Cycloferon Pharmacodynamics
Cycloferon is a low molecular weight inducer of interferon, which determines a wide range of its biological activity (antiviral, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, etc.).
Cycloferon is effective against herpes viruses, influenza and other pathogens of acute respiratory diseases. It has a direct antiviral effect by suppressing viral reproduction at early stages (1st-5th days) of infection, reducing infectivity of viral progeny, resulting in formation of defective viral particles. Increases nonspecific resistance of the organism against viral and bacterial infections.

 

Indications
In adults in the complex therapy:
– influenza and acute respiratory diseases;
– Herpetic infection.
In children from four years of age in the treatment:
– influenza and acute respiratory diseases;
– Herpetic infection.
In children from four years old for the prevention of influenza and acute respiratory infections.
