Pharmacological effect Thymogen
At the site of application (skin), this substance has a regulating effect on immune responses and natural defense of the body. When reconstitution is suppressed (eg, with prolonged corticosteroid use), reconstitution is stimulated. It also improves cellular metabolism by targeting specific receptors responsible for glutamate metabolism.
