Prednisolone is a synthetic analogue of the adrenal cortex secreted by the hormones cortisone and hydrocortisone. Unlike cortisone and hydrocortisone, prednisolone does not cause a noticeable delay in sodium and water, and only slightly increases the release of potassium. The drug has a pronounced anti-inflammatory, antiallergic, anti exudative, anti-shock, antitoxic effect.

It is active concerning a wide range of aerobic and anaerobic gram-positive and aerobic gramnegative microorganisms, including strains producing betalactamase. It is prescribed at diagnosing of bacterial infections caused by microorganisms, sensitive to drug: infections of upper respiratory tracts, bacterial infections of skin and soft tissues, infections of urogenital tract, sepsis, infection pelvic organs.
Ampicillin - Semi-synthetic penicillin, which has a wide range of effects and exhibits bactericidal effect. Suppresses the synthesis of the cell wall of bacteria: Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus spp., Bacillus anthracis, Clostridium spp., Enterococcus faecalis, Listeria spp., Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria meningitidis, Proteus mirabilis, Pasteurella multocida, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., Escherichia coli, Aerobic non-spore-forming bacteria. Acid-resistant.
A tricyclic antidepressant with a relatively short latency period. It has almost no sedative effect. therapeutical indications include: depressive phases of a manic-depressive psychosis, all other forms of endogenous depression (reactive and neurotic). In combination with amitriptyline it is used for depressions that occurred during treatment with reserpine. In combination with neuroleptics, it is used in the treatment of depression that developed during treatment of schizophrenic psychoses.
Celexa - antidepressant. Brings energy, stops feeling of alarm, reduces sensation of fear and tension, eliminates dysphoria, reduces persuasive feelings, practically does not cause sedation. The lasting clinical effect develops in 7-10 days of regular reception. The mechanism of action is connected with selective blockade of the return neuronal serotonin reuptake in synapses of neurons of CNS with a minimum effect concerning reuptake of noradrenaline and dopamine.
Lipitor refers to inhibitors of hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A-reductase. It is used to lower the level of LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) in the blood, total cholesterol, triglycerides (another kind of fat) and apolipoprotein B (protein required for cholesterol production). Lipitor is also used to increase the blood cholesterol level of HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol). It is necessary to reduce the risk of hardening of the arteries, which can lead to heart attacks, strokes and peripheral vascular diseases.
Levaquin is used to treat infections of the lower respiratory tract, urinary tract, kidneys, skin, soft tissues, chronic bronchitis, acute sinusitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis and tuberculosis. The drug is a fluoroquinolone, a broad-spectrum antimicrobial bactericide. It blocks DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, disrupts supercoiling and cross-linking of DNA gaps, suppresses DNA synthesis, causes profound morphological changes in the cytoplasm, cell wall and bacterial membranes.
The antifungal agent which has activity against dermatophytes, yeasts, dimorphic fungi and eumycetes. It is also active against staphylococci and streptococci. The therapeutical indications of the drug include: mycoses of the gastrointestinal tract, eyes, genital organs, chronic recurrent vaginal candidiasis, dermatomycosis, onychomycosis, Candida, folliculitis, dermatophytosis, systemic fungal infections (blastomycosis, candidiasis, paracoccidioides, coccidioidomycosis, cryptococcosis, histoplasmosis, hromomikoz, sporotrichosis, paronychia, fungal sepsis, fungal pneumonia); leishmaniasis; tinea versicolor, prevention of fungal infections in patients with a high risk of their development. The mechanism of action is inhibition of fungal membrane ergosterol synthesis and the violation of the cell wall permeability.
Tinidazole - an antibacterial agent for systemic intake, used for the treatment of diseases such as trichomoniasis, giardiasis, amoeba dysentery, anaerobic infection, mixed aerobic-anaerobic infections (in combination with appropriate antibiotics), prevention of postoperative anaerobic infections.
Co-Amoxiclav - co-formulated antibacterial agent, combine of bactericidal antibiotic of a broad spectrum of activity, from a group of semi-synthetic penicillin - Amoxicillin and Betalactamase inhibitor.
Sumycin - An antibiotic based on tetracycline, a brand of such pharmaceutical companies as Bristol-Myers Squibb, Apothecon, Par Pharmaceutical.
Enalapril is an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (or ACE inhibitor); administered in hypertensive pediatric patients (from 1 month old and above), adults and elderly patients for treatment
Altace, which is Antihypertensive (the reducing arterial pressure) medicine, inhibitor of angiotensine transforming enzyme. Suppressing angiotensin II synthesis, narrowing a luminal occlusion also reduces its stimulating influence on effuse of aldosteron. Increases activity of a renin in plasma. The medicine also inhibits metabolism (interferes with decomposition in an organism) of bradykinin. Medicine reduces the general vascular peripheral resistance, does not change significantly a renal blood flow.
Feldene - the drug used for treatment of inflammatory and degenerative diseases of musculo-skeletal system. NSAIDS, renders antiinflammatory, analgestic, antiaggregant and febrifugal action. Not selectively suppresses COX1 and COX2. The analgetic effect is observed in 30 min. after peroral intake, the antiinflammatory effect occurs by the end of the 1 (first) week of treatment by Feldene. After a single dose of Feldene it acts during 24 h.
Chloromycetin - the Antibiotic of a broad spectrum of activity. The mechanism of antimicrobic action is connected with disturbance of protein synthesis of microorganisms. It has bacteriostatic action. It is active concerning gram-positive bacteria. Chloromycetin is active concerning the strains steady against penicillin, streptomycin, streptocides.
Aciphex - the medicine, normalizing acidity of a stomach, inhibitor of a proton pomp. It is prescribed at gastroduodenal ulcer in the exacerbation phase, gastroesophageal reflux disease; states which are characterized by pathological hyper secretion including Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. In combination with bactericide - Helicobacter pylori eradication at patients with gastric ulcer or chronic gastritis; treatment and prevention of recurrence of an ulcer at patients with gastric ulcer related to Helicobacter pylori.
Vasotec- an antihypertensive drug based on the action of the active ingredient Enalapril, whose mechanism of action is associated with inhibition of the activity of the angiotensin-converting enzyme, leading to a decrease in the formation of the vasoconstrictor factor - angiotensin II and simultaneously to the activation of the formation of kinin and prostacyclin possessing a vasodilating action.
Exforge the combined antihypertensive which includes amlodipine and valastran. Valsartan - a specific blocker of AT1 receptors of angiotensin II. Amlodipin - calcium channel blocking agents of III generation, inhibits transmembrane receipt of Ca2+ in cardiomyocytes and smooth muscle cells of vessels, by weakening them.
