Recarcin (Pleo Rec) is a preparation from the Bacillus firmus SA.C. 501 (DSM 4816), a particular strain from the group of non-pathogenic bacilli. Experience has shown that Recarcin raises the defensive capacity of a normal bacterial flora. Its content of polysaccharides, ferments, and specific protein combinations exerts a special effect of Recarcin that is to be understood in the sense of an immune- and irritative therapy. Thereby, the progressing disease process is blocked and the specific defense capacity is activated. In immunological test models, a significant rise in phagocytic activity has been established. A strong rise in the T-lymphocyte proliferation also confirms Recarcin as a potent immune modulator. General Indications: see Materia Medica for specific indications. Homeopathic remedy: To be used according to standard homeopathic indications.
