Polysorb for allergies and poisoning is an effective help for children. Polysorb dosage for children

Today you can buy Polysorb under the official brand name “Polysorb MP”, but for the convenience of writing information articles, the abbreviation MP is omitted. Nevertheless, we must remember about it, since there is also “Polysorb VP” - a product for use in veterinary medicine.

Polysorb for allergies - mechanisms of action

Polysorb is good because it has the following qualities:

binds not only a variety of toxins, but also microorganisms and their waste products, as well as food allergens and foreign antigens, radionuclides, medications, poisons, heavy metal salts and alcohol;
capable of absorbing excess bilirubin, urea, cholesterol;
perfectly absorbs metabolites that cause toxicosis in pregnant women;
absorption of toxic substances occurs both in the stomach and in the small and large intestines;
the drug itself does not break down and does not penetrate the walls of the gastrointestinal tract into the blood plasma;
absorption capacity when ingested - 300 m³/g, which is much higher than other sorbents and 120 times stronger than activated carbon;
begins to act immediately after administration.

Due to its properties, polysorb is successfully used specifically for the treatment of allergies, since it not only effectively relieves symptomatic manifestations any type of intolerance, but directly eliminates the cause itself allergic disease, quickly binding and removing allergens from the body.

Synonyms, analogues and generics of Polysorb

Today, Polysorb MP has only analogues - drugs classified as sorbents, but based on a different active ingredient. These include:

powder for the preparation of colloidal suspensions - Diosmectite, Microcel, Neosmectin, Smecta, Enterodes, Enterosorb, Enterumin;
tablet forms – Laktofiltrum, Polyphepan; Filtrum-STI, Entegnin;
ready-made suspension solution – Neosmectin;
granules, paste or powder for preparing solutions - Lignosorb, Polyphepan, and Enterosorbent SUMS-1.

Let us repeat once again that Polysorb MP significantly exceeds all of the above drugs in its sorption capacity.

For your information

It is this increased absorption characteristic that causes negative reviews about polysorb. People who hold this opinion refer to the potential occurrence of dysbiosis.

The following can be answered with certainty:

Dysbacteriosis can be a consequence not only of long-term use of any type of sorbent, but also of parallel treatment with antibiotics.
The instructions for use of the drug should be strictly followed.
In the case of long-term treatment, for example, when Polysorb is used for allergies, to prevent dysbacteriosis, the doctor will definitely select and prescribe a special probiotic, prebiotic or combined agent.

Contraindications and side effects

Despite its apparent versatility, polysorb has small “disadvantages”:

some may have individual intolerance;
prohibited for use in cases of exacerbation of stomach or duodenal ulcers;
should not be taken if there is bleeding in the stomach or intestines;
very rare, but may cause constipation.

The question is often asked: Is it possible to be allergic to Polysorb itself?

No, Polysorb cannot cause an allergic reaction because it is silicon dioxide and not a histamine. Therefore, even with a deficiency of the enzyme diamine oxidase, this sorbent cannot cause allergic manifestations.

But here are some “negative reviews” you can still find on the Internet:

I do not take Polysorb because I am breastfeeding and am afraid that it will remove all the vitamins and calcium from my body.

And this review:

I use Polysorb “in my own way”, because I can’t keep in mind the regimen for taking it every day and therefore I only drink it at night.

In the first case, there is no need to worry about the occurrence of vitamin deficiency and calcium deficiency. By observing the time intervals “course of administration: rest” this can be avoided. And for greater confidence and peace of mind, you should adhere to the following recommendation - take combined vitamin-mineral complexes or dietary supplements with food.

Polysorb for allergies - rules of administration, recipes, dosages

One of the most remarkable features of Polysorb is the possibility of it being taken by children themselves. of different ages, including newborns and infants. Polysorb is indispensable for various poisonings, intestinal food infections, dysbacteriosis, all types of allergies and their manifestations.

According to what scheme is Polysorb given to children starting from 2 years of age?

Polysorb for newborns with allergies

Polysorb for newborns is used only on the recommendation of a pediatrician. In this case, it is necessary to accurately calculate the dose. To do this, you need to divide the exact weight of the child by 10. For example, 3.45 kg: 10 = 0.345 g. Then accurately, but no more and not by eye, weigh the resulting amount of powder on a jewelry scale. For children who are on breastfeeding, carefully and intensively dilute the measured portion in 30 ml of expressed mother’s milk, and for bottle-fed children, respectively, in 30 ml of liquid breast milk substitute. The number of doses per day and duration of the course for newborns is within the competence of the pediatrician.

Polysorb for babies with allergies

Polysorb is given to children under one year of age mostly sporadically - at the first signs of diathesis or digestive upset. Moms shouldn't worry. This drug, in the correct doses and in single doses, will not bind the normal flora located among the villi of the intestinal walls, but will quickly react with pathogens located in its lumen.

Polysorb for allergies for a child who is already on complementary foods can and should be diluted in his favorite compote or juice without pulp.

Polysorb for allergies in children, reviews from doctors

The effects of Polysorb have been studied for many years to substantiate its effectiveness and safety, especially for young children. Let's look at the official statistics clinical trials, which was obtained as a result of a 5-day intake by children under one year old (0.5 tsp, before meals, 2 times a day), and children over 12 months (1 tsp, before meals, 3 times a day):

In children with pronounced manifestations intoxication (diarrhea, high fever, nausea, vomiting, acetone in urine) and acute respiratory symptoms, the condition quickly improved already on the 2nd day after taking it, and on the 3rd day characteristic symptoms disappeared completely.
In all allergic children, without exception, by the 4th day, a significant decrease in allergic reactions was noted.
Treatment of urticaria with Polysorb, traditional drugs and compliance hypoallergenic diet, brought positive results already on day 5.

What is better for allergies, polysorb or other sorbents?

For the treatment and prevention of allergic manifestations, it is possible to use other sorbents: lactofiltrum, enterosgel or. Which drug is preferable?

Despite the fact that lactrofiltrum is cheaper, its use is impossible for hereditary galactosemia. In addition, the lactulose included in its composition does not allow its use for diarrhea and some other gastrointestinal disorders. Lactrofiltrum is prescribed with extreme caution to pregnant women, and for baby reception It is allowed only from the age of one.

Enterosgel sometimes causes constipation. It is prohibited for use peptic ulcer stomach. Sometimes intolerance to the drug occurs.

Well, let's compare Activated carbon and polysorb... The latter is easier to drink, because try drinking the required amount of carbon tablets, and even 3 times a day, and it can be used at absolutely any age. You wouldn't dissolve coal dust in breast milk to help a newborn or infant?

In general, reviews of Polysorb MP are extremely positive:

When the doctor prescribed Polysorb for my allergic child, I doubted whether we could drink it. My 11 one month old daughter She completed the task easily - I dissolved the powder for her in compote.

Similar drugs

The drug Polysorb MP is available in every pharmacy. Of course, you can always choose another sorbent, although if you compare Polysorb with its analogues, it is the most powerful and effective of similar drugs. Among analogues of this product for children, there are 3 main options:

Filtrum, Laktofiltrum. Their active substance is lignin - a polymer natural origin. Side effects include diarrhea or constipation, hypovitaminosis due to long-term use, and disturbances in the absorption of nutrients.
Smecta, Neosmectin. Active components are diosmectin and natural aluminum-magnesium silicate. Side effects those of Smecta are the same as those of the drug Filtrum.
Enterosgel. The active substance is polymethylsiloxane polyhydrate. When consumed, Enterosgel can cause nausea and disrupt bowel movements. The child has a severe form of renal or liver failure may cause aversion to the drug.

Polysorb can be replaced with other drugs, but they are not as effective and safe as Polysorb itself

Neither of them provides negative impact on the intestinal mucosa, so they are allowed for children. Filtrum, Laktofiltrum are allowed from the age of one, and Enterosgel, Smecta and Neosmectin are suitable even for one-month-old babies. Below is a table of doses of these drugs according to the child’s age:

In contrast, the well-known activated carbon is not recommended for giving to a child, as it injures the intestinal mucosa. In addition, along with harmful substances, it removes vitamins, fats and proteins from the body, thereby disrupting the motor-evacuation activity of the intestines.

Release forms, composition and dosages

To date, Polysorb is available in only one dosage form – powder for the preparation of suspension for oral administration . For ease of use, the powder is sold in plastic jars of 12, 25 and 50 g and in double-layer plastic bags of 3 g (single dosage for an adult). These packaging dosage options allow you to purchase the optimal amount of the drug.

Polysorb contains colloidal silicon dioxide as an active (actually sorbing) chemical substance. It does not contain any other components. Externally, Polysorb has the appearance of a powder colored White color with a slight bluish tint. There is no smell. When Polysorb is stirred in water, a white suspension forms.

Therapeutic effects and action

Polysorb is a sorbent of inorganic origin. According to its properties, the drug is not selective, that is, it is capable of sorbing various classes of substances. Due to its nonspecific activity, as well as high sorption capacity, Polysorb has the following main therapeutic effects:
1. Sorption action.
2. Detoxifying effect.

The actual detoxifying effect of Polysorb is due to its ability to bind a variety of substances, including toxins, and remove them out. That is, the basis of detoxification with Polysorb is its sorption effect.

What is Polysorb capable of binding? The sorbent binds and removes chemical substances with toxic properties that came from the outside (exogenous) and formed in the body itself (endogenous). The drug is able to effectively bind and remove the following toxins:

pathogenic microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi);
toxins released by pathogenic microorganisms;
foreign antigens;
food allergens;
medicines;
salt heavy metals;
radionuclides;
alcohol and its breakdown products.

In addition to the toxic substances listed above, Polysorb perfectly binds metabolic products formed in the human body itself. Often, an excess of these metabolic products leads to the development of unpleasant symptoms of intoxication and various diseases. So, Polysorb is capable of removing the following endogenous substances, which are metabolic products:

bilirubin;
urea;
cholesterol;
lipid complexes;
biological substances that cause the development of endotoxemia.

The versatility of its binding ability allows Polysorb to be used to eliminate intoxication of almost any origin - from poisoning to severe pathologies. This sorbent is an excellent remedy that is included in the complex therapy of a huge number of diseases in Europe and the USA. The use of Polysorb can significantly reduce the number and volume of medications needed for high-quality treatment of many diseases.

Developed countries consider it necessary to use Polysorb even for common flu or colds, since the drug effectively binds toxins and relieves painful symptoms of intoxication (muscle pain, weakness, apathy, dizziness, etc.). The experience of doctors in France has shown that the use of Polysorb in the treatment of colds, flu and acute respiratory viral infections reduces body temperature without taking antipyretic drugs, improves the subjective state, and also shortens the time required for recovery.

Indications for use

According to Russian standards and treatment protocols, indications for application of Polysorb and the following states are:

Any acute or chronic intoxication of adults or children, regardless of its cause.
Acute intestinal infections caused by various microorganisms.
Food poisoning, which is colloquially referred to as “you ate something wrong.”
Dysbacteriosis.
Purulent and inflammatory diseases that cause severe intoxication (for example, adnexitis, appendicitis, purulent wound, burn, etc.).
Acute poisoning with poisons and potent substances (for example, drugs, alcohol, salts of heavy metals, alkaloids, etc.).
Food allergies.
All types of allergies, including hay fever.
Increased concentration of bilirubin due to viral hepatitis or jaundice caused by other causes.
Increased concentration of nitrogenous products (urea, creatinine, uric acid) in chronic renal failure.
Prevention of poisoning in people working in hazardous industries or living in areas with poor environmental conditions.

In developed countries, it is also common to use Polysorb for influenza, colds or ARVI, both in adults and children. The sorbent is also successfully used in the complex therapy of various dermatoses, such as eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, acne, etc.

In principle, you can simply remember that Polysorb is suitable for relieving intoxication of any origin, so it can also be taken when various diseases, and in case of poisoning, and allergies.

Polysorb (Polysorb MP) - instructions for use

Polysorb is taken orally exclusively in the form of an aqueous suspension. To prepare it, stir the required amount of powder into 50–100 ml (1/4–1/2 cup) of water and drink quickly.

Adults take Polysorb in the amount of 100–200 mg per 1 kg of weight, which is from 6 to 12 g of powder, which is mixed in water. Adults can take the drug in a maximum daily dosage of no more than 20 g. Having calculated the daily amount of sorbent, this dosage is divided into 3 to 4 doses per day. To conveniently calculate the dosage, you need to know that a full teaspoon (“heaped”) of powder contains 1 g of the substance, and a heaped tablespoon contains 2.5–3 g. When scooping the powder into a spoon from a jar, you must do this carefully, so as not to form a cloud of dust from Polysorb.

Polysorb is always taken one hour before meals or other medications, or one and a half hours after. However, if the sorbent is taken to relieve food allergies, then it must be taken immediately before or during meals. Do not prepare a large volume of suspension and store it in the refrigerator until next appointment. It is always best to prepare the suspension immediately before use.

The duration of the course of use of Polysorb is determined by the severity of the pathology and the speed of normalization of the person’s condition. For example, for the treatment of acute intoxications (alcohol, food poisoning, flu, etc.) it is quite enough to take the sorbent for 3 to 5 days. But for the treatment of allergic pathologies (for example, dermatitis, etc.) or chronic intoxications (for example, chronic renal failure, hepatitis, etc.) it is necessary to conduct courses lasting 10 - 14 days. Moreover, such courses must be repeated every 2–3 weeks. A break between courses of sorbent use of less than 2 weeks cannot be taken.

Let's consider the rules for using Polysorb for the treatment of various diseases.

Acute poisoning or food infection (“I ate something wrong”)

First of all, it is necessary to remove the maximum amount of toxins and poisons that have entered the body. To do this, it is necessary to lavage the stomach with a Polysorb suspension at a concentration of 1–2% (1–2 g of powder per 100 ml of water). After gastric lavage, another 6 g of Polysorb is given orally after 3–4 hours. The remaining 6 g of powder is divided into several doses so that for the entire time remaining in the current day, the person receives the sorbent every 1 - 1.5 hours. Polysorb should be taken with water, tea or Regidron to replenish fluid lost as a result of diarrhea.

If poisoning or food infection is severe, then gastric lavage is repeated at intervals of 4 to 6 hours, continuing the manipulation until the person’s condition begins to improve. Along with gastric lavage, Polysorb is given orally at a dose of 2–3 g, 2–3 times a day.

On the second day after the start of treatment for poisoning or food infection, Polysorb is taken 4 times a day, 3 g. Then, depending on the person’s condition, the sorbent is canceled or the course of use is extended for another 3 to 5 days.

Acute intestinal infections

On the first day of treatment for an acute intestinal infection, Polysorb is taken 2.5-3 g (a heaping tablespoon) every hour. In total, you need to take five such doses of 2.5-3 g (heaped tablespoon). On the second day of treatment, the drug is given 3 g 4 times a day. If after two days of therapy the person’s condition has returned to normal, then Polysorb can be discontinued. If the intoxication is not completely removed, then the course of use of the sorbent is continued for another 2–3 days.

Viral hepatitis

Polysorb as part of complex therapy for viral hepatitis can reduce the duration of intoxication by 6 days, and reduce the icteric period by 12 days. Accordingly, the length of hospital stay is reduced by approximately 1 week. Polysorb is used at the very beginning of the disease for 7–10 days, 4 g 3 times a day.

Acute allergies

Drug or food allergies should be treated by washing the stomach and intestines with a 1% suspension of Polysorb. To prepare it, take 10 g of powder per 1 liter of water. The intestines are washed with an enema with a Polysorb suspension. After this procedure, it is recommended to take the sorbent for 3-5 days, 2.5-3 g (heaped tablespoon) 3-4 times a day.

Chronic food allergy

Chronic food allergies require the use of Polysorb in courses lasting 7 - 14 days, 2.5-3 g (heaped tablespoon) 3 - 4 times a day. In this case, the suspension is drunk immediately before meals. Exactly the same courses are used in the complex treatment of urticaria, Quincke's edema, eosinophilia, hay fever, atopic dermatitis and other diseases of an allergic nature.

Chronic renal failure

To relieve intoxication caused by high concentration nitrogenous products (urea, creatinine, uric acid), Polysorb is used in long courses of 25–30 days, during which 3 g are taken 3–4 times a day. For renal failure, these courses are repeated every 2 to 3 weeks.

Alcoholism and drug addiction

Polysorb for alcoholism is used to relieve alcohol withdrawal (when leaving a binge). In this case, the powder is taken 4 g 3 times a day, for 5 – 10 days.

Atherosclerosis

Treatment of developed atherosclerosis consists of a course of Polysorb 1.5 - 2.5 g 3 times a day for 1 - 1.5 months. Such courses of treatment are carried out continuously, maintaining an interval of 1 month between them.

Prevention of the development of atherosclerosis consists of using Polysorb 1.5 - 2 g 3 times a day for 1 month. These preventive courses are repeated with an interval of at least 1 month between them. It is especially important to conduct regular preventive courses for people who have high cholesterol levels in the blood.
More about atherosclerosis

Flu, ARVI, colds

Polysorb is used to treat these diseases in Europe and the USA. The fact is that toxic substances resulting from the flow of pathological process, are partially excreted into the intestinal lumen. When these toxins are bound by a sorbent, they cannot be absorbed back into the blood, thereby significantly reducing the burden on immune system. In principle, the removal and binding of toxins by Polysorb is so effective that some people do not even have to use an antipyretic for a cold, since the temperature normalizes on its own. So, Polysorb for the treatment of influenza, colds and acute respiratory viral infections is taken 2.5-3 g (a heaping tablespoon) 3 times a day, for 7 - 10 days. Moreover, for complex therapy of these diseases, it is best to use Polysorb, and not another sorbent, since it binds much more toxins (many times).

Purulent wounds, burns and ulcers

To treat these conditions, Polysorb is used externally to cleanse the wound and accelerate the healing process and restore tissue structure. To do this, during the presence of purulent and necrotic masses, Polysorb powder is poured into the wound, a sterile bandage is applied on top and it is lightly moistened with water. After 3–4 hours, the bandage is changed. Such dressings are applied until the wound is completely cleared of purulent and necrotic masses. After which you can apply bandages with Methyluracil or Levomekol ointment to the wound, which accelerate healing.

The use of Polysorb in long courses, that is, longer than 14 days, can lead to a deficiency of calcium and some vitamins, since the process of their absorption into the blood from the intestinal lumen is disrupted. In this case, it is necessary to take multivitamin preparations and calcium prophylactically or take a break between courses of up to 14 days of taking Polysorb MP for at least 2-3 weeks.

Polysorb for children - instructions for use

Polysorb can be given to children from birth. In most cases, the drug is used to treat various poisonings, food and intestinal infections, diathesis or allergy-like rashes, intestinal dysbiosis, which children suffer from very often. That is why we will consider in detail how to properly use Polysorb at home to treat these conditions in children.

If signs of intoxication develop (headache, nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, vomiting, fever, etc.), the required amount of the drug is shaken in water (half or a quarter of a glass), and the child is given a fresh suspension to drink. Polysorb is given 1 hour before meals or other medications, or 1.5 hours after. For ease of dosing of the drug, the following ratios can be used:

1 heaped teaspoon contains 1 g of powder;
1 heaped tablespoon contains 2.5 - 3 g of powder.

The dosage of Polysorb for children is calculated individually based on body weight. A simple formula is used for this: divide the child's weight by 10 . The resulting figure will show the maximum permissible single dose of Polysorb. A single dose for a child can be used 3-4 times a day.

Counting table daily dose Polysorb MP depending on the patient’s body weight

Typically, children are given Polysorb according to the following scheme. Single dosage 5 times every hour, from the second and subsequent days - single dosage give 3-4 times a day.

Polysorb for infants

Polysorb for infants is mainly used for the treatment and prevention of diathesis, as well as to eliminate digestive disorders. The drug should be used only occasionally, that is, when problems occur. Polysorb MP binds predominantly harmful bacteria. This is due to the fact that the normal flora is “stronger” fixed between the intestinal villi. And pathogenic flora, especially when it multiplies abundantly, is located mainly in the intestinal lumen.

Polysorb is used from birth. For infants, it can be diluted in expressed milk immediately before use. For older children, you can dilute the powder in juice without pulp or compote, or mineral water before use.

How to take during pregnancy

Pregnant women can use Polysorb freely, since the drug does not have any negative influence on the health of the expectant mother and child.
