Brief summary
The significant pharmacological activity of a drug's active ingredient is not always consistent with its safety for medical use. Adverse drug reactions are common and costly for the healthcare system. In this regard, the ability to ensure the main effect of a drug without undesirable side effects is no less important than the creation of the active ingredient itself.
The paper provides a rationale for using a pharmacological activity potentializer (PAP) in pharmacological solutions that acts through the redox control system of physiological reactions. The pharmacological activity potentiator that provides physiologically adequate redox effects as part of specific therapy can restore the functioning of receptors, eliminate typical disorders of cell interactions, allow the body's own homeostasis normalization systems to eliminate disorders, and use minimal therapeutically sufficient doses of medications and optimal treatment courses.
The pharmacological effect of PAP and its pharmaceutical compatibility make it possible to create safe, patent-protected, next-generation combined drugs based on both well-known pharmaceuticals and newly developed drugs that are widely used in clinical practice. PAP promotes the pharmacological activity of biologically active chemical molecules in physiologically optimal doses.
Key words
