Heptral tablets 500mg #20 pharmachologic effect:
Geptral belongs to a group with hepatic antidepressant activity. It has choleretic and holekeneticheskoe action has detoxifying, regenerating, antioxidant, antifibrinolytic and neuroprotective properties. The drug not only makes up for lack of ademetionine in the body, but also promotes its products in various organs (especially the liver, brain and spinal cord). Ademethionine substance that occurs in almost all tissues and body fluids. Because of its chemical structure, the drug is a methyl group donor in the transmethylation reactions. Is the basis for many biochemical thiol compounds (cysteine, taurine, coenzyme A, etc.) During transsulfuration, a precursor of polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, spermine, within the structure of the ribosome), stimulates cell regeneration.

Transmethylation (transfer methyl groups) ademetionine to various substances in the body (hormones, neurotransmitters, proteins, phospholipids) is an important metabolic processes.
When observed increase in long-term use of glutamine in the liver, taurine and cysteine ​​in plasma, reducing the number of methionine in serum, suggesting that the normalization of metabolic processes in the liver and an improvement in its function.
The drug has choleretic effect by stimulating the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine in the membranes of hepatocytes and to increase their flexibility and polarization. This leads to improvement in function bile acid transport systems and promotes the release of bile acids in the biliary system. The drug promotes detoxification of bile acids through their sulfation. What contributes to their elimination by the kidneys, it facilitates the passage through the membrane of hepatocytes and excretion of bile. Before the drug is observed positive dynamics of the level of direct bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase activity, aminotranferaz. Choleretic and hepatoprotective persists for 3 months after stopping treatment.

Ademetionine content in the body of children and adolescents are significantly higher than in the elderly, as with age, its level decreases. Also, the level of ademetionine lower in people suffering from depressive syndrome. Ademetionine large concentration in the brain contributes to the metabolism of catecholamines (epinephrine, norepinephrine), indolamine (serotonin, melatonin) and histamine. The drug normalizes the methylation of phospholipids in the membranes of nerve cells, stabilizing the transmission of nerve impulses and extend the functioning of nerve cells. Experimentally proven efficacy in the treatment of Geptral depression. Antidepressant effects develops rapidly and reaches peak efficiency at 5-7 days of treatment. Before the drug Geptral ademetionine goes through the same stages of transformation that endogenous substances.
