Treatment of pharyngitis: White-label medical device
Tur-Pharyngitis is a throat spray developed by Vitrobio, designed to alleviate the symptoms and treat the root causes of pharyngitis. Leveraging our innovative, patented technology, this spray works on a mechanical basis to cleanse, protect, and hydrate the throat, providing rapid relief and minimizing the need for antibiotics.
TUR-Pharyngitis Class IIa medical device
Our innovative Tur-Pharyngitis throat spray has been developed as a breakthrough solution to combat pharyngitis, a common and often painful throat infection. This medical device works by providing a dual action – it not only soothes the irritated throat but also treats the underlying cause of the condition.
Effective and Multi-Targeted Action
Tur-Pharyngitis employs Vitrobio’s proprietary filmogenic technology to create a protective film that reduces contaminants on the throat surface. The polymers in our formula target key proteins involved in pharyngitis, specifically pro-inflammatory cytokines and interleukins. By targeting these proteins, Tur-Pharyngitis provides a comprehensive approach to treatment that surpasses conventional, single-target methods.
Mode of Action for Throat Treatment Products
Vitrobio’s throat treatment products work through a unique three-step process to provide relief from throat discomfort and promote healing.
-
Protective Barrier: The first step involves the creation of a protective barrier on the throat’s mucous membrane. This is achieved through the use of filmogenic glycerol, which not only acts as a shield against external contaminants but also provides hydration and soothes the irritated throat. This protective barrier is crucial in preventing further irritation and providing immediate relief.
-
Mechanical Cleaning: The second step is mechanical cleaning, which is facilitated by the product’s high osmotic activity. This osmotic action instantly attracts and traps most of the adhered contaminants, including inflammatory proteins, bacteria, and viruses. By removing these harmful substances, the product effectively suppresses inflammation and halts the immune cascade, leading to a reduction in throat discomfort.
-
Cellular Repair: The final step is cellular repair. Once the throat’s biological surface is clean and hydrated, cell growth and healing are immediately triggered. This promotes the repair and regeneration of the throat’s mucous membrane, leading to long-term relief and recovery.
Swift Relief with Lasting Results
Through our osmotic technology, Tur-Pharyngitis is able to quickly remove viruses, bacteria, and impurities, offering a substantial reduction in throat pain within 5 minutes of application. A significant decrease in symptoms such as irritation, redness, and difficulty in swallowing is observed in as early as 2 hours.
Understanding Pharyngitis
Pharyngitis, commonly known as a sore throat, is an inflammation of the pharynx, the portion of the throat that lies just behind the mouth and nasal cavity. It’s often caused by viral or bacterial infections, and its primary symptom is throat pain and discomfort.
The Prevalence and Impact of Pharyngitis
Pharyngitis is a widespread condition, affecting individuals of all ages worldwide. It is particularly prevalent during colder months, when respiratory infections are more common. Pharyngitis can significantly impact a person’s daily life, causing discomfort, difficulty in swallowing, and loss of sleep.
Existing Treatments and Their Limitations
Conventional treatments for pharyngitis typically include over-the-counter pain relievers, throat lozenges, and, in the case of bacterial pharyngitis, antibiotics. While these treatments may alleviate symptoms, they often do not address the multifaceted nature of the disease.
The Need for a Comprehensive Treatment
Pharyngitis involves not only the presence of pathogens but also an inflammatory response and, in some cases, a secondary bacterial infection. Thus, an effective treatment needs to address all of these factors simultaneously. Tur-Pharyngitis, with its multi-target approach, provides an innovative solution that caters to the comprehensive needs of pharyngitis patients.
