Preparations based on lactobacilli - “beneficial microbes” - provide their effect due to competition for nutrients and habitats with pathogenic microorganisms. “Acylact” cannot act as the only medicine for the entire course, it is an auxiliary component of the treatment regimen.
Composition and principle of action
The drug "Acylact" exists in the form of suppositories, tablets and lyophilisate for oral administration. The composition of the drug includes three varieties of lactobacilli (Lactobacillus acidophilus):
- 100ash;
- K3Sh24;
- NK1.
The detailed composition and number of CFU - colony forming units - in different forms of drug release are presented in the table.
Table - Composition and dosage of various forms of the drug “Acylact”
The form | The composition of the main | Additional components |
---|---|---|
Pills | 1 dose = 10 million CFU (107 bacteria) 3 doses = 30 million CFU (3 * 107 bacteria) | - Vitamin and mineral complexes; - squirrels |
Lyophilisate | 3 doses = 30 million CFU (3 * 107 bacteria) 5 doses = 50 million CFU (5 * 107 bacteria) | Sugar-gelatin-milk environment |
Candles | 1 dose = 10 million CFU (107 bacteria) | Fat base |
The main effect of the drug is based on the antagonistic relationship between lactobacilli and pathogenic microbes. As a result of this antagonism, the number of the latter is significantly reduced. "Acylact" has the following effects:
- restores the biocenosis of the gastrointestinal tract, vagina;
- enhances local immunity;
- has an anti-inflammatory effect;
- improves metabolic processes in tissues.
When using “Acylact” suppositories, lactobacilli, multiplying in the vagina, process glycogen and secrete lactic acid. So they maintain a low pH, which is detrimental to most pathogens. At the same time, Doderlein sticks actively reproduce in such conditions. Thus, “Acylact” gives time to lactic acid bacteria (Doderlein sticks) to regain leading positions and maintain a clean environment in the vagina.
When is the medicine used?
The main purpose of the drug is the prevention of microflora disorders in the oral cavity, other parts of the gastrointestinal tract, as well as in the vagina. Detailed indications for the use of tablets, suppositories and lyophilisate are presented in the table.

Reviews
No need to scare ACILACT, what are the side effects? All your effects are from your untreated sores, and acylact suppositories are just useful bacteria that are not enough after antibiotic treatment, they normalize the microflora, but do not cure thrush and many other diseases. I have been using them for many years if necessary and I am very pleased. Only they must be fresh and properly stored!

Atzilact began to put, and some candles are loose in consistency! And the capsules open disgustingly - almost never open normally, only cut and remove with scissors along the contour, while the candle crumbles! Shelf life did not come out, bought at a good pharmacy. Tin!

Acylact suppository was prescribed to me by a gynecologist after acute dysbiosis (microflora disturbance) of the vagina. Dysbiosis was associated with an infection, the eternal companion of which is thrush. That is, at first the doctor prescribed me candles from thrush, and then, after the course, Atzilact.
As a result, after these suppositories, my initial disease worsened, as lactobacilli acidify the vaginal environment. And some infections begin to develop actively in such an environment. Therefore, Atzilact did not help me, but hurt me. Also, in no case can you use acylact with untreated thrush, or even just treat thrush with acylact.poupees11, http: // otzovik. com / review_4252168.html
After thrush, they just appointed me. I set it, to restore microflora, they wrote to you pralno. Current must be sure that pimafucin and by the way everyone was killed. In short, pass a smear.And if the smear is ok, then put Acylact. I was wrung to go to take a smear, honestly, so after a course of pimafucin put down. Everything is fine!

Good drug. I can say for sure that with the course of 1-2 months, the condition of the intestine as a whole improves. I drink daily one tablet, as indicated in the instructions, with a view to prevention, since I often encounter symptoms of dysbiosis. After undergoing treatment for six months, the intestines do not bother.
