Pharmacological properties

The hepatoprotective effect is due to the properties of the components included in the drug.

“Essential phospholipids” are complex substances that are diglyceride esters of phosphatidic and unsaturated fatty acids (mainly oleic and linoleic). They are an important structural element of cell membranes and membranes of hepatocyte organelles. Phospholipids regulate membrane permeability and the activity of membrane-bound enzymes, ensuring normal processes of oxidative phosphorylation. The drug normalizes the biosynthesis of phospholipids and general lipid metabolism in case of damage to hepatocytes of various etiologies. Restores hepatocyte membranes through structural regeneration and through competitive inhibition of oxidative processes: being embedded in biomembranes, unsaturated fatty acids are able to take on toxicogenic effects instead of membrane lipids. Promotes liver regeneration, stabilizes the physico-chemical properties of bile.

Indications for use

fatty liver degeneration of various etiologies, including diabetes mellitus;
chronic hepatitis;
cirrhosis of the liver;
alcohol and drug intoxication (as part of combination therapy);
