Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: http://adisinsight.springer.com/drugs/800041300 | http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/medicines/mouth-and-teeth/a6534/dequadin-lozenges-dequalinium/ | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dequalinium

Dequalinium is a quaternary ammonium cation commonly available as the dichloride salt. Dequalinium chloride has an antiseptic effect against a wide range of bacteria, yeasts, and some fungi and viruses. It kills the micro-organisms associated with various mild infections of the mouth and throat. Also, Dequalinium chloride is active against the bacteria which cause bacterial vaginosis. Dequalinium Chloride (DECA) is a PKC inhibitor and high-affinity blocker CNGA1 channel, and nearly as effective on heteromeric CNGA1+CNGB1 channels. Common side effects are: vaginal discharge; vaginal itching or vaginal burning; vaginal yeast infection (thrush); tender tongue.
