How Bongel Oral Gel 0.01%+8.714% works

Choline salicylate relieves pain by inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis and reduces fever by acting on the hypothalamus heat-regulating center. It also inhibits the generation of impulses through the inhibition of cyclooxygenase enzyme (COX) , .

Cyclooxygenase is involved in the production of prostaglandins, in response to injury and after various other stimuli. The prostaglandins promote pain, swelling, and inflammation. The choline salicylate decreases inflammation and pain by reducing the production of these prostaglandins in the area of the mouth it is applied to .

Dosage

Bongel Oral Gel 0.01%+8.714% dosage

Adult: Wash hand, apply ½ inch of gel on to the sore area. This can be repeated after every 3 hour.

Side Effects

Hypersensitivity reactions, skin eruptions, Paroxysmal bronchospasm; mild chronic salicylate intoxication.

Toxicity

LD50, oral in mouse: 2690mg/kg . Ld50, subcutaneous in mouse: 1gm/kg .

Interferes with thyroid function test .

Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, fatigue, hypersensitivity reactions, skin eruptions, hemolytic anemia, weakness, dyspnoea; local irritation (rectally); Reye's syndrome.

Potentially Fatal: Paroxysmal bronchospasm; hepatotoxicity; renal impairment/failure; thrombocytopenia, iron-deficiency anemia, occult bleeding, leukopenia; mild chronic salicylate intoxication .

Salicylate poisoning is normally associated with plasma concentrations >350 mg/L (2.5 mmol/L). Most adult deaths due to salicylate poisoning occur in patients whose serum concentrations of salicylate are over 700 mg/L (5.1 mmol/L). Single doses of less than 100 mg/kg are very unlikely to lead to serious poisoning. Patients should be provided with supportive therapy or treatment for salicylate poisoning as necessary. This may include treatment like activated charcoal, urinary alkalinization and, in severe cases, hemodialysis .

Precaution

Peptic ulcers, errosive gastritis; asthma, allergic disorders; renal and hepatic impairment; dehydrated patients; uncontrolled hypertension; elderly.

Interaction

Increased toxicity of warfarin. Antacids may reduce salicylate effects. Increased risk of GI bleeding when used with corticosteroids.

Volume of Distribution

0.15 L/kg (salicylate), and widely distributed throughout extracellular water and most tissues

Elimination Route

Onset: 1-2 hr after ingestion

In the oral form, choline salicylate is absorbed across the buccal mucosa. There is a need for caution not to exceed the stated dose and monitor for any signs of suggested salicylism, especially when this drug is used for infants .

In one study, it was found that this drug was more rapidly absorbed than ASA (absorption t1/2 = 0.1 vs 0.36 h) .

Half Life

The plasma half-life of salicylic acid is 2-4 hours . Up to 15 – 30 h with larger doses due to saturation of liver metabolism capacity .

Elimination Route

Both metabolites of choline salicylate, and a small amount of intact salicylic acid are excreted, primarily in the urine [L1239].
