Pharmacodynamics

Ectis is a complex product, the medicinal effect of which is determined by its active components.

Ascorbic acid has a pronounced oxidation-reduction effect. The latter property is due to the substance's participation in the processes of carbohydrate metabolism regulation, blood clotting, biosynthesis of steroid hormones, as well as collagen and procollagen binding, tissue healing and stabilization of capillary permeability.

Bromelains are substances that belong to the category of proteolytic enzymes. These elements inhibit platelet aggregation and also activate the function of the substance adenosine monophosphate (resulting in an antineoplastic effect). The component also has an anti-inflammatory effect, helping to activate leukocytes.

Inulin is an oligosaccharide and has a probiotic effect. The element promotes the growth of specific microbes in the colon (especially bifidobacteria). In addition, inulin reduces serum triglyceride levels - this occurs by suppressing the processes of binding low-density lipoproteins.

Ginger root helps to eliminate vomiting and nausea, stimulates appetite, reduces bloating, and also promotes bile secretion and reduces inflammation (by suppressing PG).

Artichoke leaves contain bioactive components that promote bile secretion, as well as lower cholesterol levels and restore hepatocytes.

Garden cranberries increase the secretion of pancreatic and gastric juices, and in addition, have a diuretic effect.

Actinidia chinensis contains ascorbic acid, niacin, tocopherol, thiamine and riboflavin, as well as proteolytic enzymes with potassium - all of which contribute to faster fat burning.

Interactions with other drugs

Bromelain increases the levels of the drug in the blood.

Ectis can reduce the effectiveness of coumarin anticoagulants (such as warfarin with phenprocoumon), which is why in the case of a combination of these drugs, the latter will require dosage adjustment.

In case of combination with hypoazotemic and anticholesterolemic drugs, their medicinal effect may be potentiated.
