Modern pharmacies are filled with a wide variety of synthetic medicines, but patients nonetheless prefer to use natural herbal preparations. Sinupret dragee is a medicine created on the basis of medicinal herbs and having an easy-to-use form, which is effectively used in the treatment of inflammation of the sinuses.

The composition of the herbal preparation

Sinupret is available in two dosage forms - drops and dragees, but if it is not always convenient to bury the nose, then dragees are always comfortable to use. They look like round biconvex tablets of green color and are easy to swallow. Inside, if you break a tablet, you can see three multi-colored layers: light brown, white and green.

The composition of one dragee includes 6 mg of gentian extract (extracted from the root) and 18 mg each:

  • primrose flowers;
  • sorrel;
  • elderberry flowers;
  • verbena stems.

Gelatin, lactose monohydrate, starch, sorbitol and stearic acid are used as auxiliary substances in the manufacture of Sinupret. For the shell, completely harmless substances are used - glucose, sucrose, talc and titanium dioxide. The high therapeutic effect of Sinupret is explained by the complex effect of herbal remedies. Regular use of dragees leads to cleansing of the sinuses and restoration of their work.

What helps Sinupret tablets?

Sinupret is used when filling the sinuses with exudate.

This happens with sinusitis, rhinitis and sinusitis, which are accompanied by constant and excessive secretion.

The drug has secretolic and secretomotor actions that provide cleansing of the mucous sinuses of the nose. In addition, Sinupret stops the growth of bacteria in the nasopharynx and inflammatory processes, which leads to the restoration of the respiratory system. Due to its complex effect, the amount of exudate in the upper respiratory tract decreases, as does the risk of pathological complications.

Each component of the medication has its own therapeutic effect:

  1. Verbena - speeds up metabolism and positively affects the liver. It has a tonic and analgesic effect, dilutes the secret and stops inflammation.
  2. Primrose - has a calming effect and expectorant, which normalizes the state of the respiratory tract.
  3. Sorrel is an excellent anti-allergic agent that accelerates the regeneration of affected tissues (heals wounds and stops nosebleeds).
  4. Elderberry - helps to reduce swelling of the nose and does not allow pus to form in the nasal cavity.
  5. Gentian extract - stimulates the production of bile and secretion, which speeds up the process of removing bacteria and toxins from the body.

Thanks to this useful composition of the dragee, Sinupret helps cleanse the nasal sinuses from secretion, reduces swelling of the nose and strengthens the patient's immunity. The medication is actively used to treat diseases of an infectious nature in the upper respiratory tract.

Instructions for use for children and adults

Sinupret is administered orally, swallowing with plenty of water. Due to the smooth surface, the tablets slip into the digestive tract without causing discomfort to the person, and are absorbed into the bloodstream.

Using it is simple:

  1. Adults drink one tablet 2 times a day.
  2. Children from 6 to 17 years old drink 1 tablet three times a day.

Sinupret dragees for children can be taken from 2 years old, but in view of the possible difficulties with swallowing, children are recommended to give Sinupret drops up to 6 years. Doctors prescribe to drink Sinupret for 7-14 days, depending on the received therapeutic effect.

The use of dragees is possible only by decision of the attending physician and in view of urgent need. Despite the natural composition, a possible harmful effect on the developing children's organism cannot be completely ruled out.
