There is a definite group of medicinalmeans that have the ability to fight inflammatory diseases, without affecting the body as a whole. This feature is an obvious plus, since most pharmaceuticals lead to the development of dysbacteriosis, as a result of which the balance between harmful and beneficial microorganisms located on the mucous membranes and skin integuments is disturbed.
Ointment "Levomekol", the application of which is also notharms the body, has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and regenerating properties. In addition, it has hypertonic action.
The drug "Levomekol", the use of whichis carried out externally, contains methyluracil and levomycetin. These components are basic. The composition of the medicament in question also includes ethylene glycol, which is an additional substance.
Levomycetin is an antibiotic with a wide spectrum of action. It has a harmful effect on pathogens, including streptococci, staphylococcus, E. coli and others.
Antimicrobial action of levomycetin is inviolation of protein synthesis produced by pathogenic microorganisms, which leads to their destruction and, accordingly, to death. As a result of scientific research, it was found that the stability of infectious pathogens to this substance develops slowly enough.
It is necessary to take into account the fact thatthis component can have a poisonous effect on the hematopoiesis system (as a result - a decrease in the number of white and red blood cells). Levomycetin in large volumes can cause mental disorders and confusion. That is why the drug "Levomekol" when breastfeeding (as well as during pregnancy) is not assigned.
Let us consider in detail the second active componentmedicament - methyluracil. It is able to stimulate metabolic processes occurring in cells, it has a beneficial effect on the healing of various wounds, restores tissues and eliminates the focus of inflammation.
Methyluracil also has an effect onimmunity. First, it strengthens the resistance to diseases by stimulating the production of an additional volume of blood cells that protect the body (leukocytes). Secondly, it activates the production of a special protein - interferon, which has immunostimulating, antiviral and other biologically active qualities.
"Levomekol" ointment, the use of which is so popular, also includes polyethylene glycol. This element provides the adsorbing property of the drug and its stability.
It is noted that the joint impact of allsubstances that are part of Levomecol, enhances the therapeutic effect of individual components of the drug. That is why the drug in question retains antibacterial activity even in the presence of necrotic masses formed in the process of decay and pus.
