1. What is Rinobanedif and what is it used for

It is a nasal ointment that contains two active antibiotics (bacitracin and neomycin), a corticosteroid, prednisolone (anti-inflammatory), phenylephrine (nasal decongestant), chlorobutanol (antiseptic), and two components with aromatic properties (eucalyptus oil and niaouli essence); when applied to the nasal mucosa, Rinobanedif provides antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and vasoconstrictive activity.

Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections and are not effective against viral infections such as the flu or common cold.

It is essential to follow the instructions regarding dosage, administration interval, and treatment duration indicated by your doctor.

Do not store or reuse this medication. If you have any leftover antibiotic after completing the treatment, return it to the pharmacy for proper disposal. Do not throw away medications down the drain or in the trash.

Rinobanedif is indicated for the local treatment of nasal mucosa conditions that present with congestion, inflammation (such as some symptoms of rhinitis), and/or small wounds, with or without crust formation, in adults and children over 6 years old.

2. What you need to know before starting to use Rinobanedif

Do not use Rinobanedif:

  • If you are allergic to the active ingredients or any other component of this medication (listed in section 6).
  • If you have tuberculosis, syphilis, fungal infections, or viral infections (such as herpes or chickenpox), including those affecting the respiratory tract.
  • In the eyes or on open wounds.
  • In children under 6 years old.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to use Rinobanedif.

  • Use with caution in the following situations: coronary artery disease or heart disease, hypertension, irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias), thyroid disease, diabetes mellitus, difficulty urinating due to prostate problems, glaucoma (increased pressure inside the eyes), recent nasal ulcers, recent nasal surgery, or recent nasal trauma.
  • Due to the corticosteroid content (prednisolone) via nasal route, any of the side effects reported with the use of oral corticosteroids may occur, especially when used at high doses and for prolonged periods, such as changes in glands located near the kidneys, leading to symptoms like obesity, growth retardation in children, etc. (Cushing's syndrome).
  • Do not use the medication for an extended period.
  • If you are hypersensitive to certain antibiotics (aminoglycosides), you may be sensitive to neomycin, and if you are sensitive to neomycin, you may be sensitive to bacitracin, components of this medication.

Children

Do not administer to children under 6 years old, as the safety and efficacy of this medication have not been established in this age group.

Children are more prone to experiencing side effects from corticosteroids than adults.

Other medications and Rinobanedif

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or may need to take any other medication, including those purchased without a prescription.

Some medications may increase the effects of Rinobanedif, so your doctor will closely monitor you if you are taking these medications (including some for HIV: ritonavir, cobicistat).

If sufficient internal absorption occurs, it may lead to hypertensive crises and cardiac arrhythmias, especially when administered with MAOIs (antidepressants and other uses), tricyclic antidepressants, and beta-blockers (for the heart). Interactions may also occur with maprotiline (antidepressant) and other aminoglycosides (antibiotics).

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.

Since some components of Rinobanedif may be absorbed into the circulation, especially with prolonged or excessive administration, it should not be administered during pregnancy, unless the doctor considers that the benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risks to the fetus or baby.

Do not apply Rinobanedif during breastfeeding.

Driving and using machines

No effects on the ability to drive and use machines have been reported.

3. How to use Rinobanedif

Instructions for correct use of the ointment

Opening the tube and mode of use: To open the tube, unscrew the cap-nozzle assembly and remove the safety ring (Fig. A). Replace the nozzle, screwing it to the bottom, to pierce the aluminum seal of the tube.

After application, clean the end of the tube with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use the container for more than one person.

You should consult your doctor if your symptoms worsen or do not improve after 7 days of treatment.

If you use more Rinobanedif than you should

Due to the form of administration, intoxication is very unlikely.

In case of overdose, the effects that may occur are mainly local irritation, and in case of sufficient absorption of phenylephrine, cardiovascular alterations (cardiac arrhythmias, hypertension) may appear.

In the event of accidental ingestion, if a container is involved, there will be gastric irritation, and there should be no cardiovascular alterations in principle.

Treatment, in case of overdose or accidental ingestion, should include monitoring of blood pressure and electrocardiogram. Additionally, in case of ingestion (equal to or greater than one container), vomiting should be induced or gastric lavage performed, and a mucosal protector administered.

In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately, or go to a medical center, or call the Toxicology Information Service, Tel. 91 562 04 20, indicating the medication and the amount ingested.

If you forget to use Rinobanedif

Do not use a double dose to make up for the forgotten dose.
