Jayson Pharmaceuticals Product List

Jayson Pharmaceuticals Ltd makes an unusual mix: povidone-iodine antiseptics, a few conventional medicines, and a large set of traditional herbal syrups.

The sections below are grouped by what each preparation is, and the middle of the page covers antiseptic use, which is where most of the avoidable harm in this range would come from.

Povidone-Iodine Antiseptics

• Povisep Solution 100ml Topical Solution 10% and Povisep 30ml Topical Solution 10%
• Povisep Cream Cream 6% and Povisep 1% Mouthwash Mouthwash 1% — under Anti-Septics & Skin Disinfectants.

The strengths are not interchangeable

The topical solution, the cream and the mouthwash are formulated at different concentrations for different surfaces, and the percentage is on every listing. A mouthwash is not a wound solution and a wound solution is not a gargle.

Diluting or strengthening one to substitute for another is not a safe improvisation. Buy the preparation made for the job.

Who should not use it

Povidone-iodine is absorbed through skin and mucous membranes, and it should be avoided or used only on advice in pregnancy and while breastfeeding, in newborns, and by anyone with a thyroid condition or an iodine allergy.

Prolonged use over a large area is the situation where that matters most. A single small graze is not.

Using an Antiseptic on a Wound

Clean first, antiseptic second

Most of the benefit comes from rinsing a wound thoroughly with clean running water and removing grit, not from what is applied afterwards. An antiseptic on top of a dirty wound does little.

Do not use it inside a deep puncture, on a large burn, or on an animal or human bite. Those need to be seen rather than treated at home.

When a wound needs a doctor

Bleeding that will not stop with pressure, a wound that gapes or is deep enough to need closing, anything with glass or grit that will not rinse out, a wound on the face, or a burn bigger than a palm.

Spreading redness, swelling, heat, pus, a red streak running from the wound, or a fever afterwards all mean infection and need treatment. So does any wound in somebody with diabetes, which can be far more serious than it looks.

A dirty wound, a puncture, or a wound from something rusty raises the question of tetanus cover, and that is worth asking about rather than assuming. No antiseptic substitutes for it.

Traditional and Herbal Syrups

• Arecona Syrup 200ml, Arecona syrup 450ml and Carotone Plus 450ml
• Pectoral 200ml Syrup 200ml, Femolin 200ml and Anisol 100ml Syrup 100ml
• Amlac 100ml, Azmatone and Fevarol Jayson
• Santara-Jayson — under Herbal & Nutraceuticals.

These are shelved separately from the medicines for a reason

A herbal preparation is not licensed in the way a conventional medicine is, and the evidence behind one is generally thinner. That does not make it useless; it means the claims on the label carry less weight than those on a prescription medicine.

Where something is being treated, the treatment comes first and these sit alongside it or not at all.

Tell your doctor about them

Herbal syrups interact with conventional medicines and almost nobody mentions them, because the question sounds like it is only about prescriptions. Raise them before surgery, in pregnancy, and whenever a new prescription is written.

Sugar content is worth asking about too if there is diabetes in the house, because syrups carry a lot of it.

Children and dosing spoons

Dose a child by the measure supplied with the bottle, not a kitchen teaspoon, which varies enormously. Where the label gives a dose by weight, use the weight rather than the age.

A cough or fever in a small child that persists, worsens or comes with breathing difficulty needs a doctor, whatever is in the cupboard.

Vitamin and Mineral Preparations

• Folison Tablet 5mg.
• Riboson Tablet 5mg and Pyrol tablet 25mg — under Vitamin-B.
• Calcium-Jayson 10ml injection 100mg/ml and KT Syrup syrup 500mg

Folic acid matters most before a pregnancy, not during it

The protection it gives against neural tube defects is set in the first weeks, often before a pregnancy is known about, so it is started beforehand by anyone who might conceive.

The dose is a matter for a doctor, and it is higher for some people — those with diabetes or epilepsy, and anyone who has had an affected pregnancy before.

A supplement corrects a deficiency and does nothing else

Tiredness, hair fall and poor appetite have long lists of causes, and only some of them are nutritional. Where a deficiency is the problem, correcting it works; where it is not, the real cause carries on unaddressed.

Anaemia in particular has causes that matter, and it is worth finding out which rather than taking something and hoping.

Antihistamines and Drowsiness

• Histacin Tablet Tablet 4mg and Histacin 100ml Syrup 2mg/5ml — under Sedating Anti-Histamine.
• Histafen 120 — under Non-Sedating Antihistamines.
• Montison 10 — under Leukotriene Receptor Antagonists.

The catalogue carries both kinds, and the difference is the point

The older sedating type causes real drowsiness — enough to matter for driving, for operating machinery and for a student before an exam — and it is made worse by alcohol. The newer non-sedating type is intended to avoid that.

The shelves here name which is which, and it is worth checking before taking one during the day.

Sedating antihistamines and small children

They are not a sleep aid, and in young children the effect can be unpredictable — sometimes agitation rather than drowsiness. Do not give one to a child to help them sleep, and ask a pharmacist about age limits before giving one at all.

The same caution applies to older adults, in whom sedating types cause confusion and falls.

Local Anaesthetic Preparations

• Jasocaine Jelly — under Lubricants & Gels.
• Jasocaine-A 30ml injection 2%+0.0005% — under Local & Regional Anesthetics.

The injectable form is for clinical use

An injectable local anaesthetic is administered by a trained person, and it has a dose ceiling that depends on body weight. Exceeding it affects the heart and the nervous system, which is why it is not a self-administered product.

The jelly is a surface preparation and is a different thing entirely. Neither substitutes for the other.

Numbing does not mean nothing is wrong

A surface anaesthetic removes the sensation and leaves whatever caused it untouched. Pain that keeps needing numbing is pain that needs a diagnosis.

Skin Treatments

• Scabisol emulsion 25%.

A scabies treatment fails if the household is not treated together

Everyone living in the house is treated on the same day whether or not they itch, because the mites move between people and an untreated person re-infects the rest within weeks.

Bedding, towels and worn clothes go through a hot wash the same day, and anything that cannot be washed is sealed in a bag for several days.

The itch continues after the treatment works

Itching for two to four weeks afterwards is normal and is a reaction rather than a failure. Repeating the treatment because the itch persists is a common mistake and it irritates the skin further.

Get a diagnosis before treating. A great many itchy rashes are not scabies, and the treatment is unpleasant to apply for no reason.

Duragen and Sexual Wellness

Duragen Masculine Cream 20gm cream 20gm sits under Sexual Wellness, and it is the listing in this range that people most often go on to open.

Persistent difficulty is worth a doctor, not a cream

Erectile difficulty and premature ejaculation are both common and both treatable, and erectile difficulty in particular can be an early sign of a cardiovascular or hormonal problem worth finding.

A doctor is not an embarrassing step here; it is the step that finds the cause. Anything applied to that area that causes burning, rash or numbness that spreads should be stopped and asked about.

Medicine or Herbal Preparation — the Shelf Tells You

Reading this range needs one distinction kept in mind: some of it is conventional medicine shelved by drug class, and some is herbal preparation shelved as nutraceutical.

The shelf on each listing tells you which. A product filed under an antihistamine or an anaesthetic shelf is a licensed medicine; one filed under Herbal & Nutraceuticals is not, whatever the syrup bottle looks like.

That difference decides how much weight the label carries, and it is not visible from the product name alone.

It also decides where to look for an alternative. A licensed medicine has equivalents from other manufacturers on the same shelf at the same strength; a herbal syrup has other herbal syrups, which are not equivalents in the same sense.

A pharmacist can tell you which of the two you are holding if the pack is not clear about it.

Where Jayson Sits on Arogga

This page collects one manufacturer. The shelves collect one molecule or one preparation type across manufacturers, which is the comparison to make when something here is unavailable.

Strengths and stock change, so the listing is the record for both.

About Jayson Pharmaceuticals Ltd

Jayson Pharmaceuticals Ltd manufactures in Bangladesh and its range here splits unusually evenly between licensed medicines and traditional herbal syrups.

The Povisep antiseptics and the Histacin antihistamine are the most looked-up part of the range, followed by the folic acid and vitamin B tablets.

It is searched as Jayson Pharma, and spelled Jason and Joyson about as often as it is spelled correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I use the antiseptic solution as a mouthwash?

No. The solution, the cream and the mouthwash are made at different concentrations for different surfaces, and the percentage is on every listing. Diluting one to substitute for another is not a safe improvisation — buy the preparation made for the job.

2. Is povidone-iodine safe for everyone?

Not for everyone. It is absorbed through skin and mucous membranes, so it should be avoided or used only on advice in pregnancy and breastfeeding, in newborns, and by anyone with a thyroid condition or an iodine allergy. Prolonged use over a large area is where that matters most.

3. When does a cut need a doctor?

Bleeding that will not stop with pressure, a wound that gapes or needs closing, grit or glass that will not rinse out, a facial wound, or a burn bigger than a palm. Afterwards: spreading redness, heat, pus, a red streak or fever. Any wound in somebody with diabetes needs seeing.

4. Why do some antihistamines make me sleepy?

Because the older type is sedating, enough to matter for driving or machinery, and alcohol makes it worse. The newer non-sedating type is designed to avoid that, and the shelf on each listing names which is which. Do not give a sedating one to a child as a sleep aid.

5. When should folic acid be started?

Before conception, not after a pregnancy is confirmed — the protection against neural tube defects is set in the first weeks, often before anyone knows. The dose is a matter for a doctor and is higher with diabetes, epilepsy or a previous affected pregnancy.

6. My scabies itch has not gone. Should I treat again?

Usually not. Itching for two to four weeks after successful treatment is normal and is a reaction rather than a failure, and repeating irritates the skin further. What does matter is that everyone in the household was treated the same day and bedding was hot-washed.

7. Are the herbal syrups the same as the medicines?

No, and the shelf tells you which is which. A product filed under an antihistamine or anaesthetic shelf is a licensed medicine; one filed under Herbal & Nutraceuticals is not, whatever the bottle looks like. Tell your doctor about herbal syrups anyway — they interact.

8. জেসন ফার্মাসিউটিক্যালসের পণ্য তালিকা কোথায় পাবো?
