You can replace Klion D suppositories. All the most important things about the medicine “Klion-D”


Analogues of the drug Klion are presented, in accordance with medical terminology, called “synonyms” - drugs that are interchangeable in their effects on the body, containing one or more identical active ingredients. When selecting synonyms, consider not only their cost, but also the country of production and the reputation of the manufacturer.

Description of the drug

Klion- Antiprotozoal and antimicrobial drug, a 5-nitroimidazole derivative. The mechanism of action is the biochemical reduction of the 5-nitro group of metronidazole by intracellular transport proteins of anaerobic microorganisms and protozoa. The reduced 5-nitro group of metronidazole interacts with the DNA of microbial cells, inhibiting the synthesis of nucleic acids, which leads to the death of microorganisms.

Active regarding Trichomonas vaginalis, Entamoeba hystolitica, Gardnerella vaginalis, Giardia intestinalis, as well as obligate anaerobes Bacteroides spp. (including Bacteroides fragilis, Bacteroides ovatus, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, Bacteroides distasonis, Bacteroides vulgatus), Fusobacterium spp., Veillonella spp., Prevotella (Prevotella bivia, Prevotella buccae, Prevotella disiens) and some gram-positive microorganisms (Eubacterium spp., Clostridium spp., Peptococcus spp., Peptostreptococcus spp.). The MIC for these strains is 0.125 μg/ml. In combination with amoxicillin, it is active against Helicobacter pylori(amoxicillin suppresses the development of resistance to metronidazole).

Aerobic microorganisms and facultative anaerobes are insensitive to metronidazole, but in the presence of mixed flora (aerobes and anaerobes), metronidazole acts synergistically with antibiotics effective against common aerobes.

Increases the sensitivity of tumors to radiation, causes disulfiram-like reactions, and stimulates reparative processes.

Pharmacological properties

Antiprotozoal and antimicrobial drug, a derivative of 5-nitroimidazole. The mechanism of action is the biochemical reduction of the 5-nitro group of metronidazole by intracellular transport proteins of anaerobic microorganisms and protozoa. The reduced 5-nitro group of metronidazole interacts with the DNA of microbial cells, inhibiting the synthesis of their nucleic acids, which leads to the death of bacteria.

The MIC for these strains is 0.125-6.25 µg/ml. In combination with amoxicillin, it is active against Helicobacter pylori (amoxicillin suppresses the development of resistance to metronidazole). Aerobic microorganisms and facultative anaerobes are insensitive to metronidazole, but in the presence of mixed flora (aerobes and anaerobes), Klion acts synergistically with antibiotics effective against common aerobes. Increases the sensitivity of tumors to radiation, causes disulfiram-like reactions, and stimulates reparative processes.
Pharmacokinetics
Distribution: It has a high penetrating ability, reaching bactericidal concentrations in most tissues and body fluids, including lungs, kidneys, liver, skin, cerebrospinal fluid, brain, bile, saliva, amniotic fluid, abscess cavities, vaginal secretions, seminal fluid, breast milk, penetrates the blood-brain barrier (BBB) ​​and the placental barrier.
Volume of distribution: adults - approximately 0.55 l/kg, newborns 0.54-0.81 l/kg. C max ranges from 6 to 40 mcg/ml depending on the dose. Communication with plasma proteins is 10-20%. With intravenous administration of 500 mg over 20 minutes, Cmax in blood serum after 1 hour is 35.2 μg/ml.
The concentration of metronidazole in the blood serum after 4 hours is 33.9 mcg/ml, after 8 hours - 25.7 mcg/ml; Cmin upon subsequent administration is 18 mcg/ml. TC max - 30-60 minutes, therapeutic concentration is maintained for 6-8 hours. With normal bile formation, the concentration of metronidazole in bile after intravenous administration can significantly exceed the concentration in plasma.
Biotransformation: About 30-60% of metronidazole is metabolized in the body by hydroxylation, oxidation and glucuronidation. The main metabolite (2-oxymetronidazole) also has antiprotozoal and antimicrobial effects.
Removal: Half-life (T 1/2) at normal function liver - 8 hours (from 6 to 12 hours), with alcoholic liver damage - 18 hours (from 10 to 29 hours), in newborns born during pregnancy - 28-30 weeks - approximately 75 hours, 32-35 weeks - 35 h, 36-40 weeks - 25 h. 60-80% is excreted by the kidneys (20% unchanged), through the intestines - 6-15%.
At pronounced violations renal function (creatinine clearance less than 10 ml/min.) in patients after repeated administration, accumulation of metronidazole in the blood serum may be observed, and therefore the dose of the drug should be halved.
Klion and its main metabolites are quickly removed from the blood during hemodialysis (T 1/2 is reduced to 2.6 hours). During peritoneal dialysis, it is excreted in small quantities.

Indications for use

Protozoal infections: extraintestinal amebiasis, including amoebic liver abscess, intestinal amebiasis (amoebic dysentery), trichomoniasis, balantidiasis, giardiasis, cutaneous leishmaniasis, Trichomonas vaginitis, Trichomonas urethritis.
Infections caused by Bacteroides spp. (including Bacteroides fragilis, Bacteroides distasonis, Bacteroides ovatus, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, Bacteroides vulgatus): infections of bones and joints, infections of the central nervous system, incl. meningitis, brain abscess, bacterial endocarditis, pneumonia, empyema and lung abscess, sepsis.
Infections caused by Clostridium spp., Peptococcus and Peptostreptococcus: infections abdominal cavity(peritonitis, liver abscess), pelvic infections (endometritis, abscess fallopian tubes and ovaries, infections of the vaginal vault), infections of the skin and soft tissues.
Pseudomembranous colitis (associated with antibiotic use).
Gastritis or peptic ulcer duodenum associated with Helicobacter pylori.
Prevention postoperative complications(especially interventions on colon, perirectal region, appendectomy, gynecological operations).

Contraindications

- increased individual sensitivity to metronidazole or other nitroimidazoles;
- pregnancy (first trimester), lactation period;
- leukopenia (including history);
- organic lesions of the central nervous system (including epilepsy);
- liver failure (in case of prescribing large doses).
CAREFULLY
Pregnancy ( II-III trimesters), kidney/liver failure.

Pregnancy and lactation

Pregnancy:
Klion is contraindicated for use in the first trimester of pregnancy. Use of the drug in II and III trimesters is possible only in cases where the expected benefit of therapy for the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.
Lactation:
The drug passes into breast milk. If necessary, use of the drug should be discontinued breast-feeding. During breastfeeding, the use of the drug is contraindicated.

Directions for use and doses

Intravenously, drip. The injection rate is 5 ml/min.
If the patient's condition improves, the drug should be switched to oral administration.
Infections caused by anaerobic microorganisms

The initial dose is 15 mg/kg (3 ml).
The maintenance dose is 7.5 mg/kg (1.5 ml) every 6 hours for three days.
Then, at the same dose every 12 hours.
The maximum daily dose of metronidazole should not exceed 4 grams.
The average course of therapy is 7-10 days, but for more severe infections the course of therapy may last 2-3 weeks.
Children under 12 years old:
The initial dose is 7.5 mg/kg (1.5 ml), every 8 hours, for three days. Then, at the same dose, every 12 hours.
To prevent postoperative anaerobic complications Adults (body weight about 70 kg) and children over 12 years of age:
Intravenously, drip 15 mg/kg (3 ml), over 30-60 minutes.
Administration of the drug must be stopped 1 hour before the start of surgery. If necessary, 7.5 mg/kg (1.5 ml) of the drug can be administered 6-8 and even 12-16 hours after surgery.
Children under 12 years old:
The drug administration regimen is the same as above, but the single intravenous dose is 7.5 mg/kg (1.5 ml).
Use for renal impairment: Impaired renal function does not have a significant effect on the pharmacokinetic parameters of the drug, so the dose of Klion does not need to be changed. In patients with severely impaired renal function who are not on hemodialysis, with creatinine clearance below 10 ml/min. daily dose The drug should be reduced by 2 times.
In the case of simultaneous hemodialysis in a patient, it is necessary to remember to reduce the half-life of metronidazole. Therefore, after hemodialysis, additional administration of the drug may be required.
Hemodialysis: Klion and its metabolites are well excreted by hemodialysis. Since the elimination half-life decreases sharply during hemodialysis (to approximately 3 hours), in some cases it may be necessary to additional introduction drug.
For severe liver diseases Klion is metabolized more slowly.
As a result, Klion and its metabolites can accumulate in the blood plasma. In these cases, the dose and intervals between administration of the drug are set depending on the severity of liver damage.
Elderly patients: In elderly patients, the pharmacokinetics of metronidazole may change, so it may be necessary to monitor the concentration of metronidazole in the blood serum.

Side effects

From the gastrointestinal tract: nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, cramping pain in the lower abdomen, diarrhea, constipation, coated tongue, bitter, metallic taste in the mouth, dry mouth, glossitis, pancreatitis.
From the hematopoietic system: reversible neutropenia (leukopenia).
From the side of the central nervous system: peripheral neuropathy (feeling of numbness in the extremities) is rare and only when long-term use headaches, convulsions, drowsiness, dizziness, impaired coordination of movements, ataxia, confusion, depression, increased excitability, weakness, insomnia, hallucinations occur.
Allergic reactions: skin rash, urticaria, itchy skin, multiforme exudative erythema, angioedema and anaphylactic reaction.
Local reactions: Thrombophlebitis is possible at the injection site.
From the hepatobiliary system: increased activity of liver enzymes, cholestasis, jaundice.
From the outside genitourinary system: dysuria, cystitis, polyuria, urinary incontinence, candidiasis, red-brown coloration of urine (causes a metabolite of metronidazole, does not have clinical significance).
Others: increased body temperature, flattening of the T wave on the electrocardiogram.

Overdose

If symptoms of overdose appear (nausea, vomiting, ataxia), symptomatic therapy, since Klion does not have a specific antidote.
Klion and its metabolites are easily eliminated by hemodialysis.

Interaction with other drugs

- The drug may enhance the effect of oral anticoagulant drugs. Prothrombin time may increase, so dose adjustment of oral anticoagulants is necessary;
- Cimetidine inhibits the metabolism of metronidazole, which may lead to an increase in its concentration in the blood serum and an increased risk of developing side effects.
- Inducers of microsomal oxidation enzymes in the liver (for example, phenytoin, phenobarbital) can accelerate the elimination of metronidazole, which will lead to a decrease in its concentration in the blood plasma.
- Concomitant use of alcohol causes reactions similar to disulfiram (cramping abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, headache, skin hyperemia);
- Not acceptable joint use with disulfiram (additive effect, may cause confusion);
- The concentration of lithium in the blood may increase during the course of treatment with metronidazole, therefore, before starting to use Klion, it is necessary to reduce the dose of lithium or stop taking it for the duration of treatment;
- Simultaneous administration of cyclosporine with metronidazole may lead to an increase in the concentration of cyclosporine in plasma, which requires monitoring of the concentration of cyclosporine in the blood plasma;
- Klion reduces the clearance of fluorouracil, which increases its toxicity;
- At laboratory research while taking the drug, it may be difficult to determine the activity of ALT, AST, lactate dehydrogenase and triglyceride concentrations;
- Simultaneous administration of the drug with other solutions containing sodium salts may lead to sodium retention in the body.

special instructions

Intravenous administration of the solution for infusion is indicated for patients in whom oral administration of the drug is impossible. For mixed infections, infusion Klion can be used in combination with parenteral antibiotics, without mixing the drugs with each other.
When administered intravenously, it should not be mixed with other drugs.
When carrying out therapy for more than 10 days - only in justified cases, with strict monitoring of the patient and regular monitoring of laboratory blood parameters.

Klion D belongs to the antiprotozoal drugs that eliminate fungal infections and microorganisms.

Composition and release form of Klion D

In pharmacies, Klion D can be purchased in the form of tablets (20 pieces). 1 tablet of the drug contains 250 mg of metronidazole. Additional ingredients include sodium lauryl sulfate, colloidal anhydrous silica, povidone, magnesium stearate, sodium bicarbonate, tartaric acid, crospovidone and sodium carboxymethyl starch, lactose monohydrate and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose 2910.

They also produce vaginal tablets Klion D 100, 10 pieces per package, which consist of 100 mg of metronidazole and 100 mg of miconazole nitrate. Klion D candles have a white color and a special almond shape, as well as an uneven surface.

In addition, Klion D is produced in the form of an infusion solution (1 bottle of 100 ml).

Pharmacological action of Klion D

The main active ingredient of Klion D tablets and suppositories, metronidazole, restores the 5-nitro group at the biochemical level due to intracellular transport proteins of protozoa and anaerobic microorganisms. A completely reduced 5-nitro group entails the complete disappearance of bacteria.

In addition, the action of Klion D is aimed at destroying fungal cells.

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics

The instructions for Klion D note that when this drug is used intravaginally, metronidazole is completely absorbed into the blood.

Miconazole is not completely absorbed by tissues. After 8 hours, almost 90% of the miconazole nitrate is still in the vagina. This component of Klion D completely changes and dissolves, without manifesting itself either in the urine or in the blood.

The instructions for Klion D show that metronidazole, which is part of it, has an antiprotozoal effect and also fights various microbes and fungal formations. The drug cannot destroy only facultative anaerobes and aerobic microorganisms.

Miconazole is able to eliminate common dermatophytes, many fungi and yeasts in the body. Also in the instructions for Klion D it is indicated antibacterial effect miconazole against some gram-positive bacteria.

Reviews of Klion D show that this remedy is used to eliminate itching, which often leads to infections. Klion D suppositories are absolutely safe for the female body, because they do not change the pH of the vagina and certain composition microflora.

Indications for use of Klion D

Klion D is prescribed to eliminate infectious and inflammatory diseases, the cause of which is associated with the negative effects of a number of anaerobic bacteria. TO similar diseases may include osteomyelitis, sepsis, brain abscesses, peritonitis, lung and pelvic abscesses, meningitis, endometritis and gas gangrene.

Klion D 100 is also used for preventive purposes to get rid of infectious complications (caused by anaerobic streptococci and bacteroides) after surgery in the abdominal cavity and pelvic organs.

In some cases, Klion D suppositories are used to treat local vaginal infections.

Directions for use and dosage

Klion D tablets are prescribed in the following dosages:

  • If the patient has trichomoniasis, take 1 tablet (250 mg) orally, 2 times a day for 10 days. 1 is also assigned increased dosage in the evening – 8 tablets (2 g).
  • If an adult patient has giardiasis, take 2 tablets orally in the morning and evening for a week.
  • For amebiasis in adults - 2 tablets 3 times a day for 1-1.5 weeks.

The instructions for Klion D indicate that this drug is also used in the form of an infusion solution. In this case, children over 12 years of age and adults are administered Klion D by drip, 100 ml every 8 hours. The duration of treatment on average reaches a week. If there is urgency, intravenous administration funds can be continued. However, care must be taken to daily dosage did not exceed 4 g. After completing the course of treatment, the patient is prescribed Klion D tablets (400 mg 3 times a day).

For children under 12 years of age, Klion D 100 is administered at the rate of 1.5 ml of solution per 1 kg of body weight (the same dosage remains the same for preventive treatment this medicine).

For prevention, adults and children over 12 years of age are prescribed 100 ml of solution during, before and after surgery. This dosage is repeated every 8 hours. After this, Klion D tablets are prescribed (200-400 mg each).

If the patient has trichomoniasis, she needs to insert 1 Klion D suppository, pre-moistened with water, deep into the vagina. This should be done once before bedtime for 10 days. Additionally, take 1 tablet orally 2 times a day.

Side effects of Klion D

  • Reviews of Klion D show that in quality side effects most often there is burning, itching and irritation in the vagina (thick, white discharge, odorless), frequent urination, a burning sensation in the partner’s penis;
  • Nausea, dry mouth, change taste preferences, decreased appetite, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea or constipation;
  • Reviews of Klion D indicate that rashes, hives, and itching may occur on the skin;
  • Dizziness and headache;
  • Leukocytosis and leukopenia. In reviews of Klion D, it is noted that quite rarely urine can turn red-brown.

Contraindications for use

Klion D should not be taken during following cases:

  • If the patient is hypersensitive to some components of this drug;
  • For blood diseases, leukopenia, problems with coordination of movement, liver failure, disorders of the central nervous system;
  • Klion D should not be used during pregnancy (in the first trimester) and lactation;
  • Patients with diabetes mellitus and problems with blood microcirculation require additional consultation.

Use during pregnancy and lactation

Klion D is contraindicated during pregnancy in the 1st trimester. In the 2nd and 3rd trimesters, the drug must be prescribed with caution. Use during breastfeeding is not recommended.

Drug interactions of Klion D

Klion D 100 should not be taken together with disulfiram, as the patient may experience mental disorders.

Klion D increases the active ingredient indirect anticoagulants, which slows down the formation of prothrombins.

In reviews of Klion D, it is noted that the drug cannot be combined with vecuronium bromide.

Concomitant use of barbiturates reduces the effect of metronidazole.

The use of cimetidine and Klion D 100 increases the concentration of metronidazole in the blood, which leads to the development of side effects.

The use of drugs containing lithium increases their content in the blood plasma.

Do not decide to change the drug on your own; consult your doctor.

pharmachologic effect

Klion-D100 is a broad-spectrum drug. The main active ingredient is metronidazole, which is a derivative of nitro-5-imidazole. The mechanism of action of this substance is to restore the 5-nitro group in anaerobic microorganisms and protozoa. This leads to the death of microorganisms due to the interaction of the reduced 5-nitro group of metronidazole with the DNA of the microorganism cell.

  • It is active against a large number of microorganisms, such as Entamoeba histolytica, Giardia lamblia, Trichomonas vaginalis, Gardnerella vaginalis, and it is also active against anaerobic bacteria - Bacteroides spp. Veillonella spp., Fusobacterium spp., Prevotella spp.
  • The use of this drug is also effective for the treatment of diseases caused by certain gram-positive microorganisms, such as Clostridium spp., Eubacterium spp., Peptococcus spp., Peptostreptococcus spp. Facultative anaerobes and aerobic microorganisms are insensitive to Klion-d 100, but its use is recommended for the treatment of mixed aerobic-anaerobic infections.
  • Very effective against fungi, including dermatophytes and yeast fungi. Suppositories for intravaginal use effectively combat Candida albicans. Miconazole is able to suppress the biosynthesis of ergosterol in fungal cells, which leads to their death. Wherein normal microflora and vaginal pH do not change during treatment with this drug.

special instructions

During the period of use of the drug, you should not drink alcohol (risk of developing disulfiram-like reactions).

Metronidazole can immobilize treponemes, resulting in a false-positive TPI test (Nelson test).

When using Klion-D 100, slight leukopenia may be observed, so it is advisable to monitor the blood picture (the number of leukocytes) at the beginning and at the end of therapy.

If side effects from the central nervous system occur, you should refrain from driving vehicles and working with potentially dangerous mechanisms.

During pregnancy and breastfeeding

Contraindicated for use in the first trimester of pregnancy. The use of the drug in the second and third trimesters is possible only in cases where the expected benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.

Metronidazole is excreted in breast milk. During breastfeeding, the use of Klion-D 100 is contraindicated. If it is necessary to use the drug during lactation, breastfeeding should be stopped.

In childhood

Information is absent.

In old age

Information is absent.

For liver dysfunction

Contraindicated in case of liver failure (when prescribing the drug in high doses).

Drug interactions

  • Since the systemic absorption of miconazole is low, interactions with other drugs are caused by metronidazole.
  • Metronidazole is compatible with sulfonamides and antibiotics.
  • When consumed simultaneously, alcohol causes reactions similar to disulfiram (cramping abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, headache, skin flushing). Concomitant use with disulfiram is unacceptable (additive effects, may cause confusion).
  • The drug can enhance the effect of indirect anticoagulants. Prothrombin time may increase, so dose adjustment of indirect anticoagulants is necessary.
  • It is not recommended to combine the drug with non-depolarizing muscle relaxants (vecuronium bromide).
  • Inducers of microsomal oxidation enzymes in the liver (for example, phenytoin, phenobarbital) can accelerate the elimination of metronidazole, which leads to a decrease in its concentration in the blood plasma.
  • Cimetidine inhibits the metabolism of metronidazole, which may lead to an increase in its concentration in the blood serum and an increased risk of side effects.
