Pharmacological action

Milk thistle interacts with free radicals in the liver and reduces their toxicity.

Interrupting the process of lipid peroxidation, it prevents further destruction of cellular structures.

In damaged hepatocytes, it stimulates the synthesis of structural and functional proteins and phospholipids (due to specific stimulation of RNA polymerase A), stabilizes cell membranes, prevents the loss of cellular components and intracellular enzymes (transaminases), and accelerates the regeneration of liver cells. Inhibits the penetration of certain hepatotoxic substances (poisons of the pale toadstool fungus) into the cells.

Undergoes enterohepatic circulation. It is metabolized in the liver by conjugation. It is mainly excreted in the bile in the form of glucuronides and sulfates, to a small extent in the urine.

It doesn’t accumulate. After repeated oral use of 140 mg 3 times a day, a stable concentration is achieved.

Improves the general condition of patients with liver diseases, reduces subjective complaints, normalizes laboratory parameters (transaminase activity, gamma-glutamyltransferase, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin level).

Long-term use significantly increases the survival rate of patients suffering from cirrhosis of the liver.
