TSikloferon tablets prescribed by the doctor quite often, because today viral diseases and low immunity are the most common diseases. Assign this drug as adult patients and children after the age of four years.

Tsikloferona tablets in the treatment of infections

Tablets tsikloferona often used to treat a variety of acute and chronic infections. Acute viral infection, such as influenza, other acute Respiratory viral infections, intestinal infections of viral origin (e.g., rotavirus infection) occur on the background is much easier and faster end. The reason is that tsikloferon has antiviral, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects.

Tsikloferona pills help cope with acute bacterial infection (eg, acute intestinal infections of bacterial origin) - they strengthen the immune system and reduced body defenses will cope with the infection.

Most tablets tsikloferona take courses at a variety of chronic viral infections, which occur long and sluggish, occasionally causing acute and gradually undermining the patient's body. These infections are chronic viral hepatitis Hepatitis - the scourge of our time Herpes, cytomegalovirus infection, and others. TSikloferon in this case, not only inhibits the ability to live viruses but also "shakes up" the body, causes it to yourself to fight infection.

Treatment of immunity

Impaired immunity may contribute to a variety of diseases. It could be frequent colds and chronic infections and autoimmune (allergic to its own tissue) or cancer process.

Frequent colds say lowered immunity, such states are usually common among children who have not yet fully matured all parts of the immune system. The course helps tsikloferona tablets for a long time to forget about the cold.

Some chronic infections develop only on the background of reduced immunity. For example, a fungal infection caused by yeast fungi of the genus Candida - all known thrush can continue indefinitely if disturbed immunity. After the course of taking the pills tsikloferona all signs of thrush are (of course, in this case tsikloferon TSikloferon - restores the body's defenses   taken together with antifungal drugs).

Metabolic processes in the joints and spine also often require a "shake-up", after which the metabolism Improves metabolism and losing weight without dieting   partially or fully restored, decrease pain and movement disorders. TSikloferon used in the complex treatment of diseases such as osteoarthritis and low back pain Osteochondrosis - learn how to properly distribute the weight .

Special effects tsikloferon has on the body of patients with autoimmune processes, that is, if the body develops an allergy to their own tissue. In this case, it helps to suppress excessive immune system activity. There is experience in the use of tablets tsikloferona the treatment of rheumatism and systemic connective tissue diseases, which are based on an autoimmune process. After a course of treatment of the condition of these patients improved or stabilized.

Finally, breaking immunity can lead to the development of cancer. One function is to suppress the immune undifferentiated cells proliferate, i.e. the atypical cells, which due to proliferate not have time to acquire the characteristics of tissue cells from which they evolved. If the immune system can not cope with this task, these cells proliferate and turn into a malignant tumor that grows in the surrounding tissue, destroying their vessels and metastasize to distant organs and tissues. In this case tsikloferon can be used as a tablet form and as a solution for injection.

This should not take tablets tsikloferona

TSikloferon tablets - is almost completely safe drug. It can not be used only in severe liver disease with severe violation of its functions, as tsikloferon metabolized (decomposed into metabolites) in the liver and in violation of this process can accumulate in the body. Do not take tsikloferon and are hypersensitive to the drug - it is fraught with allergic reactions, which are the only side effect tsikloferona.

During pregnancy, breast-feeding and the age of four tablets tsikloferona not apply due to the fact that in these group of patients were not conducted clinical trials of the drug.

Parainfluenza - acute illness with air-borne infection, cases of which are recorded year-round, but the increased incidence observed in autumn and winter. The disease is transmitted from person to person and develops within two to seven days after contact with the source of infection. Parainfluenza is especially dangerous for young children, as one of the most frequent complication is the development of its false croup, which has a serious prognosis, and therefore requires urgent measures.

Symptoms parainfluenza

The disease develops gradually, beginning with minor symptoms of intoxication, subfebrile body temperature and catarrhal symptoms of prevailing in this type of infection. Parainfluenza virus has tropism to the roof, and therefore laryngitis Laryngitis - deadly   it is a typical manifestation. Laryngitis in adults can be in the form of hoarseness up to Athos, and the children more likely to develop a rough bark, dry cough Dry cough - whether to worry about it?   and shortness of breath on the stenotic type.

On examination, the doctor discovers flushing the posterior pharyngeal wall and the walls of the pharynx. The general state of health of the patient may suffer slightly, especially parainfluenza infection occurs only Athos, however, such people are the main sources of infection, as they rarely limit their contact, continuing to lead an active life.

Complications parainfluenza

The most severe complication of parainfluenza is cereals, which, unlike true that develops in diphtheria, called false. The medical name of a false croup - acute constrictive laryngotracheitis. For its diagnosis only three symptoms: hoarseness, barking cough and shortness of nature noisy breath.

There are the following degree of stenosis

• First, the child's condition moderately, there are hoarseness and cough, shortness of breath but develops only when disturbed.
• Second, the state moderately, well-being suffers. There shortness of breath at rest, with soft retraction jugular fossa and the intercostal spaces. When anxiety difficulty breathing increases dramatically, there is cyanosis. The child may be excited.
• Third: the child hard, being affected significantly. Inhale can be heard in the distance, while dramatically sink jugular and supraclavicular fossa, intercostal space. Child excited, restless sharply, then it becomes inhibited. There general cyanosis.
• Fourth: the child's condition at severity. Breathing rare, superficial, spasmodic. This terminal stage.

Treatment parainfluenza

Treatment of uncomplicated parainfluenza carried out in accordance with the general methods of treatment of acute respiratory viral infections, providing patient comfort, frequent warm drink, easily digestible food.

With the development of stenosis requires immediate hospitalization of the child in the profile section for quality, and most importantly - timely assistance. Prior hospitalization is necessary to create an atmosphere of calm baby and allow to breathe fresh humid air.

Constrictive laryngotracheitis - fleeting disease, which can result in lethal within one day from the beginning, so parents should not interfere with the child's entry in the profile department with initial signs of stenosis, in which the treatment will not be as traumatic. Stenosis of the third and fourth level - an indication for resuscitation, including intubation or tracheostomy, and this requires long-term follow rehabilitation treatment, which dramatically slows further development and socialization of the child.
