pharmachologic effect

pharmachologic effect- normalizing intestinal microflora.

Action on the body

The intestine is the largest defense system of the body, and its microflora performs many functions: it protects the intestine from colonization by bacteria unusual for it, stimulates the immune system, prevents the development of allergies (including atopic dermatitis) and inflammatory processes in the intestine, enhances the production of interferons, synthesizes vitamins groups A, B, K, folic acid, reduces intoxication of the body as a whole. The following factors contribute to the violation of the intestinal microflora: caesarean section during childbirth; artificial feeding (use of milk mixtures); taking certain medications; diarrhea (diarrhea).

It has been proven that some groups of drugs have a direct effect on the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract: antibiotics successfully fight pathogenic microorganisms, but at the same time kill beneficial bacteria. Every 3rd case of taking antibiotics causes diarrhea; NSAIDs (including drugs containing paracetamol) can cause damage to the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines, lead to inflammation, ulceration and erosion; antifungals can have side effects such as decreased appetite, nausea, constipation or diarrhea, flatulence, and abdominal pain.

An attack of diarrhea is accompanied by a partial leaching of the microflora from the intestines of the child.

Symptoms of a violation of the intestinal microflora are diarrhea (diarrhea), dyspepsia (indigestion), constipation, flatulence (bloating), nausea, belching, vomiting, discomfort and pain in the abdomen.

One way to form and restore microflora is to eat pro- and prebiotics.

Probiotics are useful live microorganisms that have a beneficial effect on the human body due to the normalization of the composition or increase in the activity of the normal intestinal microflora.

Prebiotics are food ingredients that have a beneficial effect on the human body as a result of selective stimulation of the growth and / or increase in the biological activity of the normal intestinal microflora.

Synbiotics are ingredients that are a combination of pro- and prebiotics. They have a mutually reinforcing effect on the metabolic processes in the human body.

Synbiotic Maxilac ® Baby helps to restore and normalize the intestinal microflora in children (from 4 months), especially in situations associated with the use of drugs that disturb the balance of the microflora of the child's gastrointestinal tract. Maxilak ® Baby is the first and only synbiotic that contains 9 cultures of beneficial bacteria in the concentration necessary for the intestines of a child - 1 billion (1 10 9) CFU.

Component properties

Bifidobacteria, which are also part of Maxilac ® Baby, are involved in the synthesis of amino acids, proteins and vitamins, enhance the absorption of calcium, iron, vitamin D ions.

Fructo-oligosaccharides (a prebiotic in Maxilac ® Baby) stimulate the rapid reproduction of beneficial bacteria and inhibit the development of pathogens, reduce intestinal contamination with toxins and improve its functioning, stimulate peristalsis, cleanse toxins, serve to prevent constipation and diarrhea, and contribute to the normalization of gastrointestinal functions.

Maxilak ® Baby is a synbiotic specially created for children and is available in the form of a lyophilisate, the granules of which are protected by technology MicroMURE® (Multi Resistant Encapsulation). This technology protects Maxilac ® Baby granules from the action of internal and external environmental factors, due to which most of the probiotic bacteria in Maxilac ® Baby enter the intestines, and do not dissolve in the stomach, which has a positive effect on the restoration of the gastrointestinal microflora, because. the concentration of colonies of microorganisms increases from the stomach to the large intestine.

Maxilac ® Baby does not contain casein and preservatives, so it is safe for children with allergies to products of this group.

Maxilak ® Baby can be used by children with lactose intolerance.

The composition of the synbiotic (probiotic and prebiotic).

Maxilak is a synbiotic, which is a combination of probiotic and prebiotic components.

Contains 9 cultures of beneficial bacteria and oligofructose, which are a combination of the optimal concentration of unique bacteria and a nutrient medium that helps beneficial bacteria to develop and pathogenic bacteria to die. This makes it one of the most effective means to improve the intestinal microflora.

Then, when they were discharged, I began to study the reviews - there are a lot of satisfied and grateful mothers. A modern tool that gives real results.

Previously, I did not betray the importance of which beneficial bacteria to give the child for the microflora while taking medications, and I never noticed their special effect. But now I realized for myself that there is a difference, Maxilac Baby helps better, since it not only populates the intestines with beneficial bacteria, but also contains a nutrient medium for their rapid reproduction.

There is a lot of controversy about whether there is a dysbacteriosis or not, but you must agree that the child has disorders, and from my own experience I can say that everything goes much faster with the intake of a probiotic.

Maxilak baby bought because I liked the description. Taken infrequently, the form is convenient, taking into account that it is a powder for babies, the amount of bacteria is off scale, and what else is needed to help? And most importantly, of course, the result is. Helped the kid a lot.

Usually beneficial microflora prevails, but the risk of developing dysbacteriosis always remains.

Reviews about the drug

The drug is characterized by positive feedback, both from doctors and from parents who used the drug to treat dysbacteriosis in children. Such high results are deservedly due to the high efficiency of the tool.

Reviews of pediatricians

Doctors note the following positive characteristics of Maxilak baby.

  1. With dysbacteriosis, the drug quickly exerts its effect. This is very important, because for babies, the fact of dehydration is very important, when fluid is excreted from the body along with loose stools and vomiting. Maxilak baby quickly stops the pathological process, stops the development of pathogenic microflora.
  2. Unique composition in comparison with analogues. According to pediatricians, none of the popular drugs in this group, such as Linex, Acipol, have such properties, and the Bifiform drug has only two active ingredients against the nine that are contained in the Maxilac drug.
  3. The presence of a prebiotic. Of great importance for the treatment of dysbacteriosis is oligofructose, which is contained in Maxilac, but it is absent in Linex and Bifiform.

Doctors do not give negative reviews about the drug, but they always warn parents about the possibility of an allergy to the medicine. At the same time, allergy is an individual feature of the body of a child who did not fit the medicine, but this does not make it possible to talk about the negative impact of the drug on the body of children.
