The active ingredients contained in the drug are the body’s own bacteria, which also occur in the intestine. Depending on the product, they are Enterococcus faecalis (Symbioflor 1) or Escherichia coli (Symbioflor 2). The administration of killed or live bacteria serves to stimulate the immune system and is intended to stimulate the various immune reactions in the body.
The immune cells are located, among other places, on the intestinal wall. There they come into contact with the intestinal bacteria and can be activated. If foreign bodies and pathogens now enter the body, the immune system can react more quickly to them and fight them.
