ABSTRACT The use of antibacterial drugs has become widespread over the past 10-15 years. In this regard, there is a significant increase in antibiotic resistance in the world. Combating this problem has been one of the priorities of WHO since 2015. In light of this situation, the use of antimicrobials with no antibiotic resistance is of paramount importance. Topical antimicrobial peptides are used to treat infectious skin and mucosal diseases. The review highlights the role of the antimicrobial polypeptide thyrotricin and the complex drug doritricin in the treatment of pharyngeal pathology in adults and children according to foreign and domestic literature. The obtained data indicate the effectiveness and safety of a topical complex preparation containing thyrotricin, benzalkonium chloride and benzocaine (doritricin) as a monopreparation in the treatment of viral and bacterial tonsillopharyngitis, as well as in the complex therapy of streptococcal tonsillopharyngitis.
