseases   (under the breastbone)
• Sensation as if food is stuck in the chest
• Heartburn, which is worse when bending and supine position

• X-rays
• Measuring the level of acidity of the esophagus
• Esophagogastroduodenoscopy
• Esophageal motility study
• The treatment of reflux oesophagitis
• Antacids
• Prescription medications that reduce the acidity
• Antireflux surgery for patients suffering from serious symptoms persist
• Recommendations for lifestyle at reflux esophagitis

It should be deleted

• Alcohol
• Caffeine

• Eat frequent, small meals
• Sleep in a position where his head was at least 15 centimeters above the body
• Lose weight

Eosinophilic Esophagitis - an inflammatory disease in which the walls of the esophagus are filled with a large number of eosinophils (a type of white blood cell). This disorder is often mistaken for GERD because their symptoms are similar. Eosinophilic esophagitis is classified as a disease of the blood and is supposed to be caused by food allergies. It is more common in men, but women too, sometimes.

Usually no eosinophils in the esophagus. Eosinophils attack the mucous membrane and damage it. After some time, the inflammation can cause the closure of the esophagus.

Symptoms of eosinophilic esophagitis

Eosinophils are gathered in the esophagus, causing problems throughout the digestive tract. This in turn makes the functions of normal food intake and digestion difficult and painful. Common symptoms include nausea, chest pain and difficulty swallowing, cramping and abdominal pain. Normally, all this leads to diarrhea and weight loss.

Diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis

• Endoscopy and biopsy of the esophagus
• Radioallergosorbent test - blood test for specific IgE
• Skin prick tests

For the treatment of eosinophilic esophagitis prescribe steroids. It should also exclude certain types of foods that cause an allergic reaction.
