A vitamin remedy, has a metabolic effect, is not formed in the human body, but comes only with food. Participates in the regulation of oxidation-reduction processes, carbohydrate metabolism, blood clotting, tissue regeneration; increases the body's resistance to infections, reduces vascular permeability, reduces the need for vitamins B1, B2, A, E, folic acid, pantothenic acid.
Participates in the metabolism of phenylalanine, tyrosine, folic acid, norepinephrine, histamine, Fe, the utilization of carbohydrates, the synthesis of lipids, proteins, carnitine, immune reactions, hydroxylation of serotonin, enhances the absorption of non-hemin Fe.
It has antiplatelet and pronounced antioxidant properties. Regulates the transport of H + in many biochemical reactions, improves the use of glucose in the cycle of tricarboxylic acids, participates in the formation of tetrahydrofolic acid and tissue regeneration, the synthesis of steroid hormones, collagen, procollagen.
It supports the colloidal state of the intercellular substance and the normal permeability of capillaries (oppresses hyaluronidase).
Activates proteolytic enzymes, participates in the exchange of aromatic amino acids, pigments and cholesterol, promotes the accumulation of glycogen in the liver. Due to the activation of respiratory enzymes in the liver, it intensifies its detoxification and protein-forming functions, increases the synthesis of prothrombin.
It improves bile secretion, restores the exocrine function of the pancreas and the endocrine function of the pancreas.
Regulates immunological reactions (activates the synthesis of antibodies, C3-complement component, interferon), promotes phagocytosis, increases the body's resistance to infections.
It inhibits the release and accelerates the degradation of histamine, inhibits the formation Pg and other mediators of inflammation and allergic reactions.
In low doses (150-250 mg / day inwards) improves the complexing function of deferoxamine with chronic intoxication with iron preparations, which leads to increased excretion of the latter.
