The presence of pimples and blackheads on the skin is accompanied by physical and psycho-emotional discomfort. Suffering and low self-esteem occur in people of all ages. Pharmacy chains sell many external products to combat acne. Many have unpleasant side effects and a number of contraindications. Treatment takes a long time, often without success. Lactofiltrum occupies a special place in the line of drugs indicated for use in the fight against acne and acne.
What is the drug
This is a natural, safe, highly effective product that can significantly improve the condition of your skin in a couple of weeks. It affects internal organs, improving their functioning. Malfunctions in the immune system, gastrointestinal organs, liver, the presence of waste and toxins lead to a deterioration in a person’s general condition, the appearance of inflammation and acne on the skin.
Important! Lactofiltrum is a revolutionary way to influence the cause of skin rashes. The cause has been eliminated - no acne.
Lactofiltrum is a dietary supplement and is not a medicine. Sold in pharmacies without a prescription. Doctors recommend it to cleanse the body and strengthen the immune system. The drug is produced in two subtypes, called lactofiltrum-eco and lactofiltrum. Their composition is identical. They differ in form and dosage.
Lactofiltrum-eco is produced in the form of tablets of 30 pieces per package, lozenges of 10 pieces or powders of 10 packets per package. These products have fruit and berry flavors.
Lactofiltrum is sold only in the form of traditional tablets in packages of 10, 20, 30, 60 pieces. The tablets are small in size and have an elongated cylindrical shape, with a score and a chamfer. Their color is brown with gray dots.
- lignin;
- lactulose.
The first component is a naturally occurring enterosorbent obtained by hydrolysis of wood. The substance is not absorbed into the blood and tissues. It attracts, accumulates toxins, harmful particles and removes them from the body.
The second component is a disaccharide, an artificial prebiotic. Its molecules consist of fructose and galactose. Penetrating into the sections of the large intestine, lactulose initiates the proliferation of medicinal bacteria and is part of various acids.
In addition to the main active ingredients, the drug contains magnesium stearate and croscarmellose sodium as auxiliary elements.
Action
Lactofiltrum refers to enterosorbents, i.e. medications capable of absorbing toxins and breakdown products from the body. In other words, the drug cleanses the intestines well of unnecessary and harmful substances, which helps restore the natural bacterial balance in it.
In addition to the positive effect on the functioning of the digestive organs, Lactofiltrum indirectly strengthens the body’s protective functions by binding foreign microbes and their natural removal from the body.
Indications for use
Pimples, acne, and inflammation on the skin often signal the presence of pathological changes in the body, malfunctions of the gastrointestinal system and liver. Lactofiltrum is prescribed as part of complex therapy for the treatment of:
- hepatitis of various origins and severity;
- dysbacteriosis caused by taking antibiotics or previous intestinal infections;
- irritable bowel syndrome;
- allergies;
- skin diseases accompanied by the appearance of inflammation, pimples, blackheads on the skin;
- alopecia associated with weakness of hair follicles.
The drug is indicated for use by people of all ages from birth.
Important! When acne occurs due to hormonal diseases, the sorbent is ineffective. It will not help if you neglect the rules of personal hygiene.
Many dermatologists claim that a healthy natural automicroflora protects against harmful bacteria, toxins and allergens. Its death leads to intensive growth of staphylococcus, streptococcus, and many microbes.
They initiate inflammatory processes in the body, including on the skin. The health of the skin directly depends on the proper functioning of the intestines. Healthy intestinal microflora ensures the normal functioning of the immune system, preventing infections from entering the body.
The relationship between the intestines and skin condition is undeniable. Lactofiltrum just helps to normalize the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, which leads to the disappearance of inflammation, pimples, and blackheads on the skin surface.
Methods of taking the drug
Lactofiltrum is a bioactive food additive. They take it internally. The dosage is selected individually, depending on the weight and age of the patient.
Experts recommend giving children under 3 years of age half a tablet, and children aged 3 to 7 – one tablet per day. At this age, lactofiltrum is prescribed to combat diathesis and intestinal dysfunction.
For children from 8 to 12 years old, for adults the drug is indicated for use 1 or 2 tablets per day. For people whose weight exceeds 100 kg, the dose may be increased.
A one-time dose of lactofiltrum will not bring the desired results. To cleanse the digestive system of toxins, bacteria, and other harmful substances, it must be used in a course for 3 weeks.
Experts advise taking the drug an hour before meals, separately from any medications or other nutritional supplements. The method of use is important. Taking it simultaneously with food or immediately after a meal will not allow its active components to be absorbed into the intestines. If used incorrectly, the drug will have a weak effect or will not benefit the body at all.
Lactofiltrum has the effect of a mild laxative, so it is advisable to schedule its intake in the morning. This will ensure almost 100% absorption of the drug by the body.
Drinking the sorbent for longer than 3 weeks is not recommended. The break between courses must be at least a month. The intestines need time to adapt, establish work, and independently maintain healthy microflora.
To store the drug, it is advisable to choose a dark room with low humidity, in which the air temperature does not rise above 30 degrees. Otherwise, the sorbent will lose its beneficial properties and will be ineffective in treatment.
In combination with lactofiltrum, to enhance the effect, it is useful to regularly treat pimples and blackheads with special external products, correctly selected for your skin type. Along with the sorbent, it is possible to take medications and other active additives that affect the functioning of the digestive system.
It is important to understand that lactofiltrum is strictly prohibited from being applied to pimples, blackheads and inflamed areas of the skin. This will lead to exacerbation of inflammatory processes, the formation of abscesses and ulcers. It is worth understanding that the drug does not work as an antiseptic.
Self-treatment is not recommended; it is necessary to consult a specialist about the possibility of taking it and the optimal doses. When purchasing, it is important to check the release date of the drug, taking into account its shelf life of 3 years.
Lactofiltrum is produced by the Russian pharmaceutical company ABVA RUS. Its cost is influenced by the volume of trade margins, transport, and overhead costs of pharmacy chains, so retail prices may vary.
On average, 30 tablets of the drug cost approximately 250 rubles. A package of 60 tablets will cost 350 rubles, and 10 sachets of powder will cost 250 rubles. In online pharmacies prices may be slightly lower.

How to enhance the effect of Lactofiltrum in the treatment of acne
Taking Lactofiltrum and acne: how the remedy works against the formation of new blackheads, comedones and acne was discussed above. But acne is also an independent skin disease that requires competent cosmetic care.
Basic Rules:
- While taking Lactofiltrum, stop using scrubs, gommages, and peelings, since for acne, the products work in such a way that bacterial infection penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin and spreads over the entire affected surface.
- Carry out high-quality and complete makeup removal using cosmetic soap, micellar water and lotion. After using micellar water, you need to wipe your face with lotion. Washing with regular soap and water is extremely undesirable: soap dries out the skin, narrowing pores and causing excessive sebum secretion to restore the lipid film, which leads to clogged pores and the formation of cosmetic acne.
- Eliminate the use of fatty creams and give preference to moisturizers. Fat creams and facial oils are preferable to use in winter for dry skin. In other cases, use leads to clogging of pores and inflammatory processes.
- Apply zinc ointment to inflamed areas of the skin. Zinc is a mineral needed for rapid tissue regeneration. It also has a drying and anti-inflammatory effect. Cosmetologists recommend using zinc ointment locally for all types of acne. Apply to inflamed areas of skin 5 times a day for 1 month.
- Make an appointment with a cosmetologist for professional facial cleansing.
- Stick to a low-carb diet. It will also not be superfluous to include in your diet foods rich in vitamins A, E and B, zinc, and dietary fiber.
- Visit a solarium, as ultraviolet light dries out wounds.
- Under no circumstances should you squeeze out pimples yourself. This action provokes the entry of bacteria from the external environment into a fresh wound and the formation of a scar.
- Don't wash your face too often. This destroys the natural lipid layer of the skin and provokes increased work of the sebaceous glands.
Lactofiltrum is a medicine aimed at normalizing intestinal function. Since the appearance of the skin is a reflection of the health of the body, an additional effect of Lactofiltrum is getting rid of acne. But it is important to understand that if acne was not caused by pathogenic intestinal microflora, another treatment adequate to the cause is necessary.

FILTRUM-STI (tablets)
“It’s normal,” we decided, “we survived it after all.” ... and decided not to bother, but to start from the spot, and to the quarry ... We immediately started drinking water from the tap.
The result was not long in coming. The pants were washed for several days. For every sneeze, a puddle spread under the kids, as if from under a bushel.
We went swimming a couple of days later (when we came to our senses a little), but still, the main thing is not to laugh, the main thing is not to sneeze. We tried to call an ambulance to no avail, the owners were very indifferent to us, after some of our hysterics, they took pity and took the kids to the doctor, they prescribed useless enterogel, polysorb, something else that practically did not help, at the end of the race it became easier, they just started to enjoy the rest like the kids played in the pool and drank some green water.
Either they ate grapes (I ate them too), in short, who got sick first, who infected whom, and what happened then can no longer be made out.
NOW THERE STARTED CONSTANT LOPEY STOOL, dehydration, I was swollen, and the kids were losing weight. We had to go home, and the day before the train we were all sick, and during the trip home we realized that we were infecting each other and our neighbors by “airborne droplets”, the neighboring children also began to feel sick right on the next day of being next to us, and our symptoms passed on to them in full, they didn’t even have time to get off the shelf to bring the food rejected by the body at least to the toilet. We told no one that we were sick, drank all sorts of polysorbs, and pretended that everything was fine. I suffered the most and was also covered in a “rosiolus” type rash.” Upon arrival home, we went to the doctors, each to their own clinic, and honestly told us that we were sick and that we were infecting people. We were checked for shigella and salmonella, had a coprogram, were prescribed doxycycline and were released in peace. Moreover, the doctor’s phrase struck me at that moment, she told me: “You’re talking as if you brought typhus. What are you suggesting to me: block the clinic and call the sanitary and epidemiological station. “,” “Of course not,” I answered, and went along the directions in search of “happiness.” I had to decide what to do with the rash, loose stool is loose stool, and there is no living space on the skin. So I’m in the hospital, where the doctor, without hesitation, reading my previous diagnosis in the chart, gives me psoriasis, and asks whether I need hospitalization... I’m always interested when in films and books they say that the doctor should tell everything as if in a confession, So I repeat, I’m wondering if doctors read these books??? Nobody hears about intestinal problems... PSORIASIS... other diagnoses are apparently unknown to this doctor, (I have growing swelling in my legs, among other things) I go in the following directions, fortunately I had insurance, ultrasound of the Heart, liver, x-ray of something, endocrinologist, rheumatologist, vascular... I already have a fever, weakness is shaking all over, I feel like I’m dying... and then all the tests, everyone has their own diagnosis, no one hears me... meanwhile, my friend and her son infected both her husband and mother-in-law, and oh happiness... my mother-in-law turned out to have a friend in the laboratory, who confirmed that we had dysentery, but not shigella, I still don’t know what happened, but it was FILTRUM-STI that stopped the dehydration. We suffered a lot, the doctors, who did not find any of the two pathogens known to them in us, decided that we were healthy, and our problems were of a physiological nature... Since then, I have not trusted doctors at all. A friend went to the pharmacy and literally begged for advice on how to help her son. To which she was given the treasured YELLOW BOX with brown pills. The contents of the tablets have a very specific taste, but for me personally, now there is no candy that tastes better)))) From the first couple of tablets, I felt so much better that I realized - WE WILL SURVIVE!!!! Later, Filtrum was given an antibiotic in combination with a eubiotic, which saved us. The children really had enough of FILTRUM, but it was more difficult for me. But I also overcame the pain. Now Filtrum-Sti is always with you on vacation. I recommend to all. It also perfectly protects against many types of intoxication. From my own experience I will say that if you are going to a party, then chew a couple of tablets, and relax calmly, eat, drink, if you feel that you can overdo it, then you can chew another tablet or two, and it’s better to start the morning with Filtrum, on It will absorb all the negativity taken on the chest in the evening and deprive you of intoxication. You shouldn’t get too carried away, you don’t need to eat often either, this is a very strong drug, so save your vitamins and nutrients from cleaning it. The drug fully justifies its purpose as written on the packaging; if it were possible to give 10 points, I would give it.
