Which is better: Allochol or Chophytol?

Allochol, like Chophytol, is designed to treat liver and bile duct pathologies. Its basis are Activated Carbon (enterosorbent), bile, garlic bulbs of inoculum and leaves of nettle dioecious.
The drug has choleretic properties (it has a cholekinetic effect and causes a moderate choleretic effect), enhances the secretory function of the liver, reflexively increases the motor and secretory organs of the digestive system, improves the digestive process in general and, in particular, emulsifies edible fats, reduces the cholesterol precipitation probability from the subsequent formation of stones.
Active components of Allochol also contribute to suppressing the processes of fermentation in the intestinal tract and thereby reduce flatulence.
Allochol is prescribed for the treatment of cholangitis, chronic reactive hepatitis, DZHVP, postcholecystectomy syndrome, atonic constipation.
Cholagogue agents are prescribed only in the absence of signs of inflammation. The choice in favor of a given drug is made taking into account the type of dysfunction, and also depending on how quickly you need to get a positive result from therapy.
Both Allochol and Chophytol are true choleretics, since both increase the secretion of bile and stimulate the formation of bile acids, but Chophytol besides choleretic has also a protective effect.
Proceeding from this, it can be concluded that the use of bile-containing drugs is expedient if it is necessary to conduct long-term course treatment with biliary dysfunction, the choice is in favor of Chophytol in situations when the patient simultaneously diagnoses liver pathology.

Chophytol in pediatric practice

In pediatrics solutions for oral / parenteral administration are prescribed without age restrictions, tablets for children over six years of age.
Indications for use in children are acute or chronic hepatitis, chronic stone cholecystitis, fatty hepatosis, motor disorders and a decrease in the tone of the gallbladder and its ducts, an increase in the concentration of acetone in the blood, intoxication (salts of heavy metals, nitrates, etc.), oliguria, chronic renal failure , chronic nephritis, skin diseases (acne in adolescents, psoriasis, etc.), dyspeptic disorders, obesity, jaundice of newborns.
Children over the age of twelve are scheduled to take pills at the same dose as adults. The daily dose of tablets Chophytol for children 6-12 years - 600 mg (the dose should be divided into three doses).
The optimal dosage form for newborns are drops. According to the instructions for Chophytol, for infants it is necessary to measure 5-10 drops of medication for each dose. The medicine is given on an empty stomach 3 r. / Day .. Before giving the child Chophytol in drops, the required dose is preliminary dissolved in 5 ml of water.
Teenagers over the age of twelve 2.5-5 ml of the solution are bred in 1 tbsp. l. water. Children under the age of twelve are required to take 2-3 milliliters (depending on the age and indications) for a similar volume of water. Take this dose should be 3 r. / Day. 20 minutes before meals.
Reviews of Chophytol for children indicate that the drug not only copes very well with the task, but is also very well tolerated by small patients. In addition, the drug is very convenient to use and easy to dose, which is very important when it comes to treating infants.
For newborns, the reviews are a confirmation, the drug is prescribed primarily in cases where the child has a long period of physiological jaundice.
Excessive increase in the concentration of bilirubin in the blood with pathological jaundice is dangerous because it can lead to the development of noninfectious damage to the structures of the brain.
The timely use of Chophytol for newborns helps normalize liver function and biotransformation of insoluble toxic indirect bilirubin in a non-toxic direct. The mothers of small children note that the child's bilirubin decreased on average by the ninth day of life, and by the end of the second or third week the symptoms of jaundice completely disappeared.

Chophytol in pregnancy

What is the prescription for the drug?
What is Chophytol for pregnancy? The instructions state that the use of Chophytol in pregnant women is allowed according to the doctor's prescription and provided that the expected result of treatment exceeds the probable risks to the fetus or the child.
In the first months of pregnancy, the drug, with the available risk factors prescribed for the prevention of late gestosis, as well as to ease the condition of women with early toxicosis. There is evidence that the inclusion of Chophytol in the treatment of pre-eclampsia contributes to improving the clinical course of the disease.
In pregnancy, the drug acts as an antioxidant and hepatoprotector. It reduces oxidative degradation of lipids under the influence of free radicals, improves the metabolism of fats, protects the liver and facilitates its work, stimulates the formation and excretion of bile, has a mild diuretic effect, lowers cholesterol in the blood, improves blood and microcirculation (including the placenta) .
Despite the fact that the drug is not a special gynecological or obstetric agent, it is used to improve the condition in liver pathologies, atherosclerosis, inflammatory diseases of the urinary tract.
Against the background of the application of Chophytol, the overall well-being of pregnant asthenic type also improves. Women are much less likely to be disturbed by weakness, dizziness, mood swings, drowsiness, and CNS excitability decreases.
One of the problems of pregnant women is fluid retention in the tissues. Because of this, pregnancy is often complicated by quite serious pathologies. Chophytol also improves the functioning of small vessels and kidney function, thus preventing the development of edema and dropsy.
Nevertheless, it must be taken into account that the preparation does not possess antiseptic and antibacterial properties. Therefore, if there are signs of inflammation during a blood test, Chophytol alone is not enough. Along with it it is necessary to take uroseptic medications permitted for pregnant women.
Reviews of Chophytol during pregnancy are more often good. Most women claim that the drug helped them well in case of toxicosis, heartburn and edema. However, there are also such reviews, which note that the result was not noticeable even after the completion of the full course.

If you examine the feedback of doctors about Chophytol, then we can conclude that the remedy is effective in chronic cholecystitis and, in addition, works well in disorders of liver function. As a hepatoprotector, the drug is most often used to eliminate the effects of toxic liver damage (including drug damage).

For older children, the medicine is prescribed for the treatment of diseases of the bile duct and gall bladder, as well as for the elimination of dyspeptic symptoms, for newborn children - for the treatment of physiological jaundice.
Most mothers give good reviews about the drug, because it has a natural composition, is well tolerated by children and is easy to use.

For the sake of justice, it should be noted that negative reviews about Chophytol are single. Mostly they are left by people who are dissatisfied with the fact that the medicine has not relieved them completely of the disease, but only temporarily removed the symptoms.
