Anaferon drops for for children 25ml

Pharmachologic effect:

Pharmacological action - immunomodulatory, antiviral.

Pharmacodynamics:

With preventive and therapeutic use, the drug has an immunomodulating and antiviral effect. Effectively and experimentally clinically established against influenza viruses, parainfluenza, herpes simplex viruses type 1 and type 2 (herpes simplex, genital herpes), other herpes viruses (chicken pox, infectious mononucleosis), enteroviruses, tick-borne encephalitis virus, rotavirus, coron , calicivirus, adenovirus, respiratory syncytial virus. It reduces the concentration of viruses in affected tissues, affects the system of endogenous interferons and their associated cytokines, and induces the formation of endogenous “early” interferons (IFN α / β) and gamma interferon (IFN-γ).

Stimulates the humoral and cellular immune response. Increases the production of antibodies (including secretory IgA), activates the functions of T-effectors, T-helpers (Tx), normalizes their ratio. Increases the functional reserve of Tx and other cells involved in the immune response. It is an inducer of a mixed Tx1- and Tx2-type immune response: it increases the production of Tx1 cytokines (IFN-γ, IL-2) and Tx2 (IL-4, -10), normalizes (modulates) the balance of Tx1 / Tx2 activity. Increases the functional activity of phagocytes and natural killer cells. It has antimutagenic properties.

Pharmacokinetics:

The sensitivity of modern physicochemical methods of analysis (gas-liquid chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, chromatography-mass spectrometry) does not allow us to evaluate the content of the active components of the drug Anaferon in biological fluids, organs and tissues, which makes it technically impossible to study pharmacokinetics.
