E.A. Agafonova, A.А. Nikulina, L.L. Petrenko, E.P. Shlenchak

Abstract


We consider it is reasonable to use symptomatic therapy in all cases of uncomplicated acute respiratory viral infections, which are self-eliminating diseases. Herbal preparations is an important part of such treatment in children who suffer from acute respiratory diseases, but only in case of ­using those herbal products that have a high efficacy and safety profile. This article provides new data on polyvalent (antiviral, antimicrobial, immunostimulating and antitussive) properties of EUCABAL® herbal remedies in the treatment of acute respiratory infections in children.
