There are many eye diseases, each of which is quite serious, and therefore requires an appeal to the ophthalmologist. If the doctor prescribed you eye drops Aktipol, this article may be useful. Consider the features of the drug and its effect.
Composition and action
The drug is released at a concentration of 0.007% in convenient bottles with a dropper. The main substance in the composition of drops, as the instruction for the use of Aktipol, is para-aminobenzoic acid. Water and sodium chloride were used as auxiliary components.
Actives act like drops:
- antiviral;
- antioxidant;
- immunomodulating agent.
The medicine perfectly stimulates regeneration processes, due to which the wound and corneal lesions heal faster. Drops allow to restore the water-salt balance on the surface of the mucous membrane, to eliminate the swelling caused by the action of the viral infection.
Indications for use
Instruction to the drug Aktipol allows the use of eye drops to treat a number of diseases:
- Conjunctivitis is an inflammation of the mucous eye that is caused by an infection. If its nature is viral, which often happens with a cold, then drops for eyes Aktipol will help get rid of redness and swelling, while reducing the activity of viruses.
- Keratoconjunctivitis - if the inflammation of the mucous eye is accompanied by inflammation of the cornea, Aktipol will help remove redness and painful symptoms. The disease is caused, as a rule, by the viruses herpes zoster and herpes simplex, as well as adenovirus. Consequently, the antiviral effect of drops is apropos.
- Keratopathy is a condition in which the cornea is affected so that the permeability of its cells, as well as of the cells of the conjunctiva, is impaired. The cause of such a disease can be a trauma to the eye, a transferred operation or, again, an infection. As the instruction to the drug says, Aktipol renews the permeability of cells, triggering the mechanisms of regeneration.
- Burns and eye trauma - if the cornea is damaged by thermal or mechanical factors, the Aktipol drops are irreplaceable due to their regenerating effect. It is appropriate to use them for allergies.
