Documented Uses

• 1,3,2-Benzodioxabismole-5-carboxylic acid, 2,7-dihydroxy-: ACTIVE
• Substances that prevent infectious agents or organisms from spreading or kill infectious agents in order to prevent the spread of infection.
• Agents acting to arrest the flow of blood. Absorbable hemostatics arrest bleeding either by the formation of an artificial clot or by providing a mechanical matrix that facilitates clotting when applied directly to the bleeding surface. These agents function more at the capillary level and are not effective at stemming arterial or venous bleeding under any significant intravascular pressure.
• Ingested bismuth is primarily eliminated unabsorbed by way of the faeces. Any absorbed bismuth is eliminated from the body by both the urinary and faecal (including bile) routes. Excretion of absorbed bismuth in the urine is rapid, with most of the metal excreted within 24 hours. About 10% of the absorbed bismuth is detected in faeces, presumably owing to biliary secretion.
• In general, oral administration is one of the most common routes of administration for non-prescription bismuth subgallate products and gastrointestinal and systemic absorption is usually very low.
• On average, the blood clearance of the bismuth component of a bismuth salt like bismuth subgallate is within the range of 50 to 95 ml/min.
