Dekasan is a strong antimicrobial drug used for the disinfection of surgical instruments, before labor, during cavitary operations.

What is the rationale for the use of Dexan for inhalation?
Start using Dexan for inhalation with a nebulizer is best in the early stages of the illness, it will help prevent complications. For example, with a cold it's good to carry out 1-2 procedures a day, it will not let the infection fall lower and spread to the respiratory system, which means it will reduce the risk of developing diseases such as tracheitis and bronchitis. In addition, unlike vasoconstrictive drops, inhalation will not only facilitate breathing and will enhance the withdrawal of sputum, but will also have a therapeutic effect.
Due to the fact that the main active ingredient, detoximeter, destroys the intercellular membrane of practically all known gram-positive and some gram-negative bacteria, they lose their ability to reproduce and gradually die. Spraying with a nebulizer allows microparticles of the antibacterial agent to cover the entire mucosa of the respiratory tract, clearing them of microorganisms. The effectiveness of this method of treatment is very high.
