the Pharmacological

Pharmacokinetics Later properties of local putting gel azelaic acid gets into all layers of skin. Penetration happens quicker in the injured skin, than in healthy. After single topical administration of 1 g of azelaic acid about 3.6% of the put dose are soaked up.
A part of the soaked-up acid is removed by kidneys in not changed look. The rest in the form of the dicarboxylic acids from the chain (C7, C5) shortened by length which are formed as a result of beta oxidation is removed also by kidneys.
The pharmacodynamics
Skinorena Active ingredient is azelaic acid which medical effect is connected with influence on the main pathogenetic links of an acne disease - hyper keratinization of a wall of a hair follicle, the strengthened reproduction of microorganisms in a sebaceous gland, development of inflammatory process in a sebaceous gland.
Azelaic acid, having ability to slow down biosynthesis of cellular proteins, renders the moderate cytostatic effect which is shown in normalization of processes of keratinization in a wall of a hair follicle (inhibits proliferation of keratinotsit). Azelaic acid accelerates lysis of comedones, formation of fatty acids normalizes processes (reduces fraction of free fatty acids in superficial lipids of skin). Drug has bacteriostatic activity concerning Propionibacterium acne and Staphylococcus epidermidis, inhibits growth of the acnes of propionic bacteria participating in education, both on the surface of skin, and in sebaceous glands. Besides, drug has anti-inflammatory properties, reducing metabolism of neutrocytes and development of free radical forms of oxygen by them - important factors of maintenance of inflammatory process. Even at prolonged use of Skinoren it is not observed development of resistant forms of microorganisms. Azelaic acid renders the overwhelming impact on growth and viability of abnormal melanocytes depending on a dose and on time. Abnormal melanocytes cause a melazma type hyperpegmentation. The therapeutic effect of Skinoren in a hyperpegmentation (melazma) is caused by inhibition of synthesis of DNA and/or suppression of cellular respiration of abnormal melanocytes (inhibits growth and activity).
Indications
- an acne (acne disease)
- a rozatsea.
