Article Synopsis
  • Inosine pranobex (Groprinosin) shows potential as an immune booster in children with cellular immunodeficiency, particularly against recurring viral infections.
  • A study involving 30 children aged 3-15 years administered 50 mg/kg body weight/day of inosine pranobex for 10 days over three months demonstrated significant increases in important immune cells (CD3T and CD4T lymphocytes).
  • The improvements in immune cell function and clinical outcomes were observed alongside a control group that received garlic treatment, suggesting that inosine pranobex may effectively enhance immune responses.
