Stomatitis, gingivitis, tonsillitis – all these diseases of the oral cavity are usually bacterial in nature. Typically, when such abnormalities doctors used to prescribe antibiotics.
However, not all patients tolerate them well, and many have a stubborn prejudice. And in that case, if a sick person is a child, the selection of effective and safe drug becoming a serious problem.
In such cases, can help out the medicine I have is a modern antiseptic for the throat and oral cavity, which includes only natural for the human body components.
Description
Probably everyone knows that one of the functions of saliva is the disinfection of the oral cavity. However, not all know, so the saliva is a natural antiseptic. The main component of saliva, exhibiting antimicrobial activity, is the protein, the enzyme lysozyme. Its full name is mucolytic enzyme is a peptidoglycan-N-acetylmuramic-hydrolase. Lysozyme is one of the natural components of the human immune system. It is contained also in breast milk and is on the mucous membranes.
Lysozyme contributes to the destruction of the shells of various harmful microorganisms. Interestingly, this substance is active not only against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria but also against some viruses and fungi.
It is the lysozyme is the main component of the drug. Thus, I have has a natural healing effect on the mouth and throat. Unfortunately, natural lysozyme contained in saliva, may be insufficient when massive attacks on the body of pathogenic microorganisms. Thus, I have provides additional doses of lysozyme due to its concentration becomes sufficient to exhibit antiseptic effect.
In addition, lysozyme stimulates certain elements of the immune system cells, e.g., antibodies, involved in the formation of the nonspecific immune response of the mucous membranes.
The second component is pyridoxine. This is the name of the majority or what not to say, however, pyridoxine is also known to the General public under the name of vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 is one of the most important for our body compounds, the need for which is greatly increased in patients with lesions of the mucous membrane of the mouth and throat. Pyridoxine performs a protective function in relation to the mucosa, helping it to recover from severe bacterial and viral infections. In particular, pyridoxine prevents the formation of aft on the mucous membrane. Vitamin B6 does not interfere with the therapeutic effect of lysozyme.
I have is antibiotic or immunomodulator?
It should be noted that the drug is not applicable to antibiotics, although its mechanism of action is largely similar to the mechanism of action of antibiotics. However, antibiotics penetrate the blood system and often create a serious burden on the kidneys and liver and also kill beneficial flora in the digestive tract and other parts of the body, what I have does not. It has only a local antiseptic effect.
In addition, I have contains vitamin, promoting regeneration of tissues. Also sometimes I have called an immune modulator. However, although lysozyme to a certain extent affects the immune system, it is a secondary property and immunomodulator drug can be called a stretch. In contrast to these immunomodulators, the drug does not interfere with the delicate mechanism of immune system, although providing substantial assistance.
