Immunal is a high-potency herbal supplement engineered to strengthen the body's natural defense mechanisms. It works through a phytochemical immune-stimulation mechanism: primarily utilizing standardized extracts of Echinacea purpurea, it increases the number and activity of white blood cells (specifically phagocytes and lymphocytes). By stimulating these "defender cells," Immunal enhances the body’s ability to identify and destroy invading pathogens, effectively shortening the duration of viral infections and reducing the severity of symptoms associated with the common cold and upper respiratory tract inflammation.

In Nigeria, Immunal Tablets (available in packs of 30) are a premier clinical choice for managing Recurrent Respiratory Infections, general physical weakness, and immune recovery after malaria or the flu. They are available through wellness clinics and registered pharmacies like Sanlive Pharmacy, ensuring you receive authentic, laboratory-verified Lek/Sandoz stock stored in cool, dry conditions (below 25°C). This is critical because the active polysaccharides and alkylamides in Echinacea are "thermolabile" (heat-sensitive); exposure to the intense Nigerian heat or high humidity can cause the tablets to "mottle" or the botanical compounds to oxidize, significantly reducing the supplement's ability to "prime" your immune system or protect your family during the dusty Harmattan season.
Important: This is a biological stimulation therapy. The "Early-Start" Rule: You should start taking Immunal at the very first sign of a "scratchy throat" or a "runny nose"; the therapy is most effective when the immune system is first being challenged. The "10-Day" Warning: You must strictly avoid continuous use for more than 8 to 10 consecutive days; over-stimulating the immune system for long periods can lead to "immune fatigue" or reduced effectiveness. The "Auto-Immune" Note: You must never take Immunal if you have systemic diseases like Tuberculosis, Leukemia, or HIV/AIDS without specialist supervision, as stimulating the immune system in these cases can interfere with your core treatment.
Preventing Common Cold: Strengthening the respiratory defenses to stop viruses from taking hold.
Shortening Infection Duration: Helping the body clear "flu-like" symptoms faster than bed rest alone.
Managing Recurrent Infections: Breaking the cycle of frequent coughs and sore throats in children and adults.
Providing Botanical Immune-Stimulation: Using natural Echinacea to boost white blood cell activity.
Offering Adjuvant Therapy: Supporting the body during antibiotic treatment for respiratory infections.
Supporting Seasonal Protection: Providing a "shield" during peak viral seasons or environmental shifts.
Enhancing Convalescence Recovery: Assisting the body in rebuilding its strength after a prolonged illness.
This medication is intended for:
Adults and children (usually over 6 or 12 years, depending on the specific pack) seeking natural immune support.
Individuals under the active supervision of a General Physician or Pharmacist.
Not recommended for: Children under 1 year of age or pregnant/breastfeeding mothers (unless directed by a doctor). It is strictly contraindicated for individuals with Progressive Systemic Disorders (like Multiple Sclerosis) or known allergies to plants in the "Asteraceae" (Daisy) family. Use with caution in patients with a history of severe allergies or asthma. Consult our pharmacist if you are taking Immunosuppressant Drugs (like Prednisolone), as Immunal will work against these medications. Consult your doctor if your fever lasts more than 3 days or you develop difficulty breathing.
Administered via the Oral Route, typically one tablet three to four times daily for adults.
The "Administration" Tip: Swallow the tablet whole with a generous glass of water; it can be taken with or without food.
The "Timing" Rule: Space your doses evenly throughout the day (e.g., Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner) to keep your immune cells consistently "alert."
Consistency is Vital: For a short-term "boost," you must take the full 7-to-10-day course; missing doses allows the virus a chance to replicate more effectively.
The "Storage" Tip: Keep the blister pack in its original box in a cool, dark drawer; do not leave it in a hot car or a humid bathroom in the Nigerian climate.
Generally No Side Effects: When used for short-term immune support as directed.
Mild digestive upset or a temporary "tingling" sensation on the tongue.
Hypersensitivity Reactions: A small itchy rash or "hives" (common in people allergic to daisies).
Rare but serious: Critical Bronchospasm—requires immediate medical intervention if sudden wheezing or difficulty breathing occurs.
Rare: Mild dizziness or a temporary increase in body temperature.
Seek medical advice immediately if you experience swelling of the face, a sudden spreading skin rash, or persistent vomiting.

Is it an "Antibiotic"?
No. Immunal does not kill bacteria directly. It helps your own body kill viruses and bacteria by making your immune system stronger and faster at responding to infection.
Can I take it "Every Day" to stay healthy?
No. Immunal is designed for "short bursts" of 8 to 10 days when you are feeling sick or at risk. Taking it every single day for months makes the medicine less effective because your immune system gets "tired" of being stimulated.
Will it help with "Malaria"?
Immunal will not cure malaria. However, many doctors recommend it after you have finished your malaria medicine to help your body recover its strength and prevent you from getting sick again immediately.
