| abstract |
The invention relates to octenidine or a pharmaceutical salt thereof, in particular octenidine dihydrochloride, which is intended for mutual therapeutic administration of the octenidine in solution with a polyalcohol of formula 1: (H—C—OH) a (HO—C—OH) b (H—C—H) c , where a, b, c are whole numbers, where a+b is at least 2, preferably at least 3, c is selected from 0, 1 or a number from 2 to a+b, optionally in addition to one or more aldehyde groups provided that they form (cyclic) acetals with one of the hydroxy groups or one or more keto groups optionally as acetal with one of the hydroxy groups, optionally in addition to one or more carboxylic acid groups if the polyalcohol is a cyclic acetal or acetal, preferably with ring sizes of 5 to 7 atoms, or a polymer, polyether or polyester thereof, provided that the polyalcohol exists as a polymer, polyether or polyester with at least two units of formula 1 if a+b is 2 or 3. The invention also relates to kits containing these ingredients, and use thereof for treating infections and wounds. |
