Composition and release form of the drug
Bifidumbacterin belongs to monocomponent drugs... The main active substance preparation - live bifidobacteria in the form of a dried mass (antagonistically active strain of Bifidobacterium bifidum No. 1, filling a healthy intestinal microflora person).
One dose of the product contains 107 or more CFU of these microorganisms.
It also contains lactose, which promotes the growth of bifidobacteria, and Activated carbon- a sorbent filled with microorganisms.
Bifidumbacterin has a variety of release forms
- Powder.

- Capsules.
- Vaginal suppositories.
The powder is packed in bags made of multilayer metal-polymer material. One carton contains from 10 to 30 sachets medicinal substance... The powder looks like a light gray or dark gray substance with black blotches of activated carbon fragments and a weak fermented milk smell.
The composition of one package of Bifidumbacterin:
Important! What form of drug release will be the most effective for each patient can only be determined by a specialist.
Indications for the use of Bifidumbacterin
Powdered Bifidumbacterin for adults and children is used when:
- Difficulty stool (constipation)
- acute intestinal infections of a clear and unspecified etiology (shigellosis, salmonellosis, enterocolitis);
- foodborne toxicoinfections;
- chronic pathologies of the digestive system with concomitant dysbiosis (ulceration of the stomach, duodenal ulcer, pancreatitis, liver disorders, cholecystitis);
- allergies, pneumonia, bronchitis, ARVI, diseases genitourinary system accompanied by a disturbed balance of intestinal microflora;
- intestinal dysbiosis, diarrhea, often occurring after prolonged antibiotic therapy, antibacterial treatment, hormonal agents, NSAIDs.
The drug can also be used for prevention purposes.
The probiotic helps to prevent the development of pyoinflammatory diseases before and after surgical intervention in the area of digestive tract, staphylococcal infections in maternity hospitals, respiratory diseases infectious origin, dysbiosis in patients who often suffer from acute respiratory viral infections and colds (more than 4 episodes within one year).

The resulting composition must be used without waiting for it to completely dissolve.
Attention! It is forbidden to dilute the powder in hot water... This leads to the death of bifidobacteria and the lack of therapeutic effects.

Output
Bifidobacteria for newborns, older children and adults are a must normal functioning immunity, digestion, elimination of toxins... In spite of a large number of more expensive modern drugs Bifidumbacterin remains the most commonly prescribed by doctors.
Bifidumbacterin refers to drugs that normalize the intestinal microflora. This drug acts as a kind of "migration service" that regulates the "national" composition of the microbial population inhabiting the intestines. After all, it is no secret that the species composition of bacterial microflora is unstable and, under certain circumstances, the balance can be shifted towards pathogenic or opportunistic microorganisms. Everything happens almost like in real life: when the number of labor migrants from third world countries reaches a critical mass, expect social unrest. With regard to the digestive tract, these "disturbances" are expressed in the development of various intestinal infections. Infectious intestinal invasions, in turn, trigger inflammatory and degenerative processes in the gastrointestinal tract, cause intestinal dysbiosis, contribute to impaired motility of the digestive tract and, in most cases, tend to go to chronic stage... Antibacterial drugs (including, of course, antibiotics), widely used to eliminate intestinal infections, often carry one or another adverse reactions: severe allergies, persistent dysbacteriosis, the formation of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains (which later cannot be broken even afterwards - any treatment will be useless), oppression cellular immunity etc. In this regard, the efforts of infectious disease specialists to the present stage the development of medicine is aimed at the permissible limitation of antibiotic therapy and a gradual departure from these sometimes irreplaceable, but very "problematic" drugs.
Bifidumbacterin in some cases can be used as an adequate alternative antibacterial drugs... First of all, bifidumbacterin is a probiotic, i.e. a drug that contains live microorganisms that normally inhabit the human intestine. Moving along the "nooks" of the digestive tract, these bacteria artificially introduced into the body retain their activity and in every possible way contribute to the maintenance of a normal internal "microclimate", modifying the composition of microflora and affecting its metabolism. Bifidobacteria, which are part of bifidumbacterin, are antagonistic towards many pathogenic and facultative pathogenic microorganisms (here we can mention staphylococci, enteropathogenic Escherichia coli, Proteus, Shigella, a number of yeast-like fungi, etc.). Bifidobacteria restore the balance of the intestinal and vaginal microflora, optimize the digestive and protective functions of the intestine, and increase the body's nonspecific resistance.
Bifidumbactein is available in four dosage forms at once: tablets, vaginal and rectal suppositories (one form, but both routes of administration can be used), powder for oral administration and topical application and a lyophilisate for preparing a suspension. The dosage regimen depends on the purpose of using the drug and the dosage form. When preparing a solution of bifidumbacterin, it is not recommended to use water heated above 40 ° C. Reception oral forms the drug is not compatible with taking antibiotics.

Bifidumbacterin: what is this drug
Bifidumbacterin belongs to the group of eubiotics, that is, preparations containing representatives of the normal intestinal microflora. This is a lyophilized mass of bacteria Bifidobacterium bifidum in the nutrient medium on which they were grown. Thanks to a special gentle method of drying, bifidobacteria in the human intestine quickly restore their activity and begin to actively multiply. At the same time, they secrete substances that inhibit growth, or even completely lead to the death of opportunistic and pathogenic bacteria, as well as Candida fungi that cause. During its life cycle artificially derived bifidobacteria form in the intestine a favorable environment for the reproduction of its own beneficial microflora. As a result, against the background of treatment with this drug, the microbial balance is restored much faster, and the symptoms of dysbiosis disappear.
