Directions for use and doses
The contents of 1 bottle must be dissolved in a glass of drinking water. Atoxil should be taken two hours before or after meals. It is also worth limiting the use of any therapeutic compositions during such a period of time. It must be remembered that the drug removes all chemicals and trace elements from the body. The simultaneous use of drugs will simply lead to their useless use.
You can consume no more than 12 g of active substance in one day. In particularly difficult situations, the doctor may double this dose. It is not recommended to perform this activity yourself. One milliliter of the finished suspension contains 50 mg of the active ingredient. So, after carrying out basic calculations, you can see that 12 grams of the drug will amount to 240 milliliters of suspension. This part should be divided into several techniques. It is recommended to use the drug after each bowel movement.
As for use in children under 7 years of age, 150 mg of the drug should be given for every kilogram of the child’s weight. This suggests that a child weighing 20 kg should consume 60 milliliters of solution. The medicine is also divided into three or four servings.
When using the powder externally, it must be applied to a cleaned wound surface, then covered with a sterile bandage, which should be changed every day.
Instructions for use
pharmachologic effect
Atoxyl is an enterosorbent with pronounced sorption properties. The drug has antimicrobial, detoxification, and wound-healing properties. It has the ability to adsorb and remove from the body exogenous and endogenous toxic components of various origins, including microbial endotoxins, bacterial and food allergens, as well as other toxic products and toxic substances that appear in the intestines during the decay of proteins.
The use of the medicine promotes the transport of toxins (including amines, oligopeptides, medium molecules and other substances) from the blood, lymph and tissues into the digestive tract with their further removal from the human body.
Atoxil does not have the effect of reverse sorption, and the bacterial mass is agglutinated (sticks together and is excreted into the residue). This effect is achieved due to the fact that powder particles are able to connect with several cells simultaneously.
Indications for use
Atoxil is usually prescribed for:
acute intestinal diseases that are accompanied by diarrhea (foodborne infections, salmonellosis);- viral hepatitis B and A (as part of complex treatment);
- food poisoning (including mushrooms, alcohol);
- allergic diseases (diathesis, atopic dermatitis);
- the presence of burns, trophic ulcers, purulent wounds (externally);
- liver cirrhosis, hepatocholecystitis, enterocolitis, toxic hepatitis, diseases of the renal system, which are accompanied by chronic renal failure (as a detoxification drug);
- skin diseases (neurodermatitis, eczema, dermatitis);
- drug and alcohol intoxication;
- intoxications associated with purulent-septic processes, burn disease.
Mode of application
Atoxil is taken orally in the form of a suspension. You can prepare it as follows:
- pour half or a quarter glass of chilled boiled or neutral still water (corresponds to 50-100 ml);
- pour the contents of one or two sachets (2-4 g) into a glass;
- to stir thoroughly.
There is another way to prepare the suspension: open the bottle or bottle with the powder, add water to it up to the 250 ml mark. Then the contents of the bottle are mixed until a homogeneous liquid is formed.
The prepared suspension is taken one hour before meals or other medications.
For children over the age of seven and adults, it is recommended to take 12 g per day, but if necessary, this rate can be doubled.
To calculate the daily dose for a child 1-7 years old, the baby’s weight is multiplied by 150-200. The resulting dosage (in mg) is divided into three or four doses. Please note: a single dose should be less than or equal to half the daily dose.
Treatment of acute intestinal diseases in adults and children over seven begins with a maximum single dose of 7 g. The frequency of use is two to three times a day. If the patient cannot take enterosorbent on his own, the suspension is injected into the stomach using a tube. Therapy for acute intestinal ailments continues for 3-5 days. Sometimes the treatment period is extended to 10-15 days (in severe cases).
Therapy for viral hepatitis takes 7-10 days . Its duration depends on how severe the disease is.
Atoxil can also be used for external use. This is done as follows: clean the wound, apply a layer of powder 3-5 mm thick, cover the wound with a dry, disinfected bandage. Such dressings are done every other day until the wound is cleansed.
Release form, composition
The drug Atoxil is available in sachets, bottles and vials containing white amorphous powder. It has no smell or taste, so its use does not cause any discomfort.
All dosage forms contain the same substance – highly dispersed silicon dioxide. Only the amount of the active ingredient differs: inside the bottle there is 10 g of the substance, inside the bottle - 12 g, and inside the sachet - 2 g.
Interaction with other drugs
The combined use of acetylsalicylic acid and Ataxil leads to increased platelet disaggregation processes.
The use of the drug during intracorporeal detoxification in combination with antiseptic solutions (chlorhexidine bigluconate, bifuran, furatsilin, trifuran) helps to increase the effectiveness of treatment of purulent-inflammatory diseases.
If Atoxil is taken simultaneously with simvastatin and nicotinic acid, the drug exhibits a synergistic effect (atherogenic fractions of the lipid spectrum decrease, the level of VP lipoproteins, as well as cholesterol, increases).
Reviews and recommendations from doctors and patients
Consumers report that Atoxil effectively removes all harmful substances and toxins from the body. It is very convenient to use, you can always take it with you to work or on the road. They also note a pleasant taste, which makes it easy to treat even small children. In this case, experts remind that independent use of the composition can lead to unexpected reactions from the child’s digestive organs. In some cases, symptomatic correction of side effects is required.
Doctors testify that the medicine enters the stomach and intestines, and then settles on the mucous membranes of the organs. The composition cleanses the cavity of toxins. It can also affect pathogenic bacteria and viruses. Therefore, specialists often prescribe this drug to treat bacterial and viral intestinal infections.
Reviews
Atoxil is one of the most common adsorbents, so reviews of this drug are common. Most patients agree
on the fact that the medicine is highly effective and has the ability to quickly eliminate symptoms.
Reviews are often left by women whose children took Atoxil for acute intestinal infectious diseases. In many children, the effect was observed immediately after taking the drug.

Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics
Atoxil powder belongs to enterosorbents , which have a pronounced sorption effect, providing a wound-healing, antiallergic, antimicrobial, bacteriostatic and detoxification effect.
The active substance of Atoxyl is silicon dioxide , thanks to which it adsorbs exogenous and endogenous toxins of various origins from the gastrointestinal tract, for example, endotoxins of microorganisms, bacterial or food allergens and other toxic substances that appear when proteins, unprocessed foods rot in the intestines, and so on.
Adsorption of toxic substances occurs on the surface of Atoxil with subsequent removal from the body. The high dispersion of the drug ensures the speed of adsorption processes. The presence of concentration and osmotic gradients in the drug accelerates the transport of toxic substances from the blood, lymph or tissues into the gastrointestinal tract, and then excretion from the body occurs.
The bakagglutinating effect of the drug is ensured by the absence of reverse sorption properties. Small particles of powder attach to several bacterial cells, completely agglutinating all bacteria.
Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity to silicon dioxide;
- peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum in the acute stage;
- ulcers and intestinal erosions;
- intestinal obstruction.
Interaction with other drugs and other types of interactions.
With the simultaneous use of the drug Atoxil with acetylsalicylic acid, the processes of platelet disaggregation increased.
In complex therapy with nicotinic acid and simvastatin, Atoxil exhibits a synergistic effect - it helps to reduce the level of atherogenic fractions of the blood lipid spectrum and increase the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
The use of the drug Atoxil during intracorporeal sorption detoxification together with standard solutions of antiseptics (furacilin, bifuran, trifuran, chlorhexidine digluconate) increases the effectiveness of treatment of purulent-inflammatory diseases.
Composition and release form
Although only the powder form of the drug is produced, for the convenience of users, the manufacturer has provided several ways to package the drug.
- In waterproof bags . They contain 2 grams of the drug Atoxil.
- In bottles . Each bottle contains 10 g/12 g of dry mixture.
The dry grayish mass is silicon dioxide, the only active component of the medicine. Atoxil powder is used to prepare a medicinal suspension. Other elements are not included in the composition of the drug.
Bottom line
