Corsodil: antiseptic for the treatment and prevention of infections

Corsodil, whose international name is chlorhexidine, is an antiseptic, halogen and halogenated preparation manufactured by Smithkline Beecham in the UK. The dosage form of Corsodil is a mouth rinse solution.

Corsodil is used to treat the surgical field and surgeon's hands, treat cystitis, wound infections, gingivitis, prevent sexually transmitted diseases and sterilize surgical instruments. The active substance of the drug is chlorhexidine. This component acts on bacteria and fungi, destroying their cell walls and disrupting their life processes.

At the same time, Corsodil has a number of contraindications. The drug is not recommended for use by people with hypersensitivity to the active substance, as well as with dermatitis and allergic reactions. The combined use of Corsodil with iodine preparations is also not recommended.

When using Corsodil, some side effects may occur, such as dry and itchy skin, dermatitis, sticky hands for 3-5 minutes, staining of teeth, tartar deposits and taste disturbances (in the treatment of gingivitis).

There are no data on the interaction of Corsodil with other drugs, and there is no information on overdose and special instructions.

In conclusion, it can be noted that Corsodil is an effective antiseptic for the treatment and prevention of infections. However, like any medical product, it must be used only as prescribed by a doctor and in compliance with all instructions for use.
