Promotes transportation from the internal environment of the body (blood, lymph, interstitium) to the digestive tract due to concentration and osmotic gradients of various toxic products, including medium molecules, oligopeptides, amines and other substances, followed by excretion from the body.

Dosage and administration

Atoxil is a medication that can be taken internally as a suspension. To make the suspension, 1-2 sachets (2-4 g) should be mixed with 50-100 ml (¼-½ cup) of neutral non-carbonated or chilled boiled water until it becomes a uniform mixture. For adults and children over 7 years old, the recommended daily dose is 12 g, which can be increased to 24 g if necessary. Children between 1 and 7 years old should take 150-200 mg per 1 kg of body weight per day, divided into 3-4 doses. The prepared suspension should be taken orally 1 hour before meals or other medications.

When treating acute intestinal diseases in adults and children over 7 years old, it is recommended to start with a maximum single dose of 7 g, twice a day. If necessary, the suspension can be administered through a tube. The course of treatment for acute intestinal diseases is usually 3-5 days, but it can be extended up to 10-15 days in severe cases. The duration of treatment for viral hepatitis depends on the severity of the condition and is typically 7-10 days.

For external use, Atoxil powder should be applied to a cleaned wound with a layer of 3-5 mm and covered with a dry aseptic dressing. Dressings should be changed daily before cleaning the wound.
