Galavit® is quickly absorbed, penetrates into organs, tissues and biological fluids. The maximum plasma concentration after rectal administration is reached after 23 minutes. Communication with plasma proteins - 6%. The maximum concentration of the drug is in the kidneys, the minimum in the muscles and brain tissues. The absolute bioavailability of Galavit® with rectal administration is 61%. The drug penetrates the blood-brain and placental barrier. It is excreted from the body mainly through the kidneys. After rectal administration, the half-life of the drug is 40-60 minutes.
Galavit® is used as an immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory agent in the complex therapy of immunodeficiency states. The mechanism of action of the drug is associated with its ability to affect the functional and metabolic activity of phagocytic cells (monocytes / macrophages, neutrophils, natural killers). In addition, Galavit® normalizes antibody formation, indirectly stimulates the production of endogenous interferons (IFN-α, IFN-γ).
In inflammatory diseases, the drug reversibly inhibits for 6-8 hours the excessive synthesis of hyperactivated macrophages of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1, interleukin-6 and other pro-inflammatory cytokines, reactive oxygen species, the level of which determines the degree of inflammatory reactions, their cyclicity, as well as the severity intoxication and the level of oxidative stress. Normalization of the functional state of macrophages leads to the restoration of the antigen presenting and regulatory functions of macrophages, and a decrease in the level of autoaggression. Stimulates the bactericidal activity of neutrophilic granulocytes, enhancing phagocytosis and increasing the body's nonspecific resistance to infectious diseases. The main pharmacological effects (immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory) are observed within 72 hours.
