"Filtrum-Sti" is a medicine included in the group of enterosorbents intended for the treatment of poisoning of various origins and etiology.
What is the composition and release form of the drug Filtrum STI?
The active ingredient in the Filtrum-Sti preparation is represented by hydrolytic lignin, the amount of which is 400 milligrams per tablet. Auxiliary components: calcium stearate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, croscarmellose sodium.
Filtrum-Sti is available in dark brown, capsule-shaped tablets. Minor dark inclusions are allowed. The medicine is supplied in packs of 10 pieces. You do not need a prescription to purchase enterosorbent.
What is the effect of Filtrum Sti tablets?
The active component of the pharmaceutical product Filtrum-Sti is a substance of natural origin and is created from wood subjected to hydrolysis treatment, which results in the production of a substance containing hydrocellulose and phenylpropane.
The drug has detoxifying, antidiarrheal, antioxidant, and hypolipidemic effects.
Hydrolytic lignin is characterized by extremely high ability to adsorption and is capable of binding significant amount potentially dangerous chemical compounds present in the intestines.
Hydrolysis lignin can adsorb the following chemical compounds: salts of heavy metals, exogenous and endogenous toxins, including bilirubin, urea and cholesterol, xenobiotics, allergens, radioactive isotopes, ammonia, pathogenic bacteria, medicinal substances, ethanol.
One more important characteristic of hydrolytic lignin should be noted. This substance, like other plant fibers, can have a mild stimulating effect on the intestinal walls, which enhances gastrointestinal motility and increases the speed of movement of the contents of the intestinal tube.
The drug Filtrum-Sti helps to normalize the composition of the intestinal microflora, which increases the body's defenses, stimulates nonspecific immunity and resistance to external pathogenic factors.
Hydrolyzed lignin itself is non-toxic and is completely excreted from the body unchanged. It is not subject to systemic adsorption. Complete elimination period active substance drug from the intestines is determined by the intensity intestinal peristalsis and can range from 24 hours to 2 days.

What are the side effects of Filtrum Sti?
Due to the absence of systemic adsorption of hydrolytic lignin, taking the drug is rarely accompanied by any side effects, which most often include allergic reactions.
Long-term use of enterosorbent Filtrum-Sti, which we continue to talk about on this page www.site, can lead to the development of constipation, hypovitaminosis, which can give a very variable clinical picture. The development of hypocalcemia cannot be ruled out.
special instructions
Long-term use of the medicine (20 days or more) may lead to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Because of this, after detoxification therapy, a course of fortification is recommended.
How to replace Filtrum Sti, what analogues should I use?
Hydrolyzed oxidized lignin, Polyphepan granules, Lignofepant, Entegnin, Hydrolyzed Lignin, Lignosorb granules, Lignosorb paste, Polifan, Polyphepan paste, Lignin, Lignosorb, as well as.
Conclusion
Filtrum-Sti should be used in accordance with the indications and recommendations of a specialist. In addition, upon completion of detoxification measures, it is necessary to conduct a course of fortification, which will help increase protective forces body and normalization of immune status.

Thank you
Filtrum represents sorbent natural, natural origin which has quite long history applications in medicine. Filtrum is an easy-to-take form (tablets) of hydrolyzed lignin obtained from plant materials. Hydrolytic lignin was successfully used by regular military units of the German army to combat intestinal poisoning. Filtrum has a high sorbing capacity, binding toxins of any nature in the intestinal lumen. It is the high sorption properties and versatility of the drug that determine its effectiveness in eliminating many pathological symptoms, the appearance of which is associated with toxic effects various substances - from bacterial waste products to alcohol.
Lignin is a brown powder that is quite unpleasant to ingest. And the sorbent drug Filtrum is the same hydrolyzed lignin, but compressed into tablets, which are psychologically much easier for a person to take orally with water. Therefore, in the form of Filtrum sorbent tablets, people have the opportunity to use highly effective drug without experiencing any discomfort from it appearance and taste.
Release forms, composition and names
Today, drugs with the word "Filtrum" in the name, containing as active component hydrolyzed lignin , are produced in two dosage forms:1. Tablets (Filtrum-STI, Laktofiltrum).
2. Chewable lozenges (Filtrum-Safari).
Tablets are produced by different pharmaceutical factories, therefore they have differences in trade names finished drugs. So, today there are “Filtrum-STI” and “Lactofiltrum” tablets, which are the same drug, but produced by different companies. Lactofiltrum is often called "Lactum filtrum" or "Lacta filtrum", but these are distorted names perceived by ear. The correct name is "Lactofiltrum". Also sometimes tradename"Filtrum-STI" tablets are pronounced incorrectly, and it turns out "Filtrum-city". In this case, "Filtrum-STI" = "Filtrum City".
The drug Filtrum-Safari, which is produced in convenient form chewable lozenges with chocolate or berry flavor. This form of release is positioned as for children. But adults can also take lozenges, they just need several high dose. Children easily agree to take a tasty lozenge with pleasant taste chocolate or wild berries, which saves parents from having to persuade their child to eat the “nasty” medicine.
The active component of both Filtrum tablets and lozenges is hydrolyzed lignin, which is the sorbent itself. Lactofiltrum tablets, in addition to lignin, also contain lactulose (fructooligosaccharide), which is a prebiotic and helps lead to intestinal microflora into a state of equilibrium after resorption and elimination of toxins. Excipients contained in tablets and lozenges are as follows:
- Filtrum-STI tablets – povidone and calcium stearate;
- Lactofiltrum tablets – croscarmellose sodium and magnesium stearate;
- Filtrum-Safari lozenges – myristic and lauric acids.
Therapeutic action and effects
Lignin in Filtrum tablets and lozenges causes the following therapeutic effects drugs:
- enterosorbing effect;
- detoxification effect;
- antidiarrheal;
- antioxidant;
- hypolipidemic (reduces the concentration of cholesterol and its fractions in the blood).
Filtrum tablets and lozenges bind:
- medications;
- bacterial, viral or fungal toxins;
- salts of heavy metals;
- radioactive isotopes;
- ammonia;
- alcohol and its breakdown products;
- bilirubin;
- cholesterol;
- allergens.
Laktofiltrum tablets contain one more active ingredient– lactulose, which is a prebiotic. Lactulose enhances the growth of beneficial lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, which they produce as a result of their vital activity a large number of lactic, acetic and formic acids. These acids stop the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria and reduce the production of toxins in the intestines. These processes improve intestinal motility, eliminating constipation. Thus, Lactofiltrum combines the properties of a sorbent, as well as a drug that normalizes the intestinal microflora and suppresses the formation of toxins.
Filtrum-Safari lozenges also contain lignin sorbent and prebiotics fructooligosaccharides. Prebiotics normalize the intestinal microflora and improve its functioning. Lauric and myristic acids in the lozenges have the property of inhibiting growth and reproduction pathogenic microorganism and fungi.
Indications for use
The general indication for the use of Filtrum tablets and lozenges can be formulated as the treatment of poisonings and intoxications caused by various substances and reasons. However, due to differences in the composition of the drugs, each of them has high efficiency to treat a specific condition. Exact indications for use of each dosage form The filters are shown in the table:| Filtrum-STI tablets | Lactofiltrum tablets | Lozenges Filtrum-Safari |
| Acute poisoning with medications, poisons, alcohol, salts of heavy metals, alkaloids, etc. | Intestinal dysbiosis, including after taking antibiotics | Acute viral intestinal infection |
| Complex treatment foodborne infections, salmonellosis, dysentery and dyspepsia | Comprehensive treatment of irritable bowel syndrome | Acute bacterial intestinal infection (for example, salmonellosis, dysentery, etc.) |
| Elimination of intoxication in purulent-inflammatory diseases | Complex treatment of hepatitis and cirrhosis | "Traveller's Diarrhea" |
| Elimination of increased concentrations of bilirubin and urea in the blood in renal and liver failure | Allergic pathologies (dermatitis, urticaria) | Poisoning with poisons, medications, alcohol, toxins, salts of heavy metals |
| Comprehensive treatment of food and drug allergies | Complex therapy of acute respiratory infections | |
| Prevention of intoxication in people working in hazardous industries | Intestinal dysbiosis of any origin |
