What is Uniben and how does it work?
Uniben is a drug that contains the active substance – benzydamine hydrochloride. Benzydamine is an indole non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for use with local anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anesthetic and disinfectant effects.
Due to the fact that the drug is very well absorbed locally and reaches high concentrations in the tissues affected by the inflammatory process, the symptoms disappear quickly. The drug is well tolerated and is suitable for local treatment of symptoms of inflammation.
Uniben aerosol is intended for adults and children.
