The result is the release of organic acids, for example, acetic and formic. Their purpose is to suppress the growth of existing in the intestines pathogens, significantly reduce the production of nitrogen-containing elements.

Review of the drug Lactofiltrum:

It is well known that in case of poisoning you need to drink some kind of sorbent in order to remove the toxins that poison it from the body. However, few people know that for hypertension or it is also recommended to take these drugs. Practice shows that a 7-14-day course of enterosorbents significantly improves the blood lipid formula in patients with similar diseases.

Enterosorbent drugs reduce the amount of total cholesterol, low-density lipoproteins and triglycerides.

Also, enterosorbent drugs significantly improve the well-being of patients suffering from liver pathologies, ulcerative lesions, etc.

Enterosorbents also soften allergic symptoms by absorbing allergenic substances into the gastrointestinal tract. Well-known modern and effective enterosorbent products include Lactofiltrum tablets.

Pharmacological group

Lactofiltrum belongs to the category of enterosorbent drugs that regulate the balance of intestinal microflora.

Active substance

The active ingredients of the drug are hydrolytic lignin and lactulose.

Manufacturer

The drug is produced by Russian pharmaceutical company STI-MED-SORB.

Release form and composition

The drug is produced in the form of dark brown, flat, cylindrical tablets with gray-white inclusions.

The main components of the drug are lignin and lactulose, and excipients contains magnesium stearate and croscarmellose sodium.

How does the drug work?

The drug Lactofiltrum provides a comprehensive detoxification, sorbing, prebiotic effect in the patient’s intestinal sections. Lignin provides a detoxifying and sorbing effect, and the prebiotic effect is provided by the presence of lactulose.

In addition, hydrolytic lignin gives Lactofiltrum tablets the following effects:

Antioxidant;
Enterosorbent;
Antidiarrheal
Hypolilipidemic;
Detoxifying.

Lignin binds toxic substances produced inside the body during metabolic processes, as well as those coming from outside. By binding these toxic substances, lignin retains them and prevents them reverse suction, and then removes them from the body along with feces.

In general, lignin binds medications and poisons, viral, bacterial and fungal toxins, pathogenic intestinal microflora, ammonia and alcohol, urea and cholesterol, allergens, heavy metals and radioactive isotopes, bilirubin, etc.

Lactofiltrum tablets remove these toxic compounds from the body and prevent them negative impact on the patient's body. It is this ability to remove toxins that forms the basis of the detoxifying properties of the drug.

In general, Lactofiltrum tablets have a beneficial effect on hepatic and intestinal, pulmonary and renal activity by reducing the severity of pathologies of these organs and accelerating recovery.

The sorption effect helps clear the bolus of food as it moves through intestinal tract. As a result, the patient stops intoxication as a whole, because the absorption of toxic substances from the intestines into the bloodstream stops.

Lignin has a fairly large porous area, so its absorption is quite high; it is able to bind 5-7 times more toxic substances than activated carbon.

Lactulose is a prebiotic; when it enters the intestines, it breaks down into monosaccharides, which provide a food source for normal, beneficial bacteria intestines.

As a result, healthy intestinal microflora begins to actively multiply and eliminates dysbacteriosis.

Normalization of intestinal microflora suppresses the growth and reproduction of pathogenic bacteria, reduces the formation of toxic substances, and improves peristalsis. As a result, pathological processes such as diarrhea or constipation cease.

Pharmacological properties

Lactofiltrum refers to sorbents of plant origin, used to normalize intestinal microflora and detoxify the body (toxins, drugs, metabolic products). The drug has immunomodulatory properties. Lactofiltrum contains two active components: prebiotic lactulose and lignin (natural enterosorbent).
Hydrolytic lignin, being a complex organic compound resulting from the hydrolysis of wood components, is characterized by the ability to bind on its surface and retain various inorganic and organic compounds, endotoxins, exotoxins and pathogenic microflora, salts heavy metals, allergens, alcohol, medications, as well as some metabolic products contained in excess: serotonin, bilirubin, histamine, cholesterol, urea, which can cause the development of endogenous toxicosis. Lignin is not toxic, is not absorbed into the general bloodstream, is completely excreted from the intestines within 24 hours and does not disrupt the motility and secretion of the intestinal tract.

Lactulose refers to prebiotics of synthetic origin, synthetic disaccharides, the molecule of which contains residues of galactose and fructose. Lactulose is released in the large intestine and is not absorbed into it. upper sections and in the stomach. In the colon, lactulose functions as a substrate that is fermented by normal intestinal microflora, while stimulating the growth of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. Hydrolyzing in the large intestine, lactulose forms organic acids (acetic, formic and lactic), which inhibit the growth and reproduction of pathogenic microorganisms and suppress the synthesis of nitrogen-containing toxins by pathogenic flora. Due to a decrease in the amount of nitrogen-containing metabolic products in the intestinal lumen, an increase occurs osmotic pressure, improving peristalsis and stimulating intestinal motility.
Disposal pathogenic microflora and the active development of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli ensures the restoration of colon microbiocenosis, normalization of fat, protein and carbohydrate metabolism, improving the absorption of vitamins and microelements from the large intestine, and also reduces the intensity of the endogenous toxic state.
The use of Lactofiltrum provides an increase local immunity, reducing the severity of symptoms of intoxication and allergic reactions.
