pharmachologic effect

Interferon Alpha-2B The human recombinant has antiviral immunomodulatory, antiproliferative properties, suppresses replication of RNA and DNA-containing viruses. The immunomodulating properties of interferon alpha-2b, such as the amplification of the phagocytic activity of macrophages, an increase in the specific cytotoxicity of lymphocytes to target cells, determine its mediated antibacterial activity.

In the presence of ascorbic acid and the alpha-tocopherol of acetate, the specific antiviral activity of interferon alpha-2b increases, its immunomodulatory effect is enhanced, which allows to increase the efficiency of the body's own immune response to pathogenic microorganisms. When using the drug, the level of class A secretory immunoglobulins increases, the level of immunoglobulin E is normalized, the operation of the endogenous interferon alpha-2b system is restored. Ascorbic acid and alpha-tocopherol acetate, being highly active antioxidants, have anti-inflammatory, membrane-stabilizing, as well as regenerating properties. It has been established that when using the preparation of Viferon, there are no side effects arising from the parenteral administration of interferon alpha-2b drugs, antibodies that neutralizing the antiviral activity of interferon alpha-2b are not formed. Application of the drug Viferon in the composition complex therapy It allows to reduce therapeutic doses of antibacterial and hormonal drugs, as well as reduce the toxic effects of these therapy.
