BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacotherapeutic group - hepatoprotective agent. ATX code AO5BA.
Bioprotectin is a combined drug of targeted hepatoprotective action. Milk thistle extract has a stabilizing effect on the hepatic cell membrane, inhibits cytolysis and the penetration of toxins into liver cells, stimulates the synthesis of proteins and enzymes in hepatocytes, and prevents the development of cholestasis.
The live bifidobacteria and lactobacilli included in the preparation participate in the metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, providing the formation of amino acids, vitamins, organic and short-chain fatty acids, which improve tissue trophism and liver function, transform exo- and endotoxins, converting them into non-toxic compounds, which are removed from the body. Conglomerates of bacteria adsorbed on VDK create optimal conditions for the rapid restoration of intestinal normal flora and its protective functions.
The excipient lactulose is not cleaved by enzymes of the small intestine and is not absorbed, it is hydrolyzed by bacteria in the large intestine, being a food substrate for the probiotic component of the drug and the normal flora that colonizes the large intestine.
