Pharmacodynamics
A drug with a combined mechanism of action that normalizes pH values of the stomach. Restores intestinal flora by biological methods: biosynthetic lactic acid and buffer salts normalize pH values to physiologically suitable for this area of the intestine indicators. As a result, unfavorable conditions are created for the development of opportunistic and pathogenic bacteria. Since the drug contains a significant amount of biosynthetic bacterial substances, the physiological function of the intestinal mucosa is improved.
In Hilak Fort, lactic acid bacteria, symbionts of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria have a beneficial effect on the function of the intestinal mucosa and help restore normal intestinal flora. Fatty acids contained in the drug have a therapeutic and preventive effect on gastrointestinal tract infections, promote intestinal absorption of water and electrolytes (sodium, chlorine). Hilak reduces the period of eradication of salmonella in infants with salmonella enteritis, as it promotes the growth of acidophilic anaerobic intestinal microflora, showing antagonistic activity against Salmonella.
Hilak promotes the growth of acidophilic microorganisms, which are antagonists of salmonella.
