Genferon Light nasal drops 10 000 ME 10 ml

The drug Genferon Light, nasal drops, has antiviral, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, antibacterial action, has local regenerating, membrane-stabilizing and antioxidant properties. Interferon alfa blocks the multiplication of viruses during the synthesis of specific proteins and prevents the infection of uninfected cells of the nasal mucosa, which is the site of invasion of the pathogens and the primary focus of inflammation in respiratory infections. Immunomodulatory effect is manifested by intensification of cell-mediated immune system reactions, which increases the effectiveness of the immune response against foreign agents. This is achieved by activating CD8 + T-killers, NK cells (natural killers), enhancing the differentiation of B-lymphocytes and their production of antibodies, activation of the monocyte-macrophagal system and phagocytosis, as well as increasing the expression of molecules of the main histocompatibility complex of type 1, which increases the probability recognition of infected cells by cells of the immune system. Activation under the influence of interferon leukocytes contained in all layers of the mucous membrane, ensures their active participation in the elimination of pathological foci; In addition, due to the influence of interferon, the recovery of production of secretory immunoglobulin A is achieved. The antibacterial effect is mediated by immune system reactions, which are enhanced by the influence of interferon.

Taurine, which is part of the drug, normalizes metabolic processes in tissues, promotes regeneration and faster recovery of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity, damaged by the pathological process.
