Just about the drug "Octolipen": instructions for use briefly for patients

In life there are stages when the liver needs special protection. She has a lot of work, and the main task is to protect from toxic effects. This problem is actual even for those who do not smoke and drink a little alcohol, because their contribution to the poisoning of the organism is made by the modern ecological situation. What to do? Pay attention to the drug "Octolipen".

Instructions for use in addition to situations where it is necessary to protect the liver, mentions the usefulness of this drug in cases of irradiation with radiation. The fact that "Oktalipen" has antioxidant activity, which allows you to protect any cells, not only hepatic. As a result, free radicals are captured by the drug molecules and thus render harmless. Another "Octolipen" instruction for use recommends the use for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. Recent research proves that "Octolipen" slows down the development of HIV. The spectrum of action of this tool is quite wide, and in most states it is sold without a prescription.

In Europe, this drug is widely used for poisoning, especially poisonous fungi, after irradiation and with liver diseases provoked by alcohol. If a doctor in Western Europe sees an increase in ALAT and ACAT (that is, hepatic enzymes) in the blood, he often recommends an analogue of "Octolipen". So the use of this medication is world practice.

Also, the "Octolipen" instruction for use recommends prescribing simultaneously with antibiotics. In this case, the load on the liver decreases and even large doses of antibiotics do not increase the value of the number of hepatic enzymes in the blood (this indicates that the liver cells are not destroyed, although antibiotics usually do not spare hepatocytes). "Octolipen" increases the amount of glutathione, an important element of the body's antioxidant system, created by nature.

With diabetic neuropathy, cells are destroyed quite quickly. However, if you use antioxidants, then the process will slow down significantly. But the regeneration of nerve cells is almost impossible, so protecting these structures is very important. However, the effect of "Octolipen" and other antioxidants (selenium, vitamin E) is not quantitatively different. Therefore, the patient should choose the drug most accessible to him.

But the effect of a significant increase in the immune response is unique for the drug "Octolipen". Instruction for use says that this is what is behind the effect of slowing the development of HIV infection. This drug enhances specific immunity, that is, the destruction of specific pathogens of the disease.

Side effects of the drug have been studied little. Only one job reports negative impact on volunteers. And even then the effect of very high doses (4 times more than normal) was investigated for several months. As a result, volunteers, HIV-negative men, decreased blood clotting due to a decrease in the number of platelets, and nausea and vomiting were observed. Also, some developed iron deficiency anemia. However, in practice, no one is appointed in such quantities as "Octolipen".

Reviews are good, patients feel better against the background of taking this medication. And if you do not violate the dosage regimen (200 mg per day), then you will not have anemia, nausea and thrombocytopenia (this is when there are not enough platelets). You need to take breaks every two weeks for two weeks, at this time you need to eat as much as possible iron-containing foods (buckwheat, red meat). So you renew the stocks of this metal in the body.

"Octolipen" in ampoules is recommended for diabetics. When using this form, blood sugar is reduced, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism is improved. Also, the need for insulin is significantly reduced.

This drug can be given to children from 3 years of age.
