Interaction
No clinically significant interactions with other drugs were found. Simultaneous use of the drug with other topical antimicrobial agents is possible.
Ascorbic acid increases absorption of drugs of penicillin group, iron, reduces the clinical effect of heparin and indirect anticoagulants, increases the risk of crystalluria during treatment with salicylates and sulfonamides of short action, delays renal excretion of acids, increases excretion of drugs with alkaline reactions (including alkaloid.including alkaloids), reduces the blood concentration of oral contraceptives.
Enhances total clearance of ethanol, which in turn reduces the concentration of ascorbic acid in the body.
The quinoline-type drugs, calcium preparations, salicylates, glucocorticosteroid drugs with long-term use deplete ascorbic acid reserves.
In concomitant use reduces the chronotropic effect of isoprenaline.
In long-term use or use in high doses may interfere with the interaction of disulfiram and ethanol.
In high doses increases excretion of mexiletine by the kidneys.
Barbiturates and primidone increase ascorbic acid excretion by the kidneys.
Decreases the therapeutic effect of antipsychotic drugs (neuroleptics) – phenothiazine derivatives, tubal reabsorption of amphetamine and tricyclic antidepressants.
Special Instructions
It is recommended that the drug be taken in as short a course as possible and in the lowest effective dose necessary to relieve symptoms.
Patients with diabetes should be aware that each tablet contains about 2.6 g of sugar (0.22 IU).
High doses of ascorbic acid increase oxalate excretion, contributing to the formation of kidney stones. Newborns whose mothers have taken high doses of ascorbic acid and adults who have taken high doses may experience “ricochet” scurvy. With prolonged use of high doses there may be suppression of pancreatic insular apparatus function.
In patients with elevated iron content in the body ascorbic acid should be used in minimal doses.
Ascorbic acid as a reducing agent can distort the results of various laboratory tests (blood and urine glucose, bilirubin, activity of “hepatic” transaminases and lactate dehydrogenase).
Influence on ability to drive vehicles, mechanisms
The drug does not influence the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery as well as engage in other potentially dangerous activities requiring high concentration and quick psychomotor reactions.
Synopsis
It has a pleasant orange flavor. Helps relieve sore throat. Due to the format of the lozenge, the active ingredient is distributed more evenly in the tissues of the throat and lasts longer, which gives more opportunities for therapeutic effect. The drug fights bacteria and fungi and has an antimycotic effect. Read the instructions for medical use carefully before taking the drug.
Contraindications
- High sensitivity to the ingredients.
- Children under 6 years of age.
- Deficiency of sugar/isomaltase, fructose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption.

to < 1/100), rare (≥ 1/10 000 to < 1/1000), very rare (< 1/10 000),
frequency unknown (data to estimate frequency are not sufficient).
Immune system disorders
Frequency unknown: hypersensitivity reactions.
Gastrointestinal tract disorders
Prevalence unknown: nausea, abdominal pain, feeling of discomfort in the mouth (burning or tingling sensation, swelling).
Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders

Low probability, possible overdose may lead to gastrointestinal discomfort: nausea.

Treatment: symptomatic under medical supervision, forced diuresis.
Pregnancy use
