Prolastina – Alpha 1 -proteinase inhibitor uses, dose and side effects
Alpha 1 -proteinase inhibitor is a substance that is formed in the body to inhibit the effect of substances called elastases and which damage the lungs. In the case of hereditary deficiency of alpha 1 -proteinase inhibitors, there is an imbalance between alpha 1 -proteinase inhibitors and elastase. This can lead to gradual degradation of lung tissue and development of pulmonary emphysema . Pulmonary emphysema is an abnormal enlargement of the lungs, with degradation of the lung tissue. Prolastina is used to restore the balance between alpha 1 -proteinase inhibitors and elastase in the lungs, which prevents further deterioration of the pulmonary emphysema .
