Characteristics of components
Now let's give a brief description of the main components of the drug.
Sabina or Cossack juniper. It contains an oil similar to turpentine, which is a mixture of terpenes: pinene, cadinene, thujone, camphene, terpinene; wax, resin, pinikirin glycoside; malic, formic and acetic acid. Often used for uterine bleeding and miscarriages, to regulate the tone of the uterus, increases the regeneration of the genital organs after childbirth and promotes the release of the placenta.
Pulsatilla pratensis or meadow lumbago. The composition of this plant includes: saponins, ranuculin glycoside, potassium sulfates. Of these components, the most valuable and effective is ranuculin, which is able to influence the pituitary gland and parasympathetic nervous system, thereby controlling the formation of gonadotropin hormone, oxytocin and prolactin. All this controls the process of development of the genital organs, stimulates the secretion of milk, and helps the smooth muscles of the uterus actively contract during the birth process. Ranuculin is included in many drugs intended to treat diseases of the female reproductive system. Prescribed for inflammation of the ovaries and uterus, as well as for disorders of the reproductive cycle.
Sepia - affects the sympathetic nervous system, and also changes the tone of blood vessels. The drug is prescribed for chronic inflammatory processes of the ovaries and uterus, which are accompanied by foul-smelling mucopurulent discharge.
Lachesis is made from the venom of the surucucu, a Brazilian snake. The biologically active substances of the poison are enzymes and peptides. The product helps to reduce and narrow the permeability of the walls of blood vessels, which reduces tissue swelling and cyanosis. The drug also stimulates the dilatation of the cervix. The substance is widely used in septic processes, including chronic ones and those prone to generalization. Prescribed for endometritis and inflammation of the ovaries.
ASD-2 is a biologically active antiseptic, the result of dry distillation of meat and bone meal. It affects the central nervous system, enhances the activity of tissue enzymes, stimulates the gastrointestinal tract, and helps restore metabolism. The product increases tissue immunity and has an anti-inflammatory effect.
Reviews:
Alevtina: A very unpleasant incident recently happened to my cat; she fell ill with mastopathy. And this happened because this time we very quickly distributed the kittens to friends. The remaining kitten did not have time to drink all the milk from the mother's breast, so stagnation formed. As a result of this stagnation, 3 mammary glands hardened, and on the second day they began to turn a little blue. Therefore, I decided to immediately go to the veterinary clinic. The doctor prescribed the drug mastometrin, and purchased it at the nearest pharmacy for 265 rubles (10 ml bottle). The clinic is located far away, so I had to give injections to my pet myself. On the 3rd day, the swelling of the mammary glands noticeably subsided, and on the 5th day she stopped treatment altogether, since the lumps completely disappeared. I recommend this product to all cat owners!
Lyudmila: A couple of months ago a lost cat wandered in. We took her in, she was pregnant and after 2 weeks she gave birth to 3 kittens, only one of them survived. Against this background, the cat developed mastitis, as the milk stagnated for a long time. I searched many forums on the Internet, and there I came across the drug Mastometrin. There were many positive reviews about it, despite the fact that it is a homeopathic drug. That same evening I ordered the drug, and it was delivered in the morning. I am very afraid of injections, so I had to ask my husband to give injections to the cat. After a week of treatment, mastitis was completely cured. No side effects were observed during treatment. I bought the drug for 300 rubles, everyone can buy it. Good product, I recommend it!
