The effect of the drug contributes to the rapid reduction of clinical manifestations of viral diseases, accelerates the process of reconvalescence( functional and anatomical restoration of affected organs), increases the body's resistance to the action of pathogenic microflora.

The use of groprinosin as an auxiliary medicine for the treatment of infectious lesions of the skin and mucous membranes, provoked by the herpes virus of the first and second type, promotes their faster healing than with traditional drugs. There is a more rare occurrence of new erosions, vesicles, edema and relapse of the disease.

Once ingested, groprinosin, which has excellent bioavailability, is absorbed very quickly( the patient's body absorbs more than 90% of the drug).The maximum active active substance content in the blood plasma is reached in sixty minutes after taking the drug.

Two hours later, inosine pranobex in the blood is no longer detected. The curative( antiviral and immunostimulating) effects of the medication begin to appear within thirty minutes after its application.

From the patient's body, gropinosin, remaining unchanged, is excreted through the kidneys. The low toxicity of this drug makes it possible to use it for the treatment of elderly patients and patients with heart failure.

In some cases, this( with intermittent drug intake) treatment can last from one month to six months.

Reviews of doctors and patients

Maria:

During the comprehensive examination in my body, an oncogenic virus of HPV 16 and a large amount of condyloma was detected. For half a year I took the drug Groprinosin, appointed by the attending physician. Under the influence of this medication, old condylomas ceased to grow;the appearance of new ones is also not observed. As the doctor explained to me, course therapy had a preventive effect.

Anastasia:

After completing the medical examination, I found out that I own an E7 oncoprotein and bear two human papillomaviruses at once: HPV 16 and HPV 18. As the main medication, Groprinosin was prescribed( although the doctor who prescribed the drug called it not very effective).During the first days of treatment, I had complaints about a complete lack of appetite. After passing the course treatment, I was happy to learn that all the tests on HPV showed a negative result. My condition has improved significantly. Having felt the effect of groping on myself, I can say with certainty: this drug helped me to strengthen immunity and completely get rid of dangerous viruses.

Svetlana:

Accepted groprinosin as prescribed by an immunologist. The result is very satisfied. I would like to repeat the therapeutic course. It remains only to clarify the dosage of the drug: my doctor said that this time it will be slightly different.

Maria:

After receiving the results of blood tests( we handed them over for viruses), the pediatrician appointed my child a groin. We drank three courses at once( according to the scheme: ten days we take the drug, we rest for ten days).As a result, my baby, who did not get out of bronchitis( he had to treat with antibiotics), began to get sick much less often.

Cyril:

I used to treat groats and sore throats: the drug helped me to get up quickly. This time the attending physician appointed him to treat a viral infection. In the first two days, the medicine acted effectively: it brought down the temperature, helped to improve the condition. On the third day, the temperature rose again( it keeps at 37 degrees).Treatment continues.
