Pharmacodynamics
Femizol is a combined drug, which is characterized by the multifaceted effectiveness of all its components.

Metabolism occurs in the liver, forming metabolites - glucuronide and paracetamol sulfate. Excretion occurs due to the kidneys.
Parabrom is a product of Xanthine metabolism, a diuretic with a high level of efficacy. Its effect is to violate the absorption of Na and Cl ions in the distal sections of the nephron tubules. This contributes to raising the level of glomerular filtration and increasing the blood flow of the kidneys. In this case, the diuretic effect is observed already within the first hour after ingestion.
Mepiramin is an ethylenediamine derivative. A characteristic effect for him is the antihistamine effect. This drug reduces the skin overgrazing and the release of exudate. In addition, his days are characterized by M-cholinoblocking atkivnost and sedation.
