PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacodynamics
Nistafur is an antimicrobial agent for local use. It possesses antiprotozoal, antifungal, and antibacterial activity.
Nifuratel is a nitrofuran derivative. It is highly active against a wide range of bacteria, fungi, and protozoa (including Trichomonas vaginalis). Extensive clinical experience has confirmed its safety and efficacy in the treatment of trichomoniasis, bacterial vaginosis, and candidiasis, especially in patients with mixed vaginal infections.
Nystatin is a polyene antifungal antibiotic. By binding to sterols in the fungal cell membrane, it alters membrane permeability, leading to cell death. It is highly active against Candida albicans. Due to its low toxicity and high selectivity, the product does not cause vaginal dysbiosis.
The combination of nifuratel and nystatin provides enhanced antifungal activity and significantly broadens the antimicrobial spectrum.
The high efficacy and low toxicity of the components allow for broad clinical use in the treatment of vaginitis of mixed etiology and for the prevention of mycoses associated with specific treatment of trichomoniasis.
Nistafur does not disrupt the physiological vaginal flora, thereby preventing dysbiosis and promoting rapid restoration of normal vaginal microbiota.
