Pharmacological properties:
Complexing drug. Donator of sulphhydryl (thiol) groups. Renders disintoxication (including in relation to ethanol half-decay products, heavy metals and their connections, arsenous connections) action. In clinical trials hepatoprotective and antioxidant action of Unithiolum is shown.
Active sulphhydryl groups of Unithiolum, interacting with the thiol poisons and products of half-decay of alcohol (ethanol) which are in blood and fabrics form with them non-toxic connections (complexes) which are removed with urine.
At administration of drug inside Unithiolum with a portal blood-groove gets into a liver where quickly and it is physiologically irreversible contacts acetic aldehyde that causes the subsequent removal of alcohol from other bodies and fabrics. Зорекс® activates also alcohol dehydrogenase, strengthening process of oxidation of ethanol and desintoxication of his toxic agents fermental system of a liver.
Existence in composition of the drug Zoreks® of calcium of pantothenate strengthens disintoxication action of Unithiolum. Calcium pantothenate is well soaked up from intestines and split, releasing pantothenic acid which participates in carbohydrate and a lipometabolism, stimulates formation of corticosteroids, accelerates regeneration processes.
Pharmacokinetics. Absorption. After intake of the capsule containing 250 mg of Unithiolum, Cmax of the last in blood is reached in 1.5 h and makes 90-140 mg/l. The average time of finding of drug in an organism - 9-11 h (10.16±0.39 h), including in a GIT - 15-20 min.
Calcium pantothenate is well soaked up from intestines and split, releasing pantothenic acid.
Removal. T1/2 makes 7.5±0.46 h.
About 60% of drug are removed with urine, partially - with a stake.

Features of use:
Influence on ability to driving of motor transport and to control of mechanisms
Drug does not influence performance of potentially dangerous types of activity requiring special attention and bystry reactions (driving and other vehicles, work with moving mechanisms, work of the dispatcher and operator, etc.).
Side effects:
Allergic reactions: seldom - the skin itch, a small tortoiseshell, rash on skin and mucous, swelled mucous, a genital itch, stomatitis; very seldom - emergence of allergic reaction as a Quincke's disease or Stephen-Johnson's syndrome (sudden fervescence, an indisposition, a spotty and vesicular or violent enanthesis, mucous membranes of an oral cavity, generative organs, in the field of an anus).
