Pharmacological action

With preventive and therapeutic use, the drug has an immunomodulatory and antiviral effect. Efficacy against influenza viruses and herpes simplex viruses of types 1 and 2 (lip herpes, genital herpes) has been experimentally and clinically established. The drug reduces the concentration of the virus in the affected tissues, affects the system of endogenous interferons and their associated cytokines, induces the formation of endogenous “early” interferons (IFN a / β) and interferon gamma (IFN γ). It stimulates humoral and cellular immune responses. Increases the production of antibodies (including secretory IgA), activates the functions of T-effectors, T-helpers( Tx), and normalizes their ratio. Increases the functional reserve of Tx and other cells involved in the immune response. It is an inducer of a mixed Txl and Tx2-type immune response: it increases the production of Txl cytokines (IFN y, IL-2) and Tx2 (IL-4,10), normalizes (modulates) the balance of Tx1/Tx2 activities. Increases the functional activity of phagocytes and natural killer cells (EC cells).
