Action
Pharmacology: Pharmacodynamics: Bacillus clausii (Erceflora) is a preparation composed of a suspension of Bacillus clausii spores. These spores are part of the normal intestinal flora and have no pathogenic potential. Administered via the oral route, Bacillus clausii spores overcome the gastric acid barrier due to their high resistance to both chemical and physical agents, and reach the intestinal tract intact where they are transformed into metabolically active vegetative cells.
Thoroughly the activity of Bacillus clausii, administration of Bacillus clausii contributes to the restoration of intestinal bacterial flora that has been upset by imbalances of various origins. In addition, as Bacillus clausii is able to produce various vitamins, particularly those in the B group, Bacillus clausii helps correct dysvitaminosis caused by antibiotics and chemotherapy in general. Bacillus clausii makes it possible to obtain antitoxic and non-specific antigenic activity, which is closely related to the metabolic action of the Bacillus clausii spores. In addition, the high level of artificially-induced heterologous resistance to antibiotics makes it possible to create therapeutic conditions that prevent the deterioration of intestinal bacterial flora caused by the selective activity of antibiotics, particularly broad-spectrums antibiotics, and to restore intestinal bacterial flora.
Due to this resistance to antibiotics, Bacillus clausii can be used between 2 successive administration of antibiotics. The antibiotic resistance applies to: penicillin, cephalosporin, tetracycline, macrolides, aminoglycosides, novobiocin, chloramphenicol, thiamphenicol, lincomycin, isoniazid, cycloserine, rifampicin, nalidixic acid and pipemidic acid.
