The active substance of altabor tablets is the substance of the dry extract of the suppositories of gray alder and sticky alder, which contains a mixture of elagotannins of mono- and oligomeric origin based on phenolic acids (ellagic, gallic, dilactone valonic acid). These polyphenolic compounds have antiviral properties against the influenza virus, vesicular stomatitis and herpes simplex. The mechanism of antiviral action of altabor consists in the induction of interferon synthesis, suppression of the activity of neuraminidase of the influenza virus, as well as virus-specific thymidine kinase of the herpes virus, which leads to the termination of the synthesis of viral DNA. Additional pharmacological properties of altabor include antibacterial action against gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis) and gram-negative(Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella) microorganisms. The pharmacological properties of the drug are due to antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, membrane-stabilizing and analgesic effects, which enhances the pharmacotherapeutic properties of the drug in the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections and influenza, which are often complicated by bacterial infection and are accompanied by inflammation and pain.
