Abstract
The mechanisms of antiviral action of complex homeopathic medicine Euphorbium compositum are discussed. Studies with whole blood cultures of healthy probands showed that potentiated components of this preparation even individually are capable of stimulating the leukocytes to the synthesis of active interferon, a potential activator of macrophages/monocytes, which play an important role in the antiviral protection.
