1. What is Uro-Vaxom and what is it used for
Uro-Vaxom contains a lyophilized bacterial lysate of Escherichia coli, most commonly responsible for urinary tract infections.
In animals, after administration of Uro-Vaxom, increased resistance to experimentally induced infections has been demonstrated, resulting from the activation of macrophages, B lymphocytes, immunocompetent cells in Peyer's patches, and an increase in the level of secretory IgA in the intestines.
In humans, Uro-Vaxom stimulates T lymphocytes, induces the production of endogenous interferon, and increases the level of secretory immunoglobulin IgA in urine.
Uro-Vaxom is used for:
- preventing recurrent lower urinary tract infections
- supportive treatment of acute urinary tract infections in children from 4 years of age and in adults.
2. Important information before taking Uro-Vaxom
