Pharmacological properties
This drug Pantenol belongs to antimicrobial and antiseptic agents for local use, which are used to treat wounds and ulcerative skin lesions.
The main active ingredient of the drug is dexpanthenol (provitamin B5). In skin cells, this substance is rapidly converted into pantothenic acid, which is a component of coenzyme, playing an important role in the metabolism of each cell.
Pantothenic acid is therefore essential for the formation and healing of damaged skin and mucous membranes.

Indications
It is intended for the treatment of various lesions of the skin and mucous membranes, including:

• abrasions;
• burns;
• aseptic postoperative wounds;
• with skin transplantation;
• with bullous and / or blistering dermatitis.

Dexpanthenol is a derivative of pantothenic acid. It has the ability to regenerate mucous membranes, normalize cell metabolism, accelerate mitosis and strengthen collagen fibers. It has a regenerating, vitaminizing and anti-inflammatory effect.
The body’s need for pantothenic acid increases with damage to the skin or tissues. This deficiency can be compensated for with the help of topical application of dexpanthenol, since this substance has the property of intensely penetrating into all layers of the skin.
