Use of Tantum Verde for newborns

The pediatrician prescribes the spray based on the condition of each individual baby. The basic principle of treating an illness is “Do no harm!” Parents are not recommended to practice self-medication or prescribe medications for their child, no matter how old he is. Before prescribing the spray, the doctor will necessarily collect the entire medical history, clarify whether the child has allergic reactions and how serious treatment the throat condition requires. Only after all the manipulations will he make the necessary diagnosis. Therefore, if you decide to take Tantum Verde for a child under one year old, it is preferable to consult a doctor for advice.

The main task facing parents is to develop immunity in the child. To do this, it is important to give him high-quality nutrition, including fresh fruits and vegetables, daily walks in the fresh air, and exercise. If a child has a strong immune system, then his body will fight and cope with infections on its own. Therefore, you do not have to give your baby medications and worry about side effects.

Tantum Verde

Tantum Verde is a remedy that is especially widely used in medicine. This is due to the fact that it has effective medicinal properties and the fewest side effects. Therefore, despite the fact that the instructions for the drug indicate taking Tantum Verde for children from three years of age, pediatricians also prescribe it for infants.

It is important!

Often, at an appointment with a pediatrician, children are diagnosed with acute respiratory infections. The disease is accompanied by redness of the throat, as the infection enters the body and encounters the tonsils on its way. They, protecting the bronchi and lungs, take the entire blow of the infection upon themselves. As a result, the throat turns red and begins to hurt. Doctors often prescribe Tantum Verde for babies under one year of age. What did he do to deserve such favor from pediatricians?

The use of the spray for children under 2 years of age should be carried out exclusively by doctors in a hospital.

When using a spray to treat babies of this age, parents are taking a great risk. A small child does not yet know how the throat is irrigated. While injecting the spray, he may involuntarily inhale, which will cause severe bronchospasm, leading to respiratory arrest. This little one won’t be able to gargle his sore throat, nor will he be able to take pills. Almost all sprays available in pharmacies have a wide spray range. The difference between Tantum Verde is that it has a jet injection mechanism. For infants, carefully inject the drug onto the cheek, but more on that later.

What is Tantum Verde?

A strong remedy from an Italian manufacturer. It has a powerful antiseptic effect. It is used in the treatment of diseases of the ENT organs, in maxillofacial surgery, and also in dental offices.

The drug is released in the form:

1. Tablets that are prohibited for children under twelve years of age, expectant mothers, and people with phenylketonuria;
2. For inflammation of the oral cavity - an alcohol solution (children over 12 years old);
3. Spray used for sore throat.

The drug is included in the category of anti-inflammatory, non-steroidal drugs.

The spray contains benzydamine chloride. It is the main active ingredient that stops the production of prostaglandins, which provoke any inflammatory processes in the body. Tantum Verde relieves pain by reducing capillary permeability. This remedy prevents the release of oxidative processes in cells, as well as the production of histamine. Improves microcirculation in tissues affected by infection. Absorption of the active substance occurs through the mucous membranes. The active substance accumulates at the site of inflammation.

In addition to the active ingredient benzydamine chloride, the spray contains auxiliary components that depend on the form of release. For example, a throat spray includes:

• methyl parahydroxybenzoate;
• glycerol;
• sodium bicarbonate;
• ethanol (96%);
• polysorbate 20;
• menthol flavoring;
• purified water.

Contraindications

If your baby is not feeling well, be sure to consult a doctor, and only then use Tantum Verde spray. This is especially important if the child is newborn. So, an elevated temperature can become a sign not just of a cold, but of a more serious illness. After all, the baby will not be able to tell what exactly is hurting him, and a red throat may simply be an accompanying symptom. Of course, sore throat in infants is an extremely rare occurrence, but a cough can be a sign of bronchitis or pneumonia, which requires urgent treatment. For such diseases, the spray can only cause bronchospasm; moreover, antibiotics are indispensable. If the child’s throat is simply red and signs of tonsillitis appear, then the spray is prescribed as an addition to the main treatment. This promotes a speedy recovery.

The instructions for Tantum Verde indicate the following contraindications:

• taking tablets is contraindicated for people suffering from phenylketonuria and expectant mothers;
• the solution is contraindicated in patients under 12 years of age;
• Do not use the drug if you have allergic reactions to the components.

There are also a number of ailments that prohibit the use of Tantum Verde spray:

• asthma;
• ulcer;
• heart failure.

About possible allergic reactions

Along with positive reviews about the spray, you can also find negative ones. Almost all of them are caused by allergic reactions in infants to the components of the drug.

As mentioned above, the main component of Tantum Verde is benzydamine chloride, which has a powerful effect on the infection, actively influencing cellular processes. In children, such active exposure sometimes causes unpredictable consequences. Some babies may have an allergic reaction to additional components of the drug.

For the youngest patients, doctors prescribe only Tantum Verde spray, since its use has minimal chance of causing allergies. It is very convenient to use, but each person has an individual reaction to one or another component of the product.

Side effects while taking Tantum Verde

If the spray is used for a long time, serious consequences may occur, such as intestinal and gastric bleeding, anemia, and a decrease in the number of platelets.

It is important to use the drug as an additional component in complex therapy, but not as an independent remedy.

Side effects when using the spray include:

• vomiting and nausea;
• dizziness and headache;
• diarrhea;
• hives;
• itching;
• Quincke's edema.

Children may experience an allergic reaction to taking the spray in the form of a rash all over the body. Taking into account the characteristics of the child’s body, pediatricians, together with Tantum Verde, prescribe antihistamines for infants.
