Pharmacodynamics:

Cycloferon is a low molecular weight interferon inducer, which determines a wide range of its biological activity (antiviral, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, etc.).
Cycloferon is effective against herpes viruses, influenza and other pathogens of acute respiratory diseases. It has a direct antiviral effect, suppressing the reproduction of the virus in the early stages (1-5 days) of the infectious process, reducing the infectivity of viral progeny, leading to the formation of defective viral particles. Increases the body's nonspecific resistance against viral and bacterial infections.

Pharmacokinetics:

When taking a daily dose, the maximum concentration in blood plasma is reached after 2-3 hours, gradually decreases by the 8th hour, and after 24 hours Cycloferon is found in trace amounts. The half-life of the drug is 4-5 hours, so its use in recommended doses doesnot create conditions for cumulation in the body.
