The medicine is actively used for the prevention and treatment of various immune diseases, such as hepatitis C, AIDS, HIV, etc. The drug has long proven its effectiveness, which is confirmed by numerous patient reviews. The medicine can be purchased with a prescription from your doctor.
Pharmacological group
The drug has a strong immunostimulating effect of natural origin. The drug is a standardized complex salt of sodium deoxyribonucleate with iron. The product exhibits an antiviral effect against RNA and DNA containing viruses. The drug ensures the creation of antiviral, antimicrobial and antifungal immunity in the patient.
In case of recurrent herpetic infection, the duration of relapses is significantly reduced and the effect of stable remission is achieved after completing a 10-day course of therapy.
The drug can be effectively used for hepatitis C. The drug ensures the transition of the pathological process into a latent form, followed by restoration of the functional activity of the liver in the absence of viral replication. The drug helps get rid of dizziness and nausea.
When administered intramuscularly, the active components of the solution are rapidly absorbed into the systemic circulation. The maximum concentration of the active component is observed 30 minutes after administration. Half an hour after administration of the composition, distribution of the substance into tissues and organs is ensured. The product takes an active part in the process of cell metabolism.
The half-life is 1.5 days. The average duration of retention in organs and tissues is 72 hours. The drug is excreted from the human body unchanged along with feces.
Is it enough to take Ferrovir alone or is it advisable to use it in complex therapy?
It is unlikely that anyone will be able to answer this question in advance. Of course, in most cases, complex treatment gives more effective results, regardless of which medication, but it is not always necessary. In addition, such therapy will not be financially accessible to every patient.
With mono-therapy, Ferrovir clearly produces results, but in different cases they vary. Much depends on the following criteria:
- how long ago the patient became infected with the human papillomavirus;
- are there any other infectious diseases;
- how advanced the disease is;
- in what part of the body is the formation localized?
- what are the areas of affected epithelial tissue and mucous membranes.
In order to clarify all of the above points, the doctor must carefully examine the patient. He will pay attention to the warts themselves, and to their color, shape, structure, appearance, etc. Then you can figure out exactly how best to treat.

Reviews
Valeria, Chelyabinsk, 35 years old: The gynecologist prescribed this drug to me, to be honest, I was a little surprised that they were slipping me some little-known medicine, which I had heard about for the first time in my entire life. I didn’t believe that there would be a result; the lack of result contributed to the attitude. I had already decided to stop treatment and begin more effective measures, albeit radical ones, but the doctor insistently recommended waiting. In the end, the result was positive: all the warts disappeared.
Varvara, Tver, 28 years old: I’m glad that I tried this medication once - you can’t imagine how much I suffered from this terribly harmful papillomavirus! I’ve wanted children for a long time, but I can’t afford it while the infection stage is so fast. I've already tried so many different ointments - to no avail (at least for me). And Ferrovir helped, even quite quickly. There were no particularly unpleasant sensations during the injection, so I recommend it to everyone.
Alexey, Kaluga, 30 years old: Very effective product - I immediately noticed the result. Probably one of the best that I have tried (although before it I only used alternative medicine)). Ten procedures were enough to completely cure the unpleasant symptoms of papillomavirus.
Valentina, Krasnoyarsk, 25 years old: Got rid of growths - to be honest, I felt like a freak, no offense to others, I’m just very worried about my appearance, and without that, to put it mildly, I’m not a beauty ((. The doctor prescribed ten injections - it seems By the eighth year there were almost no skin problems.
