Pharmacological properties

Pharmacokinetics

Absorption

De-Nol® is a surface-active agent, negligible amounts of bismuth, derivatives of bismuth subcitrate, are absorbed during treatment (less than 0.2% of the dose).

Distribution

Bismuth is mainly deposited in the kidneys, other organs also contain traces of bismuth.

Biotransformation

De-Nol® is deposited in the stomach into insoluble bismuth complex compounds, possibly into bismuth oxychloride and bismuth citrate.

Selection

The main part of bismuth taken orally is excreted in the feces. Urinary clearance with a small amount of absorbed bismuth is approximately 50 ml/min. However, most of the absorbed bismuth is excreted during a half-life of 5-11 days.

Pharmacodynamics

De-Nol® is an antiulcer agent with bactericidal activity against Helicobacter pylori. It also has anti-inflammatory and astringent properties. In the acidic environment of the stomach, insoluble bismuth oxychloride and citrate are precipitated, chelate compounds with a protein substrate are formed in the form of a protective film on the surface of ulcers and erosions. By increasing the synthesis of prostaglandins E, the formation of mucus and the secretion of bicarbonate, it stimulates the activity of cytoprotective mechanisms, increases the resistance of the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract to the effects of pepsin, hydrochloric acid, enzymes and bile salts. Leads to the accumulation of epidermal growth factor in the area of ​​the defect. Reduces the activity of pepsin and pepsinogen.

 

Indications for use

  • Peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum
  • Chronic gastritis and gastroduodenitis in the acute phase, including those associated with Helicobacter pylori
