Pharmacological action
Bifidumbacterin – normalizing intestinal microflora, immunomodulating.
It is an antagonist of a wide range of pathogenic and opportunistic microorganisms, activates the digestion and gastrointestinal tract functions, metabolic processes and nonspecific resistance of the body.
The effect of the drug is due to the high concentration of bifidobacteria adsorbed on particles of activated carbon, which are antagonists of a wide range of pathogenic (including Shigella spp., Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus) and conditionally pathogenic microorganisms (including Proteus spp., Klebsiella spp.).
Bifidobacteria, adsorbed on a specially prepared carrier, provide increased clinical efficacy, rapid restoration of normal microflora. Microflora, being a natural biosorbent, accumulates a significant amount of toxic substances that enter from the outside or are formed in the body and decompose them into non-toxic components. Sorbed bifidobacteria, forming microcolonies, intensely activate regenerative and metabolic processes, parietal digestion, the synthesis of vitamins and amino acids, the body’s immune defense.
