Superficial mycoses and superficial bacterial skin infections.
Composition:
1 g of liquid contains 40 mg of phenol, 80 mg of resorcinol and 8 mg of boric acid.
Action:
A combined preparation that has a disinfecting, fungicidal, anti-inflammatory and exfoliating effect. Phenol has a fungicidal and bactericidal effect (on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, mycobacteria, viruses and some fungi). Boric acid is weakly bacteriostatic and fungistatic (Candida albicans, Candida krusei). Resorcinol has a weakly disinfecting and exfoliating effect, it also has a bactericidal and astringent effect. The dye (fuchsine) contained in the preparation helps to visualize the application site, it also enhances fungicidal and bactericidal activity. Boric acid does not penetrate through intact skin, it is absorbed by damaged skin, wounds and mucous membranes. The phenol is absorbed through the skin and mucous membranes, it quickly distributes to all tissues. Resorcinol is absorbed from the surface of the skin and the area of ulceration.
