Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics

Pyrogenal is a highly active nonspecific immunomodulator of a wide spectrum of action, causing a whole complex of complex physiological and immunological changes in the body. The main one is the activation of several systems: reticuloendothelial, fibrinolytic, and hypothalamic-pituitary.

It has an adjuvant, desensitizing and anti-inflammatory effect, affects the thermoregulatory centers of the hypothalamus, and also increases the general / specific resistance of the body.

Thanks to the use of Pyrogenal, macrophages are activated and phagocytosis is enhanced; stimulates the production of interleukin-1 (IL-1), which causes the proliferation of a number of body cells (endothelial cells, fibroblasts, hematopoietic cells, etc.) and interleukin-2 (IL-2), which is necessary to maintain the growth of lymphocytes (mainly T cells); tumor necrosis factor (TNF), induction of endogenous interferon (IF), production of reactive oxygen species are stimulated. With an increase in the functional activity of phagocytes, an increase in the antimicrobial resistance of the organism occurs, which leads to an acceleration of the formation of antibodies.

Due to the activation of macrophage-monocytic cells and the cytokines secreted by them, an increase in the functional activity of the cellular and humoral immune response is noted.

Under the influence of the drug in the connective tissue, the development of fibroblasts and the formation of collagen fibers is suppressed. As a result, the cellular composition of loose connective tissue is rejuvenated, and in the nervous tissue, the formation of glial scarring is inhibited.

The use of Pyrogenal promotes the resorption of previously formed dense scars and adhesions at the sites of damage, prevents the formation of new ones, which stimulates epithelization and tissue regeneration, and prevents vascular obliteration.

Therapeutic effects of Pyrogenal:

• stimulation of hyaluronidase activity;
• improving the fibrinolytic properties of blood;
• increased activity of lysosomal enzymes;
• stimulation of the kinin system;
• ensuring an increase in tissue permeability;
• acceleration of the penetration of the drugs used into the lesion;
• promoting the process of restoring blood circulation and resorption of foci of inflammation;
• activation of the function of the pituitary gland - adrenal cortex;
• increased concentration of hormones in the blood.

Pharmacokinetics

After administration of the drug, the substance is fixed on the surface of circulating blood leukocytes (up to 85–90% of the dose). Approximately 10% remains in circulating plasma and approximately 5% is adsorbed on erythrocyte membranes.

With the introduction of Pyrogenal in the latent period (from 45 to 90 minutes), leukopenia develops, which is subsequently replaced by leukocytosis, which lasts for 24–48 hours.

The drug is excreted from the body in the urine.
