Aflubin
Everyone knows the widely advertised “Bittner Balm”. But aflubin has not yet reached the same level of popularity. Meanwhile, this is actually a brother of the above-mentioned balm, produced by the same manufacturer and also presented with natural ingredients. So, it’s time to get acquainted: aflubin is a homeopathic herbal medicine used as a prophylactic or as part of complex therapy for the treatment of colds. It is a complex recipe of four ingredients, the action of which is aimed at eliminating the symptoms of inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract: gentian, aconite (plant components), iron phosphate and lactic acid. The effectiveness of aflubin in the prevention and treatment of acute respiratory viral infections and influenza has been confirmed in a number of clinical trials, and to date, practitioners have at their disposal sufficient knowledge regarding the use of the drug in both adult patients and pediatric patients. The action of aflubin is complex. The drug has an immunomodulatory effect, helping the body build reliable protection against bacteria and viruses and reducing the likelihood of complications. Aflubin is also characterized by a local anti-inflammatory effect, manifested in relation to the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract, detoxification and mild antipyretic effect. The mildness of the latter is expressed in maintaining body temperature at the initial stage of ARVI at a level of 38 ° C, which promotes the activation of general protective factors, such as: the formation of interferon, stimulation of phagocytosis, and lymphocyte differentiation. The immunomodulatory effect of aflubin is largely based on the induction of the body’s production of its own interferon.
As studies have shown, activation of interferon synthesis clearly manifests itself already in the 3rd hour from the moment of taking the drug and makes itself felt for at least another 72 hours after stopping taking it. When carrying out the prevention of ARVI and influenza with aflubin in children's and adult groups of patients in a clinic, according to various data, it was possible to reduce the incidence of illness by 3-14 times compared with groups of patients who did not take the drug. The use of aflubin for ARVI doubled the rate of regression of disease symptoms. A significant improvement in the general condition of patients was observed already on days 2-3 from the start of taking the drug, while in control groups patients still experienced clinical manifestations of infection on days 5-7. In addition, in the control “non-aflubin” groups, in 1 out of 10 cases, certain complications of ARVI necessarily developed in the form of pneumonia, otitis, sinusitis, etc., which was not observed in persons taking aflubin.
Aflubin is available in two dosage forms: drops in alcohol and tablets. In both cases, the drug should be taken orally half an hour before or 1 hour after meals. Then specific nuances begin: before swallowing, it is recommended to hold both drops (20-30 seconds) and tablets in the mouth (until complete resorption). The drops can be used undiluted, but given their alcohol base, it is permissible to dilute them with water in a tablespoon (adults and adolescents) or a teaspoon (children under one year old). Almost all sources note the good tolerability of this drug, which is capable of naturally, without exerting virtually any toxic effects, activating the body’s own protective barriers against the penetration of bacterial and viral infections into it.

To relieve symptoms, children are often prescribed homeopathic medicines, including Influcid , Tonzilotren , Umkalor , Faringomed , Broncho-gran , Agri , Gripp-Heel and Aflubin .

- “... I have noticed more than once that colds are easier and without complications (I mean cough) if I immediately start giving my daughter Aflubin.”
