Clinical Pharmacology

Immunal - immunostimulating drug.
Echinacea contains active substances that, as non-specific stimulants, increase the body’s resistance. By increasing the number of white blood cells (granulocytes, T-lymphocytes) and stimulating their phagocytosis ability, they prevent the penetration of microorganisms into the body and accelerate their destruction. The antiviral effect of Echinacea purpurea on influenza and herpes viruses, its effect on the increase in body temperature, has also been proven.

Indications

  • to stimulate immunity with uncomplicated acute infectious diseases and with a predisposition to frequent colds;
  • prevention of SARS and flu;
  • as an aid in long-term antibiotic treatment of chronic infectious diseases, accompanied by a decrease in immunity.

Composition

100 ml of the solution contains 80 ml of juice obtained from freshly harvested Echinacea purpurea herb (Echinacea purpurea L.);
other ingredients: 20% ethanol, sorbitol;
