Pharmacotherapeutic group: solutions affecting water-electrolyte balance.

The ATX code: B05BB

Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics

REAMBERIN® has an anti-hypoxic and antioxidant effect, positively influencing aerobic processes in the cell, reducing the production of free radicals and restoring the energy potential of cells.
The drug activates Krebs cycle enzymatic processes, promotes utilization of fatty acids and glucose in cells, normalizes acid-base balance and blood gas composition. It has a moderate diuretic effect.

Pharmacokinetics

In intravenous administration the drug is quickly utilized and does not accumulate in the body.

Indications

REAMBERIN® is used in adults and children from 1 year old as an antihypoxic and detoxifying agent in acute endogenous and exogenous intoxications of various etiologies.

The use in patients with renal insufficiency. No studies have been performed in patients with renal insufficiency. Because of this it is recommended to exercise caution when using the drug in such patients.

The use in alkalosis. If decompensated alkalosis is detected, the drug should be discontinued until normalization of acid-base state of blood.

Interaction

The drug combines well with antibiotics, water-soluble vitamins, glucose solution. It combines with drugs containing phosphates, sulfates or tartrates. It is not recommended to mix it in a bottle or container with other drugs. Intravenous administration of REAMBERIN® simultaneously with calcium preparations is unacceptable due to possible precipitation of calcium succinate.

Special Instructions

Due to activation of aerobic processes in the body by the drug, a decrease in blood glucose concentration and alkaline reaction of urine may occur. Patients with diabetes mellitus and patients with reduced glucose tolerance require periodic monitoring of blood glucose concentration. If the color of the solution changes or there is sediment the drug is unacceptable.

Impact on the ability to drive vehicles, operate machinery It is not recommended to drive vehicles and operate machinery during treatment with REAMBERIN®.

Contraindications

Individual intolerance, condition after craniocerebral injury accompanied by cerebral edema, acute renal failure, chronic renal disease (stage 5, glomerular filtration rate less than 15 ml/min), pregnancy, breast-feeding period.

With caution

In alkalosis, renal failure.

Pregnant and breastfeeding use REAMBERIN® is contraindicated in pregnant and breastfeeding women as there are no clinical studies in these groups of patients.
