1. What does the 150mg revive drug do? Uses of the revive potion
The revive drug has the main active ingredient L-ornithine-L-aspartate (L-O-L-A), which is widely used for liver tonic purposes.
L-ornithine-L-aspartate is a double salt complex, different from the usual L-ornithine only drug, when entering the body, this compound dissociates into two amino acids, L-ornithine and L-aspartate. These two amino acids are raw materials involved in the urea cycle and glutamine synthesis, L-ornithine acts as an activator of the enzymes ornithie carbamyl transferase and carbamyl phosphate synthetase. L-ornithine acts as a substrate for the urea synthesis cycle, thereby removing ammonia from the blood. L-aspartate enters the urea cycle after the formation of citrulline and provides the second amino acid required for the urea synthesis in the liver. L-aspartate stimulates the enzyme glutamine synthesis in the liver and reduces ammonia levels. In addition, L-ornithine and L-aspartate also indirectly participate in ATP energy generation by activating the Krebs cycle to provide energy for urea synthesis and stimulate the operation of other functions of the liver. , especially the function of fat metabolism and liver parenchyma regeneration. This is an important function in the treatment of fatty liver and the treatment of hepatitis.
