What this medicine is for
Pharmacologically, Cetrimide relates to the category “local antiseptic / antibacterial”. This antiseptic is applied locally to reduce micro-organisms and prevent infection of a wound or a mucous membrane.
For Cetrimide in practice: Disinfects the skin or mucous membranes. It is used rather occasionally or as a short course, to get through an episode.
Under which brands it is found
Cetrimide is found in about 3 presentations listed in France. It is available under several brand names and as generics.
- Cetavlon
- Xogel
- Xylonor
Generics and the original brand are equivalent for the active substance; only the appearance, the name or the excipients may differ.
Do you need a supplement? No.
For Cetrimide, we offer no supplement. No nutritional supplementation has any serious justification to set against this treatment, and we prefer to say so rather than invent a need. Our range is limited to five classes of everyday medicines for which a targeted intake makes sense; beyond these, we sell nothing for the sake of selling, and that is what gives weight to our five references.
