NAZOFERON NASAL SPRAY (INTERFERON ALFA-2B 100000 IU/ML) 5 ml

$18.50

nazoferon5mlspray

Description

1 ml of the drug contains the active substance – recombinant human interferon alfa-2 b not less than 100,000 IU,

Excipients: trometamol, trometamol hydrochloride, hypromelose, disodium edetate, lysine hydrochloride, potassium chloride, methyl parahydroxybenzoate, water for injection.

NAZOFERON is an antiviral, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antiproliferative agent. The mechanism of antiviral action is to inhibit the replication of viruses (adenoviruses, influenza viruses, etc.) due to the inhibitory effect on the processes of transcription and translation; antiproliferative – inhibits cell reproduction (most DNA and RNA viruses). Interferon initiates the synthesis of a specific enzyme – protein kinase, which prevents translation due to the phosphorylation of one of the initiating factors of this process; activates a specific ribonuclease, which damages the messenger RNA of the virus. The effects of interferon also include: stimulation of the production of other cytokines, induction of specific enzymes, inhibition of cell proliferation, immunomodulation (increased phagocytic activity of macrophages and specific cytotoxicity of lymphocytes in relation to target cells). Interferon is an immune mediator and has a pronounced tissue specificity. Due to its effects, interferon protects the body from pathogens of infectious diseases (viruses, bacteria, mycoplasmas, pathogenic fungi, etc.).
