How it works?
Instructions for use of the drug "Imunofan" is presented as a tool that has hepatoprotective and detoxification effects. The medication deactivates free radicals, peroxide fractions.
Three key effects have been identified, due to which the drug is characterized by pharmacological activity. The drug corrects the immune system, stabilizes the balance of oxidative and antioxidant reactions, inhibits multiple resistance to drugs. The latter is associated with the indirect effect of protein structures on the cell pump.
The instructions for use and reviews of the spray "Imunofan", suppositories and solution for injective administration mention the rapid achievement of a pronounced effect. Patients note that the first result of using the medication is noticeable in just a few hours. The manufacturer in the accompanying documentation clarifies that the development of the effect of the first phase requires an average of 2.5 hours (deviation up and down by half an hour is possible). The duration of the influence of the second, third phases reaches 4 months.
Specifics of pharmacology
In the instructions for use of "Imunofan" (suppositories, aerosol, solution), the manufacturer indicates that the duration of the fast phase can reach three days. At this stage, the detoxifying effect of the drug is most pronounced. The antioxidant ability to protect cells from aggressive factors increases. Actively produced ceruloplasmin, lactoferrin. Catalase becomes more effective. Under the influence of the drug, peroxidative oxidation reactions with the participation of fatty fractions are stabilized. The decomposition of phospholipids of cell membranes is inhibited. The active compound affects the production processes of arachidonic acid. The complex effect helps to reduce the concentration of cholesterol in the circulatory system. In lesser amounts, inflammatory mediators are generated.
In the instructions for use of "Imunofan" (capsules with a solution for injection, suppositories, aerosol), the manufacturer specifies that the medication can prevent cytolysis against the background of liver dysfunction caused by poisoning, infectious processes.

Under the influence of the drug, the generation of IgA is activated in the absence of this compound in the body due to congenital disorders.
