How Does it Work
Misoprostol 0.0024% / Phenytoin 2% / Beta Glucan 0.5% Topical Gel is an effective treatment for non-infected wounds or burns. This formulation combines three different active ingredients to promote wound healing. Misoprostol belongs to the class of medications called prostaglandins and is used to reduce inflammation and stimulate wound healing. Phenytoin belongs to the class of medications called anticonvulsants and is an effective analgesic which reduces pain and discomfort at the wound site. Finally, Beta Glucan is a polysaccharide derived from mushrooms and yeast and is known to help with collagen formation and wound closure.
When these three ingredients are combined together in a topical gel, they have a synergistic effect, promoting wound healing and relieving pain at the wound site. The topical gel is applied directly to the wounded area and slowly absorbed in the skin, providing relief of symptoms while aiding the healing process. This gel is a safe, effective treatment for non-infected wounds and burns.
Other Uses
Misoprostol 0.0024% / Phenytoin 2% / Beta Glucan 0.5% Topical Gel may also be useful in treating other conditions that can benefit from an anti-inflammatory effect, as well as the protective and regenerative effects of the Beta Glucan. Such conditions may include skin ulcers, minor abrasions, perianal and perirectal abscesses, acne, and dermatitis. The formulation could also be used to facilitate healing of minor wounds, such as post-surgical incisions, and to protect against further damage from the surrounding environment. Lastly, due to its anti-bacterial properties, the formulation may be employed to help prevent infection in vulnerable areas, such as pressure sores.
