Otipax is a representative of the pharmacological group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and topical anesthetics for external use. Doctors use it for treating inflammatory ear conditions accompanied by pain.

Form of issue and composition

Otipax is available in the form of ear drops for external use. It is a clear, colorless or light yellow liquid with a characteristic smell of alcohol. The solution consists of 2 main active substances, their content in 1 ml is:
Phenazone – 40 mg.
Lidocaine hydrochloride is 10 mg.
Also, the composition of ear drops includes auxiliary components, which include glycerol, sodium thiosulfate, ethanol, purified water. The solution is contained in a vial of dark glass with a volume of 16 ml. Cardboard pack contains one bottle, a special dropper and an annotation to the drug.

Pharmachologic effect

Otipax ear drops are a combined medicinal product, and their therapeutic effect arises from their main active substances. Phenazone works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase, which catalyzes the conversion of arachidonic acid into inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and prostacyclin. By reducing their concentration, it diminishes the severity of hyperemia, edema, and pain sensations in the site of inflammation. Lidocaine hydrochloride, on the other hand, acts as a local anesthetic by blocking impulses from sensory nerve fibers, thereby reducing various types of sensitivity, primarily pain.

The combined effect of these active substances in Otipax ear drops significantly speeds up and enhances the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. When you instill the solution into the external auditory canal, the active substances and auxiliary components do not get absorbed into the systemic bloodstream, provided that the integrity of the tympanic membrane remains intact.
