Bobotik, drops 66.66mg/ml 30 ml

BOBOTIC has a foam-forming, antipyrogonic action.

Pharmacodynamics

Simethicone (activated dimethicone) is a combination of methylated linear siloxane polymers stabilized with trimethylsiloxyl groups with silicon dioxide. By reducing the surface tension at the interface, it hinders the formation and promotes the destruction of gas bubbles in the intestinal contents and mucus of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT).

The gases released during this process can be absorbed by the intestinal wall or eliminated through peristalsis. This prevents the formation of large gas-mucous conglomerates that cause painful abdominal bloating. In sono- and radiography it prevents image defects; it promotes better irrigation of mucous coat of large intestine with contrast preparations, preventing rupture of contrast film.

Due to chemical inertness it does not affect the microorganisms and enzymes present in the gastrointestinal tract. It does not reduce absorption of food, does not change the reaction and volume of gastric juice.

Pharmacokinetics

Simethicone after oral administration is not absorbed from the GI tract and is excreted unchanged through the intestine.

How to take, the dosage

BOBOTIC is administered orally, after meals.

Bottle should be shaken before use until a homogeneous emulsion is obtained.

For precise dosage of the drug, the bottle should be held upright when it is injected.

In case of increased gas excretion and accumulation of gas in the gastrointestinal tract, children from 28 days of life to 2 years old are administered 8 drops (20 mg simethicone) 4 times a day; children from 2 to 6 years old – 14 drops (35 mg simethicone) 4 times a day; children over 6 years old and adults – 16 drops (40 mg simethicone) 4 times a day.

For easier administration of BOTIC, particularly in small children, it can be premixed with a small amount of cold boiled water, baby food or non-carbonated liquid.

When symptoms disappear, the drug should be stopped.

Interaction

Contraindications

Side effects

An allergic reaction may occur.

Overdose

There are no reports of overdose.

Simethicone is not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and an overdose is not life or health threatening.

Pregnancy use

In pregnancy, the drug may be used only when the estimated benefit to the mother exceeds the potential risk to the fetus.

There are no data on the safety of using the drug in breastfeeding women. During breastfeeding the drug should be used only if absolutely necessary.
