Pharmacological properties
The drug is a combination of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) of the Omega-3 family of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and vitamin E.
The drug is used in disorders of lipid metabolism, due to severe hypertriglyceridemia, has anti-inflammatory effect. It contributes to the normalization of LDL and VLDL, changes in the liquid properties of cell membranes and increase the functional activity of membrane receptors, which contributes to the improvement of lipid-cell interaction of lipoproteins with enzymes, improvement of lipoprotein metabolism. Contributes to the normalization of blood lipid metabolism. The antiaggregate effect of the drug is associated with the replacement of arachidonic acid in the phospholipid composition of the cell membrane or with the inhibition of platelet aggregation as a result of the influence on the lipid properties of receptors with A2 / prostaglandin H2 thromboxane. Anti-inflammatory effect due to a decrease in the production of metabolites of prostaglandin E2, achieved by the inclusion in the biosynthesis of essential fatty acids. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids inhibit inflammation, reduce the ability of the arteries to vasoconstriction, reduce platelet aggregation.
This complex of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids is used to normalize lipid metabolism and reduce the risk of atherosclerosis.
Vitamin E has antioxidant activity, is involved in tissue respiration and other important processes of tissue metabolism; protects cells and tissues from the damaging effects of excess free radicals and peroxide products.
