In winter, eczema and dermatitis often worsen, and in the summer season it is difficult to protect yourself from the influence of the sun. Methyluracil ointment softens the skin and makes it look healthy. The main task is to enhance the regeneration of damaged tissues. By activating cellular metabolism, it promotes rapid healing. Many women use methyluracil instead of anti-aging cream. The active component also stimulates the production of elastin and collagen. But doctors do not recommend using the ointment on an ongoing basis. It is known that it does not carry the function of full rejuvenation.
Properties of the drug:
- Methyluracil perfectly promotes the restoration of skin cells, which leads to a noticeable reduction in acne (pimples) on the face and body and reduces the development of seborrhea (dandruff).
- This drug also works well for the treatment of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract (in particular, the stomach and duodenum). Reduces the aggressive effect of protease enzymes on the gastrointestinal tract by restoring the balance of nucleotides in the mucous membranes.
- Accelerates a person’s recovery capabilities; in medical practice it is used to treat ulcers, burn injuries to the skin, as well as for wound healing, due to the appearance of epithelial skin cells.
- Eliminates inflammatory processes in the body and improves human immunity.
- Increases the production of white and red blood cells (leukocytes and red blood cells, respectively).
- When used externally in the form of ointments, in addition to the regenerating effect, there is protection from direct sunlight and ultraviolet radiation.
- According to unofficial information, the drug Methyluracil can be used as an anabolic agent to increase muscle mass, but in practice, athletes using it do not notice any positive effect on muscle growth.
- Not a single study has been conducted to prove that this drug can have an effect on increasing muscle volume. There are also no scientific articles on the anabolic properties of Methyluracil.
Properties of methyluracil ointment
Its peculiarity is the rapid healing of wounds and cracks, which is indispensable in winter. Ointment is often used instead of protective cream. She:
- has photoprotective properties, therefore preventing damage from solar influence;
- softens redness after ultraviolet radiation;
- protects from frost;
- has a beneficial effect on chapped areas;
- has an anti-inflammatory effect;
- quickly heals cracked lips.
The activity of the main substance does not cause damage to other parts of the body. The cream acts only locally and does not penetrate into tissues, so it does not enter the bloodstream or spread throughout the internal organs.
Due to the appearance of many medications on the pharmaceutical market, methyluracil silicon has deservedly lost its former popularity. But many fans are in no hurry to give up an effective means of protection. With high effectiveness, the price is low compared to other drugs, and the result is always positive.
Methyluracil dosage
In tablet form: The drug is taken with or after meals in a dosage of 0.5-1 grams - 3 to 5 times a day
(There is unlikely to be any noticeable muscle gain; the drug affects metabolism and rather serves as an additional assistant to speed up the recovery period between workouts).
In the form of an ointment, 5-10 grams of the substance are applied to a wound or burn every day until complete healing. The ointment can be used to treat internal wounds and inflammation of the colon or vagina.
In the form of suppositories, they are inserted into the vagina or rectum after cleansing procedures or emptying the large intestine. It is allowed to administer from 1 to 5 suppositories per day.
In the form of aerosol cans, shake the can before application, attach the required nozzle and uniformly spray Methyluracil in foam form onto the damaged area of the skin. It is also possible to use an aerosol can for the treatment of inflammatory processes in the female genital organs and lower intestine. The application method is the same.
The full course of using Methyluracil is from 1 to 4 months.
Methyluracil in bodybuilding[edit | edit code]
Correct the error Methyluracil -
Methyluracil
- a synthetic derivative of pyrimidine, which is part of cellular RNA and DNA (genetic material of cells). Methyluracil is present in all living beings as part of the cell nucleus. Methyluracil tablets are available in every pharmacy at a reasonable cost.

Pharmacological properties
Methyluracil accelerates cell division, mainly in the skin and mucous membrane of the digestive tract, and increases the regenerative abilities of the body. In medicine, this drug is used as a healing agent for ulcers, burns, wounds, etc. Methyluracil has also been found to have an anti-inflammatory effect and can also strengthen the body's immune function.
Sometimes methyluracil tablets are used in bodybuilding as an anabolic agent to accelerate muscle growth, but its effect on muscle growth is absent, as practice shows. Almost all athletes who use methyluracil tablets in their practice report no positive results. The drug gained fame in bodybuilding as a result of the publication of Yu.B. Bulanov’s article “Digestive Enzymes,” where the author describes methyluracil as an anabolic agent. There is not a single official study or scientific article that would confirm the anabolic effect of the drug.
A course of methyluracil is often carried out in combination with drugs such as ATP, potassium orotate, inosine, adaptogens, methionine, etc. The course duration is on average one month.

Methyluracil - the “forgotten” medicine
In this article I will talk about a unique medicine that is successfully used to treat many diseases. But at the same time, for some reason, many modern doctors “forgot” him.
This medicine is called Methyluracil .
Methyluracil was synthesized in the Soviet Union more than 70 years ago by a group of scientists led by prof. N.V. Lazareva.
This drug is unique! Methyluracil - improves immunity, accelerates healing processes, including in the mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract, has an anti-inflammatory effect, and increases the body's defenses.
Here is an incomplete list of diseases for which methyluracil can help: hemorrhoids, pancreatitis, anemia, reduced immunity, fractures, radiation, stomach and duodenal ulcers.
Methyluracil is available in different forms - in suppositories, tablets, and ointment.
HOW TO USE METHYLURACIL in TABLETS or SUPPLIES:
Methyluracil - TABLETS Cost in Russia at the beginning of 2019 on average about 150 rubles.
Indications for use:
- for the treatment of pancreatitis, gastric and duodenal ulcers;
- from anemia;
- to improve immunity;
- with a decrease in the number of leukocytes or platelets in the blood;
- after chemotherapy;
- from radiation sickness, after radiation exposure, including after radiation therapy in the treatment of oncology;
- for recovery after severe infections;
- for fractures - for faster healing of broken bones.
Methyluracil tablets can be used not only to treat adults, but also to treat children over 3 years of age.
The “fly in the ointment” is that it takes a long time to take methyluracil tablets, usually the course of treatment is 30–40 days, although this does not cause any problems - it is convenient to take the drug: you drink it during meals or immediately after meals.
Methyluracil tablets of 500 mg are taken in the following doses:
Adults - 1 tablet 4 times a day, during or after meals , children from 3 to 8 years old - half a tablet (that is, 250 mg) 3 times a day, children over 8 years old - half a tablet or 1 tablet 3 times a day.
Side effects: For many modern medications, the list of contraindications and possible side effects sometimes takes up an entire page. But when taking methyluracil, side effects are rare. Occasionally, an allergy to this drug occurs; it most often goes away quickly when it is discontinued. Sometimes you experience nausea or heartburn, dizziness or headache, usually when you start taking this drug. Moreover, for many, such headaches or dizziness go away on their own after 2-3 days of use. That is, you don’t even need to stop taking pills often.
Contraindications for use: Hypersensitivity to methyluracil or allergy to it; leukemia (leukemic forms, especially myeloid), lymphogranulomatosis, hemoblastosis, malignant diseases of the bone marrow; children's age - up to 3 years.
Methyluracil - CANDLES (rectal suppositories):
They are quite inexpensive in Russia, at the beginning of 2021 - about 30–50 rubles.
Methyluracil - CANDLES help:
- in the treatment of hemorrhoids and hemorrhoids;
- for the treatment of proctitis, anal fissures, fissures in the rectum;
- after surgery to remove hemorrhoids, suppositories with methyluracil can also be useful for faster healing. But in this case, suppositories can be used no earlier than 2-3 weeks after the operation (the timing should be clarified with the surgeon who operated on you).
For all these diseases, suppositories with Methyluracil are placed in the rectum: 1 suppository 2-3 times a day (maximum 4 times a day), and they help very quickly - many patients note improvement in the first 2-3 days.
The course of treatment averages from 5 to 14 days.
Although the course declared by the manufacturer is longer - up to 1 month, it is usually not necessary to use candles for longer than 2 weeks, since lasting improvement, as a rule, occurs faster.
The effectiveness is high - suppositories help more than 90% of patients! - except when they are used incorrectly! For example, they are inserted not into the rectum, but into the vagina (according to the advice of some sites).
Contraindications to suppositories: Allergy or hypersensitivity to the components of the drug, children under 8 years of age.
Use during pregnancy and during breastfeeding: No special studies have been conducted regarding the safety of using the drug Methyluracil in pregnant women and during breastfeeding. The drug is used during pregnancy and breastfeeding only if the expected benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus or child.
Side effects: Rarely - Allergic reactions.
Storage conditions: at a temperature not exceeding 25 °C.
INTRODUCTION of suppositories with METHYLURACIL into the VAGINA: questions and answers.
A lot of questions arise about the use of methyluracil in suppositories inserted into the vagina. On the one hand, manufacturers write that suppositories must be administered strictly into the rectum.
But some gynecologists prescribe these suppositories vaginally - inserted into the vagina. And the results often seem to be quite good.
We have nothing against such treatment. We are talking about only one thing - we found almost no bad reviews when administering methyluracil suppositories strictly “at the address” - that is, when inserting into the rectum.
But with vaginal administration, adverse reactions were much more common - although in this case there were still much more positive results than negative cases.
So it’s up to you to decide whether to use these candles for other purposes or not.
Ointments with Methyluracil help:
- in the treatment of trophic ulcers, - sluggish-healing wounds, - with photodermatitis and sometimes even with eczema. The ointment should be used strictly according to the instructions in the package.
