The use of chlorophyllipt in the treatment of infants

A natural remedy with potent antibacterial qualities is chlorophyllin. It is frequently used to treat infections and inflammations because it is made from eucalyptus extract. The use of such remedies can raise concerns for parents of young children, particularly in regards to the treatment’s efficacy and safety. For the sake of your child’s wellbeing, it is crucial to comprehend how chlorophyllipt functions and when to use it.

When a baby gets a cold, sore throat, or skin infection, many parents resort to chlorophylliptin. Those searching for natural alternatives to synthetic medications find it appealing due to its natural composition. But as with any treatment, it’s critical to understand the proper dosage, how to use it, and any possible risks.

This article will discuss the various conditions that chlorophyllipt can help with, how it can be used to treat infants, and what precautions parents should take. You can make the best decisions for your child’s health if you are knowledgeable.

Features of the drug

In pharmacies you can find several dosage forms of "Chlorophyllipt", but only two of them are suitable for infants. The first is an alcohol solution with a concentration of 1%, which is presented in bottles with a capacity of 25-100 ml. Such a medicine is transparent and has a green color. The second form of the drug, which is also often prescribed to infants, is a 2% oil-based solution. Such "Chlorophyllipt" is packaged in bottles of 20-30 ml, is also green and smells like eucalyptus. The smell of the drug is due to its main ingredient – an extract of eucalyptus globular, obtained from its leaves. In addition to it, the oil solution contains only vegetable oil, which is usually sunflower. The same hood is the main ingredient of an alcohol solution, and an auxiliary substance in such a medicine, as the name understands, is represented by 96%ethyl alcohol. Due to the presence of chlorophylls and other substances in the extract, "Chlorophyllipt" is able to destroy pathogenic microbes (especially staphylococcus), which is what doctors have been using for many years.

When to prescribe?

The treatment of the umbilical wound in newborns is one of the frequent uses of "Chlorophyllipt." This product stands out from other antiseptics and antibacterial medications due to its antimicrobial action, lack of skin staining after lubrication, and safety for infants. An alcohol solution is used to lubricate the navel. It can also be used to treat a baby’s skin with prickly heat after a mosquito bite, in case of scratches or abrasions.

• for treating the skin if it is burned or the wound does not heal for a long time;
• for instillation into the nose for colds and runny nose;
• for lubricating the throat and inhalation if the baby has a sore throat or cough;
• for processing the oral cavity for stomatitis;
• for oral administration for staphylococcus in the intestines.

A baby younger than a year old should get the oil solution from the doctor for all of these indications. Giving the drug to a baby to drink or putting it in your nose on your own is not acceptable.

Instructions for use

The rationale behind a prescription for "Chlorophyllipt" determines how the medication should be used.

• If the product is indicated for treating the umbilical wound, it is applied twice a day – first in the morning, when performing hygiene procedures, and the second time in the evening, after bathing the baby. Before lubricating the navel with an alcohol solution, it is treated with hydrogen peroxide to remove crusts. Then, using a cotton swab, apply "Chlorophyllipt" to the wound and let it dry a little.
• If the baby has prickly heat, then the affected areas are wiped with a cotton pad soaked in an alcohol solution. Such treatment is carried out 2 to 4 times a day, diluting "Chlorophyllipt" before each procedure with ordinary water or saline.
• In case of scratches and other minor skin damage, as well as insect bites, it is necessary to apply alcohol-based Chlorophyllipt pointwise to the affected areas. The treatment is performed several times a day until the skin heals.
• When using the medicine in the nose, the nasal passages are first cleaned, for example, using an aspirator or instilling saline. Then one drop of oil-based Chlorophyllipt is administered into each nostril as often as prescribed by the ENT doctor.

• If the baby has a sore throat or other throat lesion, it is recommended to moisten a cotton swab with Chlorophyllipt in oil and treat the tonsils 2 times a day. If it is impossible to carry out such a manipulation, which usually requires two adults at once, you can drip a few drops of the solution into the baby"s mouth, trying to get it on the back of the tongue.
• In case of oral thrush or gingivitis, the oil solution is applied to a gauze pad or cotton swab, after which the mucous membrane is locally lubricated (only the inflamed areas). If the doctor has prescribed taking Chlorophyllipt internally, the medicine is diluted with mother"s milk or water and given to the baby in the dosage determined by the specialist for a particular small patient. In some cases, enemas are also used.

When treating infants, chlorophyllin is a good natural remedy, especially for minor infections and skin conditions. It is a good choice for parents searching for gentle treatments because of its antibacterial qualities, which are derived from eucalyptus leaves.

But, it’s imperative to use chlorophyllipt cautiously, especially in young children. Before beginning any treatment, always get advice from a pediatrician because every baby responds differently to different treatments. This is crucial for infants who are more likely to have allergies.

Using Chlorophyllipt responsibly and under medical supervision can make it a useful addition to your baby’s daily care regimen. To guarantee your child’s safety and wellbeing, adhere to the suggested dosage and application techniques.
