Contraindication
Benzydamine Hydrochloride is contraindicated in subjects with a history of hypersensitivity to any of its components.
Mode of Action
Benzydamine Hydrochloride predominantly acts by inhibiting the synthesis of pro inflammatory cytokines like tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) without largely affecting other pro inflammatory cytokines. Moreover, it is capable of a local anaesthetic effect that may be related to its capability for inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators like substance P.
Precaution
The use of undiluted benzydamine Hydrochloride may produce local irritation manifested by burning sensation in patients with mucosal defects. If necessary, it may be diluted (1:1) with lukewarm water. Since it is absorbed from the oral mucosa and excreted mostly unchanged in the urine, a possibility of its systemic action has to be considered in patients with renal impairment.
