HR-04 (RHENICINE)

Rhinitis:

Rhinitis is a condition that typically involves nasal obstruction, runny nose, post-nasal drip, itchy nose, and sneezing. Rhinitis may be acute (short-lived) or chronic (long-standing). Acute rhinitis commonly results from viral infections but may also be a result of allergies, bacteria, or other causes. Chronic rhinitis usually occurs with chronic sinusitis (chronic rhinosinusitis).

Symptoms of rhinitis may include:

• Stuffy nose
• Runny nose
• Sneezing
• Mucus (phlegm) in the throat (postnasal drip)
• Cough

Sinusitis:

Acute sinusitis (acute rhinosinusitis) causes the cavities around nasal passages (sinuses) to become inflamed and swollen. This interferes with drainage of mucus and causes to accumulate mucus. With acute sinusitis, it might be difficult to breathe through nose. The area around eyes and face might feel swollen, and might have throbbing facial pain or a headache. Acute sinusitis may be a flare-up of a long-term problem known as chronic sinusitis. Chronic sinusitis lasts longer than 12 weeks.

Symptoms can include:

• Ear pain
• Aching in your upper jaw and teeth
• Cough that might worsen at night
• Sore throat
• Bad breath (halitosis)
• Fatigue or irritability
• Nausea

Catarrh:

Catarrh is inflammation (and usually subsequent discharge from) of mucous membranes, especially in the respiratory tract. Catarrh is a feature of allergic rhinitis and sinusitis, and is also a feature of infections, such as viral upper respiratory infections.

Symptoms can include:

• A runny nose or mucus that runs down the back of

Pharmacology:

HR 4 contains synergistic formulation of the following herbs (Euphrasia, Hydrastis Can and Zingiber) that complement each other in a very potent way with the following actions: anticatarrhal, anti-inflammatory, immune enhancing and a tonic to upper respiratory mucosa. HR 4 contains Solidago virg which reduces the mucus overproduction in the mucous membranes of the sinuses, resolves mucus damp, restores the mucosa and stops discharge. HR 4 contains Pulsatilla which acts as an anti-septic, anti-inflammatory and significantly inhibits LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-induced inflammatory responses, also decreases the plasma levels of other inflammatory mediators such as NO3 -/NO2 -, ICAM-1, PGE2, and CINC-1. HR 4 contains Echinacea in which alkyl amides have been shown to be immune enhancing, causing increased phagocytic activity of granulocytes, which is part of the front line of immune defence. Altogether HR 4 exerts potent anti-inflammatory activities in the immune- challenged patients implicating that this medicine is therapeutically useful for the treatment of inflammatory diseases like sepsis, catarrh, sneezing, catarrhal pharyngitis, catarrhal sore throat, tonsillitis, subacute rhinitis, nasopharyngeal catarrh and flu symptoms.
