Aygestin - the pharmaceutical preparation, containing synthetic analog of hormones of a yellow body of an ovary, it has a prominent effect on an internal cover of a uterus. It causes changes in an inside layer of a uterus, preparing it for implantation of an oospore, provides normal course of pregnancy, reduces contractility of a uterus, especially pregnant stimulates development of lactigerous parts of mammary glands. It is taken at treatment of a secondary amenorrhea, dysfunctional bleedings, polymenorrheas with the shortened phase of a yellow body, endometriosis, endometrial cancer, mastodynia and diffusion mastopathy.
A tricyclic antidepressant with a relatively short latency period. It has almost no sedative effect. therapeutical indications include: depressive phases of a manic-depressive psychosis, all other forms of endogenous depression (reactive and neurotic). In combination with amitriptyline it is used for depressions that occurred during treatment with reserpine. In combination with neuroleptics, it is used in the treatment of depression that developed during treatment of schizophrenic psychoses.
Vasotec- an antihypertensive drug based on the action of the active ingredient Enalapril, whose mechanism of action is associated with inhibition of the activity of the angiotensin-converting enzyme, leading to a decrease in the formation of the vasoconstrictor factor - angiotensin II and simultaneously to the activation of the formation of kinin and prostacyclin possessing a vasodilating action.
Tofranil is a drug that is very sensitive to the form of depressive disorder (glycoem depressive disorder, depressive phase of bipolar infections, depressive disorder, migraine, depression, dysthymia;
Exforge the combined antihypertensive which includes amlodipine and valastran. Valsartan - a specific blocker of AT1 receptors of angiotensin II. Amlodipin - calcium channel blocking agents of III generation, inhibits transmembrane receipt of Ca2+ in cardiomyocytes and smooth muscle cells of vessels, by weakening them.
Being a part of the medicine Allegra - fexofenadine it is an antihistamine with a selective antagonistic activity to H1-receptors without anticholinergic and blocking alfa1-adrenergic receptors; also at fexofenadine isn't observed a sedative action and other effects from the central nervous system. The antihistaminic effect of Allegra is observed in 1 hour, reaching its maximum in 6 hours, and proceeds within 24 hours. After 28 days of taking the medicine there wasn't observed the accustoming to it.
Cardizem, derivative benzothiazepine, has anti-anginal, antiarrhytmic and hypotensive effect. It is prescribed at arterial hypertension: after myocardial infarction, at patients with accompanying stenocardia when beta adrenoblockers, are contraindicative at patients with diabetic nephropathy, in cases when ACE inhibitors are contraindicated; angina of effort, Prinzmetal's angina; prevention of a coronary spasm when carrying out a coronary angiography or operation of aortocoronary shunting.
Cardura is consumed to rebalance the blood pressure within hypertension, as well as to cure benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This drug was not distinguished by a negative effect on the metabolism, which was often recorded in analogs. That's why Cardura earned positive reviews from people suffering from cardiovascular insufficiency, asthma, diabetes.
Calcium channel blocker, a derivative of 1,4-dihydropyridine, has a predominantly cerebrovasculative and antiischemic action. Prescribed for the prevention and treatment of brain ischemia on the background of subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by aneurysm rupture, expressed by brain disfunction in the elderly patients. It can prevent or eliminate spasm of vessels caused by various vasoconstrictor drugs. Improves stability and functional capacity of neurons.
Haldol antipsychotic remedy, butyrophenone derivative. It has a powerful antipsychotic effect, moderate sedation. The mechanism of antipsychotic action of haloperidol is associated with the blockade of dopamine receptors in the mesocortex and limbic system.
The oral hypoglycemic agent, which stimulates insulin release from functioning beta cells of the pancreas. Used for the treatment of diabetes mellitus type 2 under the ineffectiveness of diet, weight loss and physical activity.
Pamelor is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA, tricyclic antidepressants) of the second generation. It is used in the treatment of some major depressive disorder and nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting) in children. In addition, the drug is sometimes used for the treatment of chronic diseases such as chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic pain and migraine, and the lability in certain neurological diseases.
Pharmacological influence of Calan is explained by braking of a flow of calcium ions through the slowed-down calcic tubules of cellular covers of smooth muscle structure of vessels and a cardiac muscle. Calan is prescribed if it was diagnosed paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (except WPW syndrome), sinus tachycardia, premature atrial contraction, blinking and atrial flutter, stenocardia (inc. stress, postinfarction), arterial hypertension, hypertensive crisis, idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Actonel, which is risedronate - is prescribed for treatment and prevention of osteoporosis (post-menopausal, caused by corticosteroids), Paget disease. Risedronate binds to substance of a bone tissue, inhibits its resorption mediated by osteoclasts and reduces a bone turn (does not break process of formation of a bone). It increases the biomechanical strength and volume of bone mass. The maximum decrease in a bone turn is observed in 3-6 months, remaining at the same level during a course of treatment.
Trandate - pills, mainly used in hypertension, it is an ideal means for lowering blood pressure.The rapid action of the active substance, Labetalol, distinguishes the drug from other similar drugs according to indications. The drug has the fastest antihypertensive effect.
Betapace - beta adrenoblocker, antiarrhytmic medicine. It is taken for treatment of ventricular arrhythmia, tachycardia, supraventricular arrhythmia, tachycardia at thyrotoxicosis, angina of effort, especially at combination with tachyarrhythmias, arterial hypertension, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, prolapse of the mitral valve, prevention and treatment of myocardial infarction at stable condition of the patient.
An antispasmodic drug, which removes pain and reduces the tone of smooth muscles: gastrointestinal tract, biliary tract, uterus, it also relaxes the detrusor (direct antispasmodic and m-anticholinergic effect). Increases bladder capacity, reduces the frequency of detrusor contractions, hinders urination. Well tolerated when appointed for a long term. Used in neurogenic bladder (including detrusor hyperreflexia, multiple sclerosis or spina bifida), urinary incontinence (of idiopathic origin), nocturnal enuresis (in children older than 5 years).
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.
