Lysobact is considered to be quite effective, but it is contraindicated for people with lactose intolerance, and besides, it does not give instant effect.
What can replace Lizobakt?
Determining which drug to replace Lysobact, it should be borne in mind that the analogs can be either structural (with the same active substance), and by effect (with the same therapeutic effect, but based on other substances).
The active substances in Lizobakt are lysozyme and pyridoxine. Absolute analogues in composition of active substances this drug does not have, but conditionally Lizobakt's structural analogues include Laripront and Hexalysis, which also includes lysozyme.
According to the pharmacological action (antiseptic and immunomodulating agents) the list of analogues is much wider, and it can be attributed to Imudon (immunomodulator) and such antiseptics or antibacterial drugs as:
- Tharyngept;
- Inhaliptus ;
- Sebidine;
- Hexoral;
- Rince Lorcept;
- Strepsils;
- Gramdin and others.
The advantages and disadvantages of Lizobakt analogues
Consider the most popular substitutes for Lysobact, and in which cases they are best used.
What is better - Lizobakt or Laripront?
Both drugs contain lysozyme. The composition of the lysobacter also includes pyridoxine (a synthetic analogue of vitamin B6), which has a protective effect on the mucosa and increases the immunity. In the composition of Laripronta there is dekvalinia chloride - a broad spectrum antiseptic with pronounced antifungal and antibacterial activity. Laripont has a more pronounced antiseptic effect, but does not affect the regeneration of the mucosa, and costs a little more than Lizobakt.
Which is better - Lizobakt or Hexaliz?
In the composition of Hexalysis, in addition to lysozyme, include biclutymol and enoxolone. The drug has a complex anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antimicrobial effect. It is prescribed only by a doctor with obvious indications and is not combined with other topical preparations. It is much cheaper than Lizobakt.
What is better - Lizobakt or Imudon?
Imudon is an exclusively immunostimulating preparation of local effects. It increases the production of interferon, lysozyme, immunoglobulin A in saliva and promotes an increase in the number of phagocytes (immune cells). The effect of the drug is not immediate, and it does not have antiseptic effect, therefore, with inflammation of the oral cavity and throat, it is recommended that Imudon be used not as a substitute, but in combination with antiseptic agents.
Which is better - Tharyngept or Lizobakt?
Farnigosept is an antiseptic of local exposure on the basis of Ambasone. Has a strong bacteriostatic effect (the ability to suppress the reproduction of bacteria), especially in relation to pneumococci and streptococci. Farnigosept is more often used for infections of the upper respiratory tract, since in this case its effect is more noticeable. In dentistry is more effective
Which is better - Grammidine or Lizobakt?
Gramidine is an antibiotic that is effective against almost all pathogens that cause inflammation of the mouth and throat. Used for angina, acute pharyngitis, tonsillitis, stomatitis, periodontitis, gingivitis. Like any antibiotic, it can adversely affect the condition of the microflora as a whole, and not just the pathogenic one. Therefore, it is used if antiseptic agents such as Lysobact are not effective, or in combination with them, in acute infections.
