Interaction with other drugs
If you are taking other medications, then before using Decamevit (dragees), you should consult your doctor and ask about their compatibility.
This remedy is not recommended to be taken together with similar vitamin preparations, as overdose symptoms may occur.
Vitamins A and E enhance each other's effects. The first reduces the anti-inflammatory effect of glucocorticoids. Vitamin A should not be taken together with nitrites and cholestyramine, as these substances impair the absorption of retinol.
Vitamin A is not used together with other retinoids, since this scheme of substance use is toxic.
Products containing iron can reduce the effectiveness of vitamin E. For this reason, α-tocopherol acetate is not prescribed together with drugs containing iron and silver and characterized by an alkaline environment. You cannot combine indirect anticoagulants with vitamin E. Alpha tocopherol acetate increases the effectiveness of non-steroidal and steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Ascorbic acid increases the effect of sulfonamides and penicillin. Helps increase iron absorption. Reduces the effect of indirect anticoagulants and heparin. The absorption of vitamin C is reduced when using oral contraceptives.
Thiamine reduces the effect of levodopa, prevents and reduces toxic reactions that occur when using isoniazid and other anti-tuberculosis medications. Vitamin B6, acting on polarization in the area of neuromuscular synapses, reduces curare-like properties.
Vitamin B9 reduces the concentration of phenytoin in plasma. Folic acid in combination with antiepileptic drugs may affect the clinical effectiveness of the latter. They, in turn, reduce the effect of vitamin B9 on the body.
Riboflavin is not recommended for use with streptomycin. It reduces the effectiveness of antibacterial drugs. Tricyclic antidepressants, as well as amitriptyline and imipramine, suppress the metabolism of riboflavin, to a greater extent this manifests itself in the tissues of the heart.
Drug interactions
These vitamins should not be taken in combination with other multivitamin preparations, as this may lead to an overdose of the active ingredients.
You cannot combine vitamin A with retinoids - this combination is toxic.
Vitamins A and E are synergists (strengthen their mutual effect). Retinol reduces the effectiveness of glucocorticoids. Vitamin C enhances the effect of penicillin and sulfonamides, increases iron absorption, and reduces the effectiveness of heparin. When vitamin C is prescribed simultaneously with oral contraceptives, its absorption is reduced.
Iron supplements reduce the effectiveness of vitamin E, so it should not be prescribed together with silver, iron supplements, alkaline agents, or indirect anticoagulants.
Riboflavin should not be prescribed with Streptomycin. In addition, it reduces the effect of antibacterial drugs (Erythromycin, Oxytetracycline, Tetracycline and Doxycycline).

In general, the drug is effective and easy to use, however, unfortunately, there are no exact analogues of Decamine in the Russian Federation, so patients have to look for substitutes that are similar in pharmacological action.
How to apply it correctly?
The medicine is intended for local use. Treatment of oral candidiasis in adults involves applying ointment to the mucous membrane affected by the disease. Do not worry that the medicine may enter the digestive tract in small quantities. This is not at all dangerous to health.
According to the instructions, decamin ointment can be used for compresses. In normal use, the product is applied to the oral mucosa up to three times a day. Thanks to the anti-inflammatory and fungicidal effect, the unpleasant symptoms of fungal infection (pain, burning, itching) pass quickly enough. In addition to eliminating the signs of the disease themselves, the causes of its development should also be eliminated.
In complex therapy, he recommends sanitation of the oral cavity, using solutions of boric acid and sodium bicarbonate for daily rinsing.
Interaction
The use of the drug with other drugs is permissible: there is no evidence of a weakening of its medicinal qualities in a complex effect.
Numerous reviews about the high efficiency, ease of use of both dosage forms of the drug, affordable cost and the minimum number of possible side effects make it possible to understand the reason for the popularity of the antifungal drug in question. Combining rapid penetration with almost complete absorption of the active substance by the skin, Decamine has a pronounced effect even on large areas of affected skin.
The minimal number of negative manifestations, even when the drug comes into contact with healthy skin, is noted by many as an important advantage of the drug.
The effect of the ointment is inactivated by anionic detergents, for example, ordinary soaps.
Terms of use
Since this antifungal agent is available in the form of an ointment, it is intended for external use. If the product gets inside the human body, there is no need to worry, because the ointment does not cause any harm. Thanks to the action of the main substance, dequalinium chloride, the ointment has a hemostatic effect, inhibits the vital activity of bacteria and treats inflammation.
If the skin is affected, the ointment is applied in a thin layer to the affected areas three times a day. At certain stages of the disease, ointment compresses are used, which are applied to the affected areas of the body. The duration of the course of treatment is determined by the doctor. On average, the recovery process takes from several days to three weeks.
For thrush and inflammation of the mucous membranes of the nasal cavity and mouth, it is used in the form of caramel. During the day you need to take one or two capsules at intervals of three to five hours. They are placed under the tongue, hidden behind the cheek and held until completely absorbed.
In this case, it is necessary to limit swallowing movements in order to ensure the concentration of the treatment agent, as well as to extend the period of its effect. The parallel use of antibiotics will help enhance the effect of treatment.
Description of the product
Opportunistic microorganisms that live on mucous membranes can, under certain conditions, cause the development of a number of diseases. When acidity in the oral cavity increases, fungi of the genus Candida activate their activity and thereby provoke the occurrence of unpleasant symptoms. Special preparations with antifungal properties will help to cope with fungal diseases.
For stomatitis or oral candidiasis, a universal remedy is often used - decamin ointment. The active ingredient is dequalinium chloride, an ammonium compound. The component has a pronounced antifungal and antibacterial effect. Many gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria are sensitive to the substance (when applied topically).
The active component destroys the cell membranes of fungi and bacteria and stops the further spread of infection.
Directions for use and doses
The drug is intended for local use. The dose of the drug and the frequency of its application can be prescribed by a doctor, taking into account the severity of the symptoms of the disease.
In cases where the drug is used for treatment according to the standard regimen, it is consumed one or two caramels every 3 or 5 hours. The drug must be kept in the mouth until completely dissolved.
In severe cases of the disease, it is possible to use the drug every two hours; after the acute symptoms disappear, they switch to the standard dose of the drug.
To achieve the maximum therapeutic effect, before dissolving the caramels, the oral cavity and pharynx must be rinsed with a weak infusion of chamomile, which will make the use of the product more effective.
If any unusual symptoms occur while using the drug, they should be reported to your doctor.
You should not continue treatment if symptoms of hypersensitivity develop, as this will negatively affect your health.

Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Decamevit is a multivitamin preparation with various additives. Its pharmacological properties are due to the complex of active substances included in the tablets. The drug affects many organs and systems of the human body, providing a diverse biological effect.
Vitamin A helps restore the epithelial layer of the skin and activates wound healing.
B vitamins influence metabolism, take part in the formation of red blood cells, regulate the functions of the gastrointestinal tract, cardiovascular system and nervous system.
Vitamin C increases the overall resistance of the body.
Vitamin E protects body cells from the harmful effects of free radicals; it is necessary for the proper development of the nervous, muscular and reproductive systems.
Vitamin P (rutin) takes part in the formation of collagen and activates tissue respiration.
Vitamin PP (nicotinic acid) – is involved in the formation of NADP (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate) and NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), and is involved in oxidative processes.
Folic acid – is involved in the biosynthesis of nucleic acids, the processes of cell division and proliferation of bone marrow cells.
Pharmacokinetics
Vitamins A and E (fat-soluble) can accumulate in body tissues and are excreted after catabolism.
Vitamin C, vitamin PP and B vitamins (water-soluble) combine with the apoenzyme and are converted into coenzymes, being an integral part of complex enzymes. They are excreted from the body in the form of various metabolites.
