Abstract

Studies made in 30 patients with periodontosis have shown that thymaline improves the general health status of patients, thereby promoting the normalization of cellular and, to a lesser degree, humoral immunity. At the same time the drug normalizes blood coagulation, the total and Hageman factor-dependent fibrinolysis. It is concluded that thymaline is a modulator of the immunogenesis and hemostasis.
