Fosamax - drug for treatment of Paget disease, osteoporosis at women in a postmenopause, osteoporosis at men, a hypercalcemia at malignant tumors. Active alendronate ingredient - non-hormonal specific inhibitor of an osteoclastic bone resorption, suppresses osteoclasts. Taking of Fosamax stimulates bone formation, recovers positive balance between a resorption and recovery of a bone, progressively increases the mineral density of bones, promotes formation of a normal bone tissue with normal histologic structure.
Capoten suppresses activity of angiotensin-converting-enzyme therefore angiotensin-I turns into angiotensin II - substance which has strong vasoconstrictive action. Capoten reduces secretion of Aldosteronum in suprarenal cortex, at the same time the delay of sodium and water in an organism decreases. Capoten slows down process of bradykinin destruction and promotes increase of E2 prostaglandin, and also nitrogen oxide that causes vasodilating action. Thanks to these effects it is decreased the increased arterial pressure, the general peripheric resistance decreases, pressure in the right auricle, in a small circle of blood circulation decreases and cordial emission increases.
Cilostazol - reversibly oppresses aggregation of thrombocytes caused by various incentives, surpassing in this respect Аspirin, Dipiridamolum, Тiclopidine and Pentoxifylline. It also inhibits formation of arterial blood clots and proliferation of smooth muscle cells, possesses vasodilating action.
An antimalarial drug that acts on the erythrocyte forms of the pathogens of human malaria. It is effective against pathogens of malaria, resistant to other antimalarial drugs (chloroquine, proguanil, pyrimethamine, combination of pyrimethamine with sulfonamides).
Shallaki offers a herbal cure for sore joints and is based on an extract from Boswellia serrate. Completely natural origin of the medicine guarantees its safety and pure benefits for the body. It is a powerful auxiliary remedy applied in the treatment of arthritis as well as prevention of joint conditions. Shallaki alleviates pain and swelling in areas of inflammation and lowers the overall level of triglyceride and cholesterol with high efficiency.

Trileptal is used to treat simple and complex forms of partial epileptic seizures that have secondary generalization (possibly without it) beginning at the age of one month; generalized tonic-clonic forms of epileptic seizures in patients from two years of age. Reviews about Trileptal have a positive connotation, which allows to determine its effectiveness in use, thanks to patients who have experience of taking the drug.
A lipid-lowering agent. Reversibly inhibits HMG-COA reductase, inhibits the cholesterol synthesis at the stage of mevinolinic acid and moderately reduces its intracellular concentration. The indications for the drug use include: primary hypercholesterolemia mainly of IIa and IIb types, under the ineffective diet treatment in patients with increased risk of coronary atherosclerosis, hypercholesterolemia combined with hypertriglyceridemia; prevention of coronary artery disease. The drug decreases the risk of myocardial infarction, the need for revascularization of the myocardium, deaths from cardiovascular system diseases.
Cardizem ER - extended release tablets with diltiazem. Antiarrhytmic action is caused by learned suppression of transport of Ca2+ in heart tissues that leads to lengthening of the effective refractory period and delay of carrying out in AV nodosity. Hypotensive action is caused by dilatation of resistive vessels and decrease in TPR. Extent of decrease in arterial blood pressure is correlated with its initial level. It has the minimum influence on smooth muscles of GIT. During long (8 months) therapies tolerance does not develop.
Combivir - the antiviral combined medicine. Lamivudin and zidovudine are highly effective selective inhibitors of HIV-1 and HIV-2. Lamivudin is a synergist of a zidovudine concerning oppression of replication of HIV.
Hydrea - antineoplastic medicine, antimetabolite, slows down DNA synthesis. It is used for treatment of acute and chronic myelogenous leukemia, osteomyelofibrosis, erythremia, essential thrombocythaemia, thrombocytosis associated with myeloproliferative syndrome, lymphogranulomatosis, melanoma, ovarian cancer, horionepitelioma of uterus, tumor of the head and the neck, tumor of brain, an acute lymphoblastic leukosis at children, a colon cancer, a prostate cancer, cancer of a lung, cancer of a neck of uterus (for increase in efficiency of radiation therapy).
Isoptin is a calcium ion antagonist of the phenylalkylamine group. It improves myocardial perfusion, eliminates coronary spasm, reduces myocardial oxygen demand. It is used for diseases of the cardiovascular system.
Diabecon is aimed at increasing peripheral glucose intake, restoring B cells, increasing C – peptide levels. Diabecon has antioxidant properties, protecting cells from oxidative stress. The drug eliminates the painful symptoms of diabetes: polyuria, fever, burning feet and hands. Symptoms are eliminated not immediately after administration but within two to three weeks. This is due to changes in chemical processes in the body that cause symptoms of the disease. Diabecon naturally reduces craving for sweets, restores the patient's appetite, normalizes the functions of liver and kidney.
An antituberculosis drug which acts bacteriostatically; it enters the actively growing cells of mycobacteria by inhibiting RNA synthesis, interferes with cellular metabolism, causing cessation of reproduction and death of bacteria. Active only in relation to the intensively dividing cells. Inhibits the growth and reproduction of tuberculosis mycobacterium resistant to streptomycin, isoniazid, PASK, ethionamide, kanamycin. In the conditions of monotherapy, the resistance of mycobacteria develops fast enough.
The drug dilates coronary vessels (mostly arterioles) and causes a significant increase in volumetric blood flow velocity. Increases the content of oxygen in venous blood of coronary sinus and its absorption by myocardium. Promotes the development of collateral coronary circulation, reduction in a systemic vascular resistance, improves microcirculation, has angioprotective action.
Cordarone - antiarrhytmic drug of III class (repolarization inhibitor). Possesses also anti-anginal, coronarodilator, alpha and beta, adrenoceptor blocking and hypotensive action. The anti-anginal effect of Cordarone is caused by coronarodilator and anti-adrenergic action, reduction of need of a myocardium for oxygen.
Dramamine is an antihistamine drug that reduces the effect of the natural chemical histamine in the body. Dramamine is used to treat or prevent the occurrence of nausea, vomiting, and dizziness associated with motion sickness.
Aggrenox - the combined antiplatelet agent. There are two active ingredients - acetilsalicylic acid and dipiridamol. Action of such combination is caused by different biochemical mechanisms. Aggrenox is prescribed for secondary prevention of ischemic stroke which proceeds as thrombosis. Medicine is also effective for prevention of transitory ischaemic attack.
