BAYAMO, Granma -The natural product Abexol in suspension - developed jointly by the National Center for Scientific Research (CNIC) in Havana and the Pharmaceutical Laboratory of Oral Liquids Company (Medilip), located in this eastern province - is available for the first time, in this format, for its commercialization in pharmacies and other points of sale.
Registered as an antioxidant nutritional supplement with benefits on the health of the digestive system, the new product -which has Abexol in tablets as a predecessor- contains a mixture of fatty alcohols extracted and purified from beeswax, which favors all the processes of pharmacological action in a faster way than pills.
This innovative supplement, which is administered orally, also allows greater bioavailability, easier swallowing, dosage flexibility, immediacy and potency of the antioxidant action.
Efrén Rodríguez Lora, director of Medilip, informed the press that, in this first stage of commercialization, the product will only be available in the network of pharmacies in the province of Granma and in the CNIC store in the country's capital.
He explained that as the production of active ingredients to obtain this nutritional supplement increases, its sale will be extended to the rest of the territories.
The executive also clarified that although Abexol in suspension will be marketed freely, it is recommended to consult medical personnel beforehand, and not to administer it during pregnancy, breastfeeding or in children, since its effects on those groups have not yet been studied.
