Pharmacological properties

Active ingredient of medicine is dekspantenol — provitamin v5. in skin cells dekspantenol quickly turns into pantothenic acid and works as vitamin. dekspantenol quicker, than pantothenic acid, is absorbed after external use.

Pantothenic acid is a component of coenzyme A (CoA). In this form acetyl coenzyme A (CoA) plays the central role in metabolism of each cell. Pantothenic acid, thus, is necessary for formation and healing of the damaged skin and mucous membranes.

Drug has a hydrophilic cream basis owing to what it is quickly soaked up by skin therefore it is suitable for processing of the becoming wet wounds, the unprotected sites of skin (for example face skin) and the sites of skin covered with hair.

. In skin cells dekspantenol turns into pantothenic acid at once and it is added to endogenous fund of this vitamin.

In blood pantothenic acid contacts β-globulin and albumine of blood plasma. At healthy adults the concentration makes about 500–1000 and 100 mg/l in blood and plasma respectively.

Pantothenic acid is not exposed to biotransformation. She is brought in not changed look. 60–70% are removed with urine, the rest — with a stake.
