Mechanism of action

Interferon alfa-2 has antiviral, antibacterial and immunomodulatory effects. Under the influence of interferon alpha-2, the activity of natural killer cells, T-helpers, phagocytes, as well as the intensity of B-lymphocyte differentiation, increases in the body. The activation of leukocytes contained in all layers of the mucous membrane ensures their active participation in the elimination of the primary pathological foci and ensures the restoration of production of secretory immunoglobulin A.

Interferon alfa-2 also directly inhibits the replication and transcription of chlamydia viruses.

Taurinewhich is part of the preparation, has regenerating, reparative, membrane-and hepatoprotective, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties.

Benzocaine is a local anesthetic.
