Indications FITOSTIMOLINE ® Triticum vulgare + Phenoxyethanol

FITOSTIMOLINE ® is indicated for the treatment of ulcers and bedsores in order to facilitate healing.

Action mechanism FITOSTIMOLINE ® Triticum vulgare + Phenoxyethanol

FITOSTIMOLINE ® is a drug that combines two different active ingredients, the aqueous extract of Triticum vulgare and Phenoxitanol, respectively with healing and antiseptic activity.

More precisely, the aqueous extract of Triticum vulgare, obtained precisely from wheat germ, thanks to its particular consistency, characterized by the presence of starches, phospholipids and glycolipids, is able to create a film on the skin surface useful to avoid loss of liquids and at the same time to recall fibroblastic cells responsible for the synthesis of collagen fibers, responsible for the healing process.

Phenoxyethanol, on the other hand, is able to bind the wall of bacteria by altering their normal structure and thus compromising normal vital and reproductive capacities, thus fulfilling an understood antiseptic activity.

Also for the gauze we recommend one or two applications a day, taking care to gently apply the same on the cleaned and disinfected region.
