Pharmacological properties

A complex preparation based on bee products containing a phenolic hydrophobic preparation of propolis (fgpp) and flower pollen. FGPP includes flavonoids (apigenin, luteolin, robidanol), flavonols (quercetin, kempferol), oxycoumarins, phenol carboxylic acids. flower pollen contains proteins and free amino acids, nucleic acids, lipid components (triglycerides, phospholipids, unsaturated fatty acids), phytosterols, vitamins (β-carotene, e, c, b1, b2, pp, etc.), macro- and microelements ( potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, cobalt, phosphorus, manganese, sulfur, silver, nickel, sodium, chlorine, etc.), phenolic compounds (catechins, flavonoids, anthocyanins, leukoanthocyanins, aurons, chalcones and phenolic acids), phytohormones (brasins), carbohydrates (mainly fructose and glucose), enzymes. the composition of the drug determines a wide range of its pharmacological properties - anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, membrane-protective, painkillers, reparative activity and a corrective effect on the level of androgens. The pharmacological effects of FGPP and flower pollen provide an effect on the main links in the pathogenesis of prostatitis: they contribute to the regeneration of prostate cells, reduce the severity of pain and eliminate the inflammatory reaction.

The drug has no toxic effect on spermatogenesis. It does not affect the cellular and humoral immunity, does not have a locally irritating, mutagenic, cumulative, ulcerogenic effect.
