Earth rock and pharmaceuticals

Pharmacy is an amazing field of human knowledge, because it deals with the problems of “transforming” various chemical compounds into what will then become a medicine that helps to cope with many diseases. Natural ingredients or substances that are obtained exclusively artificially are the subject of research in this field of science. It is difficult to say in what year scientists discovered one of the interesting abilities a ubiquitous component of earth's rocks - silicon dioxide in an amorphous state - has a special effect on the human body - adaptogenic, adsorbent, detoxifying.

Pharmaceutical group of the drug

All medicines belong to certain pharmaceutical groups. The drug "Polysorb" belongs to the enterosorbing substances. Its composition is extremely simple and actively works to fulfill the functionality of the drug in this direction.

Release form of enterosorbent

The drug "Polysorb" is used to cleanse the body. Reviews about it contain information that this drug is available in one form - in powder form. It is dissolved in water and taken orally. The powder has a fine, amorphous texture and its color can vary from white to light blue. It has no smell. Dissolving in water, the powder forms a suspension, which eventually settles at the bottom of the vessel.

"Polysorb" is packaged in plastic jars or bags placed in cardboard box. The weight of one package can be different: 3, 12, 25, 50 grams of powder. Moreover, the bags weigh 3 grams, which corresponds to one therapeutic dose for an adult.

Composition of the drug

The Polysorb sorbent has a simple composition - it uses silicon dioxide (Silicium dioxide), produced in a colloidal modification. This amorphous, non-porous form allows the natural mineral to be used in many areas of human activity, for example in the production of toothpaste, food additive E551 for anti-caking and anti-caking effects. And it is colloidal silicon dioxide that is the active substance of the Polysorb drug.

How does the drug work?

pharmachologic effect"Polysorb" is based on its amorphous structure and the ability to form a fine colloidal suspension with water. When taken, the resulting liquid preparation begins to work actively almost immediately, after just 2-4 minutes. "Polysorb" is not absorbed into the systemic bloodstream and does not dissolve in human organic fluids. Its functionality is based on its ability to provide sorption and detoxification effects.

As a result of the research, scientists found that this drug from the pharmaceutical group of enterosorbents is capable of binding a huge number of substances of different classes, causing diseases and have a pathogenic effect on the human body.

Highly dispersed silica (silicon dioxide) allowed the drug to obtain multifunctional non-selective properties. It removes exogenous substances from the human body (formed under the influence of external reasons) and endogenous (formed in the human body itself) toxic substances of various etiologies. These are allergens, medications, salts of heavy metals, radionuclides, poisons, alcohol, pathogenic bacteria, fungi, viruses, as well as their waste products - toxins.

It was also noted that “Polysorb” copes well with waste products of the body that, in excess quantities, cause harm. These are bilirubin, lipids (lipid complexes), urea, cholesterol. A natural colloidal sorbent can remove products of the transformation of one substance into another, which are formed during metabolic processes and can cause endogenous toxicosis.

Those who have been prescribed a natural enterosorbent by a doctor are interested in the answer to the question: “How to take Polysorb to cleanse the body so that there is no harm from it?” The drug is taken orally and, once in the gastrointestinal tract, passes this entire path unchanged, doing its job - binding and removing harmful substances.
