Description of the drug
Before getting to the main point, I would like to briefly describe this medicine and what it consists of.
Oral drops Tonsilgon Bionorica is an exclusively herbal preparation that consists of several active components:
• walnut leaves;
Thanks to the unique combination of healing plant extracts, the drug Tonsilgon has become widely used in modern otolaryngology as an antiseptic, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agent.
Reviews about the drug
Natalya, 28 years old.
My child began to get colds often as soon as he entered kindergarten. Prolonged inflammation of the mucous membrane, and as a result, the nose runs, and it is simply impossible to breathe without droplets. At an appointment with an ENT specialist, I was diagnosed with adenoids. We tried a bunch of different drugs, but there was no effect. We have already begun to prepare for the operation, when my pharmacist friend recommended Sinupret. Believe it or not, after 4 days my nose started breathing on its own. I am very happy, because after a course of treatment, the otolaryngologist said that the adenoids had significantly decreased in size and almost stopped bothering us. So among drugs Sinupret comes first!
Irina, 32 years old.
The problem of adenoids among children is not so rare. Unfortunately, my son and I also had to face this illness. It all started when the child began to snore during sleep and began breathing through his mouth more and more often. She made the diagnosis of adenoids herself, since she is a pediatrician by training. And I immediately gave preference to Sinupret! Firstly, the drug is harmless, since it is of plant origin, and secondly, its effectiveness has been tested by hundreds of small patients. Spend no money on this medicine; you will see an improvement within a few days of starting use.
Reviews from experts
Tonsilgon is a powerful new generation antiseptic and many doctors prefer it in the treatment of bacterial and viral infections of the upper respiratory tract.
In the treatment of adenoids, otolaryngologists use this drug as an adjunct that enhances the effect of basic drugs and prevents the further spread of pathogenic microflora.
Of course, it is simply impossible to cure adenoids, and even more so at an advanced stage, with Tonsilgon alone. And this opinion is shared by most ENT specialists.
It is quite difficult to cure this pathology and this will require not only a long time, but also active drug therapy with the possible addition of physical therapy.
Quite often, doctors prescribe inhalation procedures with Tonsilgon to their young patients with adenoids.
And this treatment effect has a positive dynamic: the cough is eliminated, the amount of purulent secretion from the nasal passages is reduced, and as a result, nasal breathing is normalized.
But this effect is often short-lived, and it must be secured with anti-inflammatory, vasoconstrictor and immunomodulatory drugs.
Release form and composition
Sinupret for adenoids in children can be used in two available forms - tablets and drops for oral administration.
Herbal components of the medicine help with adenoids:
- Gentian root;
- Primrose flowers;
- Sorrel grass;
- Elder flowers;
- Verbena herb.
You can choose Sinupret forte or Sinupret. The first drug is a more powerful analogue of the second due to the high concentration of active ingredients. To treat with Sinupret Forte, you will need fewer tablets or drops than with a regular drug.
Many are also concerned about the question: “What to choose: Sinupret or Tonsilgon?” Tonsilgon is also a herbal preparation that has a different composition from Sinupret:
- chamomile flowers,
- horsetail,
- yarrow grass,
- dandelion,
- Oak bark,
- marshmallow root,
- walnut leaves.
This composition of the drug indicates that it belongs to the activators of immune function. Active components reduce the severity of the inflammatory process in the tonsils, promote an increase in the body's natural defenses, and remove mucus. The herbal preparations included in the composition have antibacterial, antiviral, antiulcer, and antispasmodic activity.
Tonsilgon, unlike Sinupret, is indicated for inflammatory processes in the tonsils. The cost of the drug is 350-400 rubles, which is equivalent to the cost of Sinupret.
Sinupret will be more preferable if adenoids develop against the background of chronic, often recurrent inflammatory processes in the nasal cavity or paranasal sinuses.
Also, if a child cannot tolerate some of the components of Tonsilgon, Sinupret is suitable because, having a similar effect, it consists of other components.

Sinupret treatment regimen for adenoids
The dragee must be washed down with water - it is not advisable to chew it
For many years, a homeopathic remedy has been actively used in the treatment of diseases of the ENT organs according to a regimen selected by a doctor.

Patients leave positive reviews about the drug, since when used correctly it gives good results.
Drops
Sinupret in the form of drops must be dissolved in drinking water before use. Take the medicine only in this form. The dosage of the medication is selected depending on the age of the patient:
- Children from 2 to 6 years old. It is necessary to give the child 15 ml of the drug 3 times a day.
- Adults. Patients are given 1 tbsp. l. 3 times a day.
Patients must be treated in this way for a two-week period. If during this time the drug does not give any result, then additional consultation with the doctor who prescribed it will be required.
The medicine can be prescribed to pregnant women if they have indications for it. During lactation, such therapy is unacceptable.
Dragee
The drug Sinupret is also presented in the form of pills. They must be taken before meals. Take the drug with a sufficient amount of water.
Important! It is undesirable to chew the pills, as this negatively affects the effectiveness of the treatment course.
The dosage of the drug may be as follows:

- Adults. The permissible dose is 2 tablets, which must be taken 3 times a day.
The duration of therapy with Sinupret is determined by a specialist. He must take into account the severity of the pathology and the stage of its development. On average, therapy in adults and children takes up to 2 weeks.
Operating principle
With adenoiditis, all the same properties of plant extracts remain relevant as with other diseases:
- Gentian root. Gentian is a perennial medicinal plant that was known to ancient healers. Its properties are due to the presence of bitter substances in its composition. They are so highly valued for their anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, antipyretic properties. In folk medicine, parts of the gentian plant were used to treat cough, fever, cramps, and diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The root of the plant contains two active substances: amarogentin and gentiopicrin. They help fight allergic damage to the tonsils, accelerate the regeneration of the mucous membrane when it is damaged;
- Primrose flowers. It is also a perennial plant, the flowers and leaves of which are especially valuable substrates. Large amounts of ascorbic acid, manganese, carotene, and natural antioxidants are found in parts of the plant’s body. It has gained the greatest popularity in the treatment of bronchitis and bronchial asthma; it also copes well with bronchitis and tracheitis, providing an expectorant effect. Antioxidants help the body fight free radicals and are an important component for cell growth and development. Therefore, their presence in Sinupret helps remove mucus, reduces irritation of the tonsils, and promotes their healing;
- Sorrel grass. Sorrel is a well-known plant in our country, as it is actively used for culinary purposes. It contains a huge amount of vitamin C, which activates the immune system. The medicinal properties don't stop there. Sorrel herb reduces the severity of the inflammatory process, relieves pain, and reduces the activity of toxic substances. The antioxidants included in the composition, led by vitamin E, help maintain healthy cells intact and neutralize the effects of carcinogens;
- Elderberry flowers. Many people think that this is a useless wild plant that gathers a lot of ants and aphids around it. But in fact, elderberry flowers contain components important for the treatment of adenoiditis: rutin, essential oils, acids, glycosides. Elderberry flowers have an anti-inflammatory effect and weakly disinfect the site of exposure. Traditional recipes recommend using the drug to treat inflammatory processes in the oropharynx and respiratory tract. Rutin, which is part of the composition, improves blood supply to the lymphoid tissue of the nasopharynx, reduces inflammation, and has an antioxidant effect;
- Verbena herb. The greatest effectiveness of the drug was found in eliminating conditions such as weakness, lethargy, headaches, and fever. Diaphoretic and antipyretic effects in acute adenoiditis help improve the patient's condition. Verbena helps fight bronchial diseases if their infection is associated with the adenoids - Sinupret will cope with both problems thanks to this component.
Together, all components help reduce the viscosity of sputum and its removal, reducing the severity of the inflammatory process.
Reviews about the drug also demonstrate its high effectiveness. Can be used by adults and children, pregnant and lactating women - important advantages of Sinupret. It is completely safe and rarely causes any side effects. The cost of the drug fully corresponds to the quality guaranteed by the manufacturer - the company Bionorica, Germany.
Why do children have a cough with adenoids?
With enlarged adenoids, a cough appears due to regular stimulation of the nerve fibers of the nasopharyngeal area. Experts call this cough a reflex; it is one of the main signs of adenoid vegetations (enlargement). Obsessive coughing usually appears with grade 2 and 3 adenoids.
What causes the cough?
- A long-term inflammatory process that forms in the tissues of the nasopharyngeal area.
- Rapid enlargement of adenoids.
- The nasal passages are blocked by overgrown tissue.
- Stagnation of mucous mass and pus in the nasopharynx.
- Increased sputum discharge. This process can cause inflammation, the main symptom of which is a wet cough.
REFERENCE ! Adenoid cough bothers you mainly at night (it prevents you from falling asleep, it wakes you up). This is due to the fact that during sleep the body assumes a horizontal position, in which very strong irritation of the posterior wall of the nasopharynx occurs.
Instructions for use for children and adults
The medicine is available in two forms - drops for oral use and tablets. Tablets can be given to children after 2 years of age, and drops can be given even to infants. Dosages:
- Adults: 2 tablets or 50 drops three times a day;
- School-age children: 1 tablet or 25 drops three times a day;
- Children from 1 to 6 years: 15 drops three times a day;
- Infants up to one year: 10 drops three times a day.
Children over 2 years of age should be given tablets in the dosage prescribed by the doctor. According to the instructions, oral solution is recommended for children up to 6 years of age.
Please note that Sinupret Drops can also be used for inhalation.
Bionorica drops
ATTENTION!!! THE PROPOSED TREATMENT HELPS IN OUR CASE!! DO NOT SELF-MEDICATE OR TAKE ANY MEDICATION FOR YOUR CHILD ONLY AFTER PRESCRIPTION BY A PEDIATRIC OR SPECIALIST DOCTOR!!!
Probably any mother of a child, especially if this child is in kindergarten, will tell you a bunch of stories about how her child is sick after visiting kindergarten, that “snot” does not give rest, especially during the season of respiratory infections, about what “adenoids” are and how to deal with them fight.
I'm one of those moms!
We spent the first year of kindergarten practically at home, either I was on sick leave or my grandmother stayed with her daughter. Constant sniffles, coughs, colds, and acute respiratory viral infections tormented us. The result is overgrown adenoid tissue in the child.
Then we started visiting ENT doctors.
The first head of the ENT department immediately said that do not suffer and remove the adenoids. You still have to delete it. At the same time, he yelled at the little one when she wouldn’t let herself look. In the end, we ran away from this doctor. At that time we were 3 years old.
The 2nd ENT doctor looked at our nasopharynx and said that we have grade 1-2 adenoids. Nothing critical, and she said that the operation need not be done. Just get fewer colds, and the adenoids themselves will shrink.
Then there were several more doctors and several opinions.
I will say right away that I am against surgery for a child, and I consider the removal of adenoids only a last resort when they have grown so large that they do not allow the child to breathe, the septum is bent, hearing is impaired or the facial structure is deformed. These are serious indications for surgery!
At that time we did not have such evidence.
We went through 4-5 ENT doctors until we found one who would really help and be able to find an approach to the child. Our daughter is a terrible screamer and does not allow herself to be manipulated.
At the age of 4, we went to see a wonderful doctor, a woman in our city who works in the inpatient ENT department, and who was the only one who wrote us a treatment that really began to help.
By the way, in addition to adenoiditis, we now have another constant problem in the autumn-spring period - nasopharyngitis, or also called rhinopharyngitis. This is when snot does not flow from the nose, but flows down the back wall of the nasopharynx, while the throat is irritated and an annoying dry or wet cough appears, which cannot be treated with any expectorants.
In this case, you just need to treat your nose!!!!
And it was this same ENT doctor who prescribed us the wonderful SINUPRET drops.
Drops are intended for the treatment of acute and chronic sinusitis.
Production - Germany.
The price is not very cheap - in different places the price is 450-550 rubles.
Volume: 100 ml.
The drops have a good shelf life of 3 years.
COMPOUND:
Active ingredients: gentian root (Gentiana lutea) 0.2 g; primrose flowers (Primula veris) 0.6 g; sorrel grass (Rumex acetosa) 0.6 g; elder flowers (Sambucus nigra) 0.6 g; verbena grass (Verbena officinalis) 0.6 g; ethanol: 16.0 – 19.0% (v/v)
As you can see, the drug is completely of plant origin. It is practically harmless and can be used from 2 years of age.
PROPERTIES OF SINUPRET:
Sinupret has secretolytic, secretomotor, anti-inflammatory, decongestant, moderate antibacterial, antiviral effects. Promotes the outflow of exudate from the paranasal sinuses and upper respiratory tract, preventing the development of complications.
MODE OF APPLICATION:
Inside, after diluting it in a small amount of water. Adults: 50 drops 3 times a day. School-age children: 25 drops 3 times a day. Children from 2 to 6 years: 15 drops 3 times a day.
The course of treatment is 7-14 days.
The doctor prescribed us to take Sinupret for a course of 1 month.
Although the drug is considered relatively safe, there are still contraindications. This may be individual intolerance to the components of the drug. It is not allowed for children under 2 years of age, and due to the presence of ethanol, it is not used for persons who have been treated for alcoholism.
And they are taken with caution, only with a doctor’s prescription for epilepsy, liver diseases, injuries and brain diseases.
The drops are in a dark brown bottle.
Information on the drug is both in the instructions and on the bottle of the drug itself.
The color of the drops is yellowish-brown and the smell is very alcoholic and bitter.
It can be a lot of work for a child to cram this in. If he swallows the first time, then the second time he will not open his mouth under any persuasion.
At first we cheated and dropped drops into tea or compote so that it wouldn’t smell so strongly of medicine. But the taste of alcohol still remains. Now my daughter is 5 years old, and she drinks the drug obediently from her personalized spoon. I only dilute it in water.
Here in the photo the drug is not diluted - it’s exactly 15 drops.
The drops are fed through a special restrictor, through which excess amounts of the drug will not spill out.
SO!!! HOW WE TREATED NASOPHARINGITIS AND CHRONIC RHINITIS IN A CHILD.
1. You need to instill vasoconstrictor drops to help your nose breathe easier and to improve the outflow of mucus. We were prescribed OTRIVIN for children. But I found a budget replacement for it, and now I’m buying children’s drops FOR NOS.
It costs several times less, about 80 rubles, and has the same active ingredient as in Otrivin - xylometazoline. And the efficiency is no worse. Drop in and wait 3-5 minutes. Then blow your nose well.
Apply 7-10 days 3 times a day
2. In order to remove mucus that accumulated in the nose and then flowed down the throat, we were prescribed PROTARGOL. It dries out the mucous membrane and kills germs. It is cheap and often made by pharmacies themselves. I buy it for around 30 rubles. We bury it only when the nose is clear of mucus. Then the child needs to lie down for a few minutes so that the drug does not leak out.
In some cases, we were also prescribed rhinofluimucil.
3. If the snot is green and a bacterial infection is attached, then we were also prescribed the drug ISOFRA OR POLIDEXA. These are nasal drops with antibiotics, quite expensive. About 400-500 rubles. Can be used for no more than 7 days. They have a good effect on prolonged rhinitis and pharyngitis.
4. And take SINUPRET 3 times a day, 15 drops. When the child is in kindergarten I give it 2 times a day.
5. In addition to all this, the doctor prescribed us an antiallergic drug in order to relieve swelling of the nose.
it can be simple loratidine, or tavegil. I gave 1/2 tablet before bed.
6. To treat a throat with nasopharyngitis, I give Lysobact to dissolve at least 3 times a day.
This is the treatment that our ENT doctor prescribed to us in parallel with Sinupret. And when we have seasonal exacerbations and our nose runs again, we no longer go to her, but we ourselves are treated according to the same scheme.
I tried giving Sinupret several times for less than a month, but the runny nose quickly returned as soon as someone else’s sick child stood near us.
Then they resumed taking it and drank as the doctor prescribed for exactly a month.
Then we had enough for the fall-winter not to suffer from a lingering runny nose.
Before this, it got to the point where my daughter simply couldn’t breathe through her nose at night and slept with her mouth open, and in addition she was sniffling and snoring.
After treatment this went away.
By the way, the drug is economical. One course of treatment per month and half the bottle still remains.
Recently my daughter and I went to see our doctor again, and she was on vacation. And we ended up again with that manager who, when we were three years old, yelled at us and insisted on an operation.
Looking at our swollen nose, he said that we already have grade 2-3 adenoids and need to be removed urgently.
He prescribed treatment to relieve inflammation, and then told them to come to him.
In addition to the treatment, I myself added Sinpret and we drank it again for a month.
To tell you the truth, in that hospital they cut out the child’s adenoids alive, they take the child away from the mother, and they do everything without you. As a friend who had it removed there said, they simply put ice caine into the nose and cut off the adenoid tissue with a special knife.
I don’t want this for my child, she will have psychological trauma for life and fear of doctors for the rest of her life.
In addition, the operation is performed in another hospital under general anesthesia, I think this is a more acceptable option, but the other side of the coin is that any anesthesia is a blow to the heart and a burden on the child’s body.
Therefore, I try my best and delay the moment so as not to have surgery.
I never went to the doctor for this.
After treatment, 3 months have already passed, and during this time there was no snot once, and the child began to breathe through his nose day and night. In kindergarten now we practically don’t get sick.
By the way, those friends whose children had their adenoids removed returned to the ENT doctor with the same snot problem.
So I'll wait for now. Moreover, I’m going to take my child to the sea to improve his health.
And then we'll see further.

"Sinupret" for adenoids in children: all about the medicine
The topic of the article is “Sinupret” for adenoids in children . Indeed, although this popular drug is not a nasal spray, it is produced for tablets, dragees or in the form of syrups, but it has many advantages. Let's take a closer look at its main, most valuable quality, that is, what makes Sinupret safe - a natural phytoherbal, medicinal herbarium.
Side effects
According to reviews, Sinupret for adenoids in children is usually well tolerated by weakened organisms. But still, the possibility of developing some side effects cannot be completely excluded. So, during treatment the baby may experience the following problems:
- feeling of nausea;
- pain in the stomach;
- skin hyperemia;
- severe itching;
- rashes;
- dyspnea;
- swelling.
If the parents gave the child too large a dose of the drug, all the described reactions can manifest themselves quite strongly. In case of an overdose of drops, even poisoning is possible. So do not deviate from the instructions for use. "Sinupret" for children must be used with precise dosage. Remember that the consequences may be unpredictable.
Medicinal and botanical composition in the therapeutic action of "Sinupret"
The basis of the drug is a unique, environmentally friendly medicinal list. It includes plants with effective clinical medicinal properties, such as:
- Yellow gentian root . 1 gram of dragee (Sinupret package of 50 granules) contains 6 mg of herbal component. In a drop solution (in a 50 or 100 ml bottle of Sinupret syrup), the powdered root of the plant is 2 mg.
Since ancient times, this medicinal plant, especially its root part, has been used in the treatment of colds: compresses on a sore throat, breathing over a medicinal decoction, rinsing the mouth for sore throats, inflamed palatine tonsils (adenoids). Gentian – perfectly relieves inflammation in the nasopharyngeal and upper respiratory sectors (bronchi, upper lobes of the lungs). Cough, an accompanying constant symptom of bronchitis, pleurisy, adenoiditis, goes away literally within a few minutes. Children begin to breathe freely and deeply with their entire chest. The general condition of sick children is greatly improved, because gentian dynamically reduces the temperature. The medicinal plant provides medicinal and healing properties, the presence in it of bio-natural microelements:
- Genciopicrine;
- Amarogentina;
- Gentian;
- A group of bitter glycosides - arbutin, rutin, carotenoid, xanthine, flavone. These substances have an active anti-inflammatory, astringent, mucolytic effect.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
- Primrose inflorescences in “Sinupret” for adenoids in children. Repeating the form of the previous context:
- 1 gram volume of Sinupret dragee (packed in 50 pieces) contains 18 mg of this herbal ingredient;
- In a syrup solution (in a 50 or 100 ml Sinupret bottle), heat-treated calyxes of primrose inflorescences (in powder form) contain 6 mg.
The plant is famous for its exceptional healing properties. Homeopathy and traditional medicine widely use primrose in the preparation of complex remedies. The traditional medical clinic emphasizes that the biochemical natural composition of the plant is rich in flavonoids, carotenes, saponins, essential oils, as well as an abundant spectrum of provitamins “A”, “C”, “E”. Along with the incoming list of these organic substances, the plant contains manganese salts, iron, potassium, and sodium.
Primrose intensively strengthens the children's immune system, “undermined” by adenoidal harmful vegetation. A stable remission of immune defense, reproduction, and restoration of lympho/leukocyte homeostasis are achieved. There is obvious progress in relieving hyperemia in the diseased nasopharynx (swelling, pastiness of mucous surfaces). The powdered primrose component surprisingly quickly enhances the mucolytic effects (liquefies, removes viscous secretory mucus). In addition, we must not forget that primrose vigorously and stably necrotizes pathogenic microflora in diseased tonsils.
- Sorrel in Sinupret. Contents in the finished medicine:
- The same ratio as primrose (according to the first subparagraph);
- The same dosage volume as the previous plant representative of the medicinal flora - primrose.
Since ancient times, sour broad-leaved sorrel has been used not only as a necessary vitamin and vegetable component in cooking (in borscht, soups, salads). Sorrel, in addition to its taste, has remarkable healing and medicinal properties. Sorrel contains a powerful anti-inflammatory factor - natural antioxidant phenols. It is thanks to them that sorrel is indispensable in the treatment of colds, sinusitis, rhinitis, and adenoiditis. Everyone knows that the leaves, stems, and roots of the plant are rich in vitamin C. Therefore, the introduction of sorrel into the composition of homeopathic remedies provides a potent vitamin supplement to the child’s body (weakened by prolonged respiration, adenoid invasion). Sorrel perfectly relieves chronic congestion in nasal adenoids and exhibits a vasoconstrictor effect in the nasal passages.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
- VERBENA in Sinupret as a NATURAL ANTIBIOTIC
- 1) and 2). At these points, verbena (in the pharmacy "Sinupret") is represented by a quantitative parameter, like primrose and sorrel.
In the general Sinupret team, this medicinal plant, verbena, is natural, the most natural and not a chemicalized antibiotic. It is not inferior in its antimicrobial and antibacterial properties to artificial synthetic antibiotics. This is a very important clinical indicator. Thus, frequent use, as a preventive measure, of antibiotic therapy for adenoiditis in children, causes the most unpleasant symptoms in young patients:
- “Penicillin” pathological dermatoses – “Hives”, skin, painful rashes (“Thrush”, candidiasis) in the mouth, on the genitals;
- Drug antibiotic dysbiosis in the large/small intestine;
- Violation of the percentage balance of blood and white cells in the blood;
- The vital level of hemoglobulin in the blood formula decreases tenfold.
Verbena completely lacks such manifestations. Along with identical medicinal, antibiotic, and anti-cold properties, like verbena, the elderberry (flowers only), which is included in Sinupret for adenoids in children, has the same properties.
The photo shows luxurious snow-white umbrellas of elderberry (black)
Tree-like spreading elderberry bushes are known to many as a home decoration and garden interior. But not everyone is familiar with the anti-influenza, provorespiratory abilities of beautiful flowers. “Sinupret” allowed elderberry to fully reveal and declare its medicinal qualities. Children's adenoiditis is effectively treated with elderberry decoctions and in addition, as in Sinupret. In the form of self-prepared decoctions for rinsing, inhalation, and instillation.
Topic: How we cured my daughter’s adenoids
In the next topic, Fantanella wrote that her son was diagnosed with adenoids. My eldest daughter also suffered for a long time with adenoids, it had already reached the point that the child was breathing through his mouth even during the day, and began to hear poorly. The doctor insisted on surgery. But I was categorically against coordinated measures and I decided to start treatment myself, with the help of the Internet, as well as knowledge of homeopathy and medicine. So... let's start with the fact that the proliferation of adenoids has three degrees: I DEGREE - during the day the child breathes quite freely, his mouth is closed, and during sleep, when the volume of the adenoids increases in a horizontal position of the body, it becomes harder for him to breathe, snoring appears. II - III DEGREE of growth: the choanae are half or completely covered (these are the posterior parts of the nose, the openings connecting the nasal cavities with the nasal part of the pharynx), children often snore in their sleep and are forced to breathe through their mouths around the clock. Inflammation of the adenoids is called adenoiditis. It can be acute or chronic. Inflamed adenoids can cause frequent acute respiratory infections, otitis, prolonged runny nose, inflammation of the paranasal sinuses, etc. Lack of nasal breathing can negatively affect the condition of the tonsils and lower respiratory tract. Scheme of complex treatment of enlarged adenoids and adenoiditis. 1.Instillation of vasoconstrictor drops into the nose (eg Nazivin) During the first 7 - 10 days, use vasoconstrictor drops to reduce the volume of the nasal turbinates, improve breathing and facilitate subsequent rinsing of the nose. 2. Rinse the nasal cavity. Choose the option that is convenient for you. Option No. 1: insert the tip of the syringe into one half of the nose, to a depth of approximately 0.5 - 1 cm and point perpendicular to the face. The head should be tilted forward at an angle of approximately 45 degrees. Pour in small portions, gradually increasing the strength of the stream; after 3-5 times, clean your nose one half at a time and continue rinsing again. At the moment of infusion of the solution, you need to hold your breath. For a small child, this washing can be done by placing him on his tummy. Do not direct the first portions of the solution to the bridge of the nose - a short-term burning sensation may occur due to the solution entering the upper parts of the nose, where the sensitive, olfactory area is located. Option No. 2: through a tube with a diameter of 5 -10 mm and a length of 15 - 20 cm, you need to suck in the liquid with your nose and, if it gets into your mouth, spit it out. Head position - as in option No. 1. This option is suitable for older children. Option No. 3: the solution is poured into the palm and drawn in with the nose, the position of the head is as in option No. 1. This option is suitable for older children. Solutions for washing. Select one or two from the list, rinse your nose, alternating them, for example, one in the morning, the other in the evening. These plants or drugs can be used both for enlarged adenoids and for their inflammation. Infusion of horsetail (pour 1 teaspoon of horsetail with a glass of boiling water, leave for 5 minutes, cool). A decoction of oak bark, eucalyptus, St. John's wort (3 - 6 g of leaves per 200 ml of water). St. John's wort infusion. Sea salt (1/2 tsp per 1 cup of water). Can be used for adenoiditis.

So I just dripped her an infusion of horsetail. Of all the proposed medications, it is the most effective. It has been dripping for a very long time. 3. Injection of medications into the nose. 20 - 30 minutes after washing, drop 4 - 6 - 8 (depending on age) drops of fresh red beet juice, or lay the wicks for 10 - 15 - 20 minutes (you need to tilt your head back a little). Or you can use the following mixture: red beet juice + onion juice + aloe (or Kalanchoe) juice + honey, all in equal parts. It can be buried and wicks inserted. Pure red beet juice or a mixture used 2 times a day can be alternated with a steam of celandine herb. Preparation of steam: 1 tbsp. spoon per glass of boiling water.

An infusion of green walnut skin, 3-4 drops, up to 4 times a day, has a good effect (preparation of the infusion: pour cold water over the skin of chopped green walnuts, bring to a boil and leave for an hour, strain). From pharmaceutical drugs, you can use one or two drugs from the list: protargol 1 - 2%, collargol 1 - 3%, dioxidin diluted in half with saline, rhinosept, pinosol, sofradex, albucid, tea tree oil. I chose Protargol. Thus, I alternated Horsetail throughout the day with Protargol. A total of 5-6 drops per day. 3 times a day, for several weeks, the child should breathe over the steam of a decoction of budra ivy (preparation of the decoction: pour 15 g of the herb for 1-2 hours with a glass of cold water, then boil for half an hour over low heat, strain and store in the refrigerator for no more than 2 days .

My daughter didn’t like inhalation either, we did it a couple of times. Mainly with tea tree. Before going to bed, I added tea tree to the aroma maker, sometimes eucalyptus. These vapors were used for dashal child. 5. General treatment. In parallel with local treatment, general treatment can be carried out. For adenoids, you can take drops from phytotherapists Zubitsky (Kiev) - “Trizub” (5 drops each, dissolved in 30 g. warm water, 3 times a day, 30 minutes before meals and the fourth time before bedtime, as well as 1 drop in each half of the nose, 1 time a day).

From 7 to 14 days. It is also advisable to take multivitamins with microelements (especially vitamin C and the trace element selenium), spirulina, immunal (echinacea tincture). As always, fruits and vegetables are healthy. In some cases, agents that stimulate one’s defenses are prescribed: apilak, aloe extract, FIBS. Course 10 - 15 days. Antibiotics and sulfonamides are prescribed only in acute cases of adenoiditis, which, by the way, occurs in isolation quite rarely, most often against the background of acute respiratory infections or influenza. In these cases, the doctor must decide whether or not to use these drugs. We used vitamins and antihistamines (10 days - Ketotefen) 6. Homeopathic treatment and the use of antihomotoxic drugs. There are quite a few homeopathic medicines under different names that can help with inflammation or enlargement of the adenoids. You just need to specifically ask for medications used for adenoids in homeopathic pharmacies. Use according to the instructions or recommendations of a homeopathic physician. Below is an example of treatment with antihomotoxic drugs from the German company Heel (these are drugs for neutralizing toxins that cause diseases by binding them into non-toxic formations - homotoxins). Since adenoids are a manifestation of lymphatism, long-term therapy under the supervision of a physician is indicated. Lymphomyosot (lymphomyosot) drops, 10 - 15 drops, 2 times a day, course - 1.5 months. Echinacea compositum (echinacea compositum) ampoules. With enlarged adenoids, there is always a chronic focus of infection in them. This drug eliminates inflammation. Use 1 ampoule, 1 time per week, 5 injections, intramuscularly. Traumeel (traumeel) tablets. Used when there is a significant increase in lymphoid tissue. 1 tablet, 2 times a day, 3 weeks. These drugs work quite well on their own, but the effect is better with complex treatment, i.e. applying points of scheme No. 1 - 4. After completing this entire course, my daughter started taking the drug Job-Baby (also homeopathic). Now we no longer take anything except vitamins. Sometimes I wake up at night, it becomes strange that my daughter is breathing calmly and evenly through her nose (ttt)
