- Summary
Panangin and asparcams belong to the drugs that are used when there is a shortage of potassium and magnesium in the body. Both these drugs have almost identical composition, differing only in insignificant characteristics. Their main differences are the manufacturer and the price.
Comparative analysis of the composition of
The main substances responsible for the pharmacological action of drugs are potassium and magnesium. These microelements play an important role in the human body.
Table. Comparison of the composition
| Substance | Panangin in tablets | Asparagus in tablets | Panangin in | solution Asparagus in |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| solution Aspartate in potassium | 158 mg | 175 mg | 45.2 mg / mL | 45.2 mg / mL |
| Aspartate of magnesium | 140 mg | 175 mg | 40 mg / mL | 40 mg / mL |
| Calculated for potassium ions | 36.2 mg | 36.2 mg | 10.33 mg / mL | 10.33 mg / mL |
| As recalculated for magnesium ions, | 11, 8 mg | 11.8 mg | 3, 37 mg / mL | 3, 37 mg / mL |
| Excipients | Colloidal silicon dioxide,pills, povidone, magnesium stearate, talc, corn and potato starch, macrogol, titanium dioxide, methacrylic acid copolymer | Potato or corn starch, talc, calcium stearate, twin 80 | Water for Injection | Water for Injection, sorbitol |
As can be seen from the table,the amount of active substances( magnesium and potassium ions) in drugs is identical. Differences concern only auxiliary substances that do not affect the pharmacological properties of these drugs.
Another feature of Panangin is the presence of a film membrane that protects the teeth and mucous membrane of the stomach from damage caused by the drug. Therefore, there is an opinion that people with a gastritis or a peptic ulcer are the ones who fit well.
Manufacturers of
The main differences between these two drugs are their manufacturers and the price.
Panangin produces only the pharmaceutical company Gedeon Richter( Hungary).
Asparks are manufactured by many domestic and foreign companies such as Biosintez OJSC( Russia), Health( Ukraine), Mediisor( Russia), Pharmstandard-Leksredstva( Russia), Marbiopharm( Russia), Mediisorb( Russia), etc.
Average tabletsor ampules of panangin are 2-3 times more expensive than similar drugs asparcuma.
Hungarian pharmaceutical company Gedeon Richter Summary
So what is better - asparkam or panangin? In the medical environment, there is an opinion that Panangin deserves more trust from these two drugs. However, no scientific studies comparing the efficacy and safety of these drugs have been conducted.
The composition of both preparations is almost identical, and the active substances are simple chemical compounds. That is, there can not be big differences in pharmacological and pharmacodynamic properties between them. Therefore, many doctors still believe that these medicines should be identical.
Why do doctors give advantage to panangin? The matter is more trust in the European manufacturer and quality control, which is used by the company Gedeon Richter. Some of the doctors even believe that domestic companies manufacturing asparks do not quite conscientiously relate to the production of medicines, so the actual composition of this drug may not meet the declared.
