Medications to restore immunity in herpes

Recurrences of herpes always occur against a background of reduced immunity. What medications to treat herpes on the background of reduced immunity? For this purpose, always apply immunomodulators. All of them can be divided into two groups: non-specific and specific immunotherapy.

For carrying out nonspecific immunotherapy applied immunoglobulins, interferons and inducers (stimulants) formation of endogenous (produced by cells of the patient) interferon and drugs that stimulate cellular immunity.

For the treatment of recurrent herpes infections frequently used normal human immunoglobulin, wherein the presence is necessary to treat antiherpetic amount of specific antibodies (mainly to HSV-1 which is present in the body of nearly all adults).

For the treatment of severe, including generalized forms of herpes Sandoglobulin used (manufacturer - Sandoz, Switzerland) - human immunoglobulin with a high content of antibodies or Russian antiherpetic immunoglobulin for intravenous administration.

Interferon herpes also activates the immune cells that contribute to the excretion of pathogens. Human leukocyte interferon is produced in the form of the following formulations: nasal drops, interferon injection as a mixture of alpha interferon produced by leukocytes clinically healthy donors leukinferon for injection, which comprises interferon-alfa and cytokines (substances released by various cell types that act on other cells, regulating their functions), human leukocyte interferon in rectal suppositories.

Additionally, recombinant interferons are now obtained from biomass by means of genetic engineering. These drugs include viferon, herpes it is applied in the form of rectal suppositories and gel for external use. Treatment of herpes viferonom significantly increases the effect of drug therapy. Candles from herpes viferon widely used in the treatment of all types of herpes. Available in combined preparation kipferon in rectal and vaginal suppositories, which in addition to a recombinant alfa-2 interferon include immunoglobulins. Popular products in this series is tsikloferon TSikloferon - restores the body's defenses , Herpes it is also frequently prescribed as an inducer of endogenous interferon. Treatment of herpes cycloferon concurrently with antivirals reduces the duration of recurrent infection.

Medications Group inducers of endogenous interferon stimulate the secretion of interferon own body cells. Such a mechanism of action have many drugs, both natural and synthetic origin: levamisole, Dibazolum, vitamin B12, pirogenal, prodigiozan and others. They are also frequently used to treat herpes infections.

Preparations for herpes tablets of this series are especially popular this amiksin, alpizarin, flokazid, arbidol, Kagocel. These drugs most often prescribed to patients with recurrent herpes suffering from frequent colds of viral origin. Especially effective amiksin herpes. And this drug is used as Kagocel herpes. But arbidol herpes rarely used, as is more efficient for the flu.

The antiviral and immunomodulatory drug Lavomax herpes is assigned as an antiviral agent which enhances the effect of acyclovir, Valtrex and Famvir as well as an inducer of endogenous interferon.

The drug with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects Wobenzym herpes regulatory mechanisms of nonspecific protection (stimulates the production of interferons), thereby demonstrating antiviral and antimicrobial effect. Available in tablets. The structure consists of highly Wobenzym enzyme plant and animal origin. He has immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, anti-edema, antithrombotic and analgesic effects.

In oftalmogerpese particularly effective synthetic interferon inducer Poludanum - eye drops for herpes and the solution for subconjunctival injection. New in the treatment of herpes Treatment of herpes - a serious problem   - Poludan this application in the treatment of HSV infection with lesions of the skin and mucous membranes. When herpes infection of the skin lesion appoint obkalyvanie poludanom.

To activate cellular immunity of patients with herpes infection with frequent relapses of the disease prescribe such drugs against herpes as T-activin, timalin, thymogen, Myelopid and others.

For non-specific immunostimulant is also izoprinozin, herpes, he was appointed also as an antiviral agent. The anti-herpes izoprinozin has immunostimulatory activity and non-specific antiviral effect. Isoprinosine has a stimulating effect, both cellular and humoral immunity on. When combined appointment it enhances the action of interferon-alpha and antiviral agents including acyclovir.

Vitamins with herpes have a tonic effect, so they are always prescribed as part of a treatment.

For specific immunotherapy is used herpetic polyvalent killed vaccine tissue. Herpes vaccine stimulates the production of antibodies to the herpes virus, the activity of immune cells of the blood and eliminates allergic disposition of the body in relation to the herpes virus. Injections of herpes (booster) in this case do every 6-8 months.

Treatment of herpes Corvalol

Corvalol herpes is used as a symptomatic treatment. The composition of this formulation includes essential oil Essential oils and conception: can help the roses?   mint Mint and its useful properties: aromatic freshness   and alcohol, promotes healing herpetic vesicles, reduce itching and inflammation. Corvalol also has an antiseptic effect, reducing the risk of additional bacterial infection and promotes rapid healing of ulcers. Liquid Corvalol richly moistened cotton swab and apply to the affected area of ​​the skin on the lip and keep a few seconds once or twice a day.

Medication for herpes are very diverse. Select them only by a doctor, it also determines the best cure for herpes for the patient. The best remedy for herpes - the one that is right for you.

Viruses

Hemorrhagic fever include a whole group of diseases, which combines involvement in the pathological process of blood vessels, resulting in a sharp increase in their permeability, and skin and internal organs arise areas with hemorrhages. The agents of hemorrhagic fever viruses are four families:

• filoviruses,
• bunyaviruses,
• Togaviridae,
• arenaviruses.

These viruses are often transmitted to humans by blood-sucking insects (mosquitoes, ticks), rodents, rarely pathogen enters the body through the air, food and water, as well as in the care of the animals infected with these viruses. Despite the fact that the degree of infectiousness of these diseases is very high, hemorrhagic fevers have expressed natural foci and disease occurs more often in places of mass settlement among carriers of a category of persons whose profession is closely associated with service animals or work in a wilderness. Depending on the route of transmission of the virus hemorrhagic fever classified tick, mosquito and contagious (transmitted by airborne droplets, food or waterway).

The development of hemorrhagic fevers

The mechanism of development of hemorrhagic fevers caused by the fact that pathogens tend to cells covering the blood vessels inside (these are called endothelial cells from the Latin «endos» - internal) .  Getting into these viruses multiply and destroy the products of its vital vascular endothelial cells .  First of all, this process affects the capillaries, because of which they become brittle, and increasing their permeability .  Moreover, damage of these cells leads to inflammation of the vascular walls and runs reaction intravascular clotting, since vascular cells contain specific components among the blood coagulation factors .  These factors accelerate stop bleeding when receiving injuries, such as cuts .  But in the case of the haemorrhagic fevers mechanical vascular injury occurs, and blood begins to clot directly within the vascular bed .  As a result, the viscosity of the blood increases the blood flow is hampered, and in some areas there are congestion that contribute to even greater damage to the vascular walls .

Externally, the whole process is shown typical symptoms. After an incubation period required for the reproduction of the virus and continued from one to three weeks, there are common symptoms of intoxication: fever, weakness, headache and pain in muscles and joints. Then there are signs of vascular lesions, redness separate portions of skin and visible mucous membranes, vasodilation eyeball and changes in the blood picture in the downward formed elements such as leukocytes White blood cells as the basis of immunity   and platelets Platelets - what they are for the body? . Gradually, the clinical manifestations are becoming brighter, dramatically enhanced toxicity, there are massive hemorrhage often occur nasal bleeding and bloody vomiting, reduced activity of the cardiac activity and the fore symptoms of viral infection of a body depending on the form of hemorrhagic fever. So, with the involvement of the kidneys manifest renal syndrome-specific (for example, effleurage very strong pain), because of the deterioration of the kidneys decreases urine formation, and the urine becomes very krovjanisto-turbid.

Effects

A very serious complication of hemorrhagic fever, ranging from the development of acute renal failure Acute renal failure - causes and consequences   and ending intoxication shock, which can result in lethal.

With a favorable outcome of the body long enough for a few weeks, get rid of the virus and its effects. Functions affected by the pathology of the restored and not immediately.

Identify the specific kind of haemorrhagic fever in the diagnosis of serum reaction helps with blood plasma. In addition, this pathology is necessary to differentiate from other diseases with similar symptoms (rickettsioses, meningokokktsemiya, sepsis, etc.).

The sick must be urgently hospitalized in the infectious department to provide specialized medical care: to eliminate toxicity, eliminate the consequences of breaking the system of blood clotting, adjust immunity Immunity - types and characteristics in children in adults   and acid-base balance of the blood, prevent the development of complications and so on. For prevention is very important vector control pathogens, the use of protective clothing and repellents. Specific prevention measures have not yet profitable.
