Unique preparation MYRAMISTIN was developed within the Space Biotechnology Programme. One of the Programme's objectives was to find and develop a new preparation which would effectively fight most pathogenic microorganisms and act so that they would not develop drug resistance. Obviously, the preparation should be most safe for human use both on earth and in space. As a result of multiple experiments, they managed to develop a preparation which when fighting microorganisms produces no adverse or by-effects on the human organism; moreover, it possesses a number of useful qualities: enhances local immunity, heals inflammatory processes, speeds up wound repair, etc. Through numerous clinical and scientific researches it has been proved that MYRAMISTIN is highly active to bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa, including hospital multiresistant strains and microbial associations. This personal hygiene aid is used to sustain healthy hygiene of skin and mucous coats, including those of private parts, as well as for hygienic application after visiting public swimming pools, baths and bathing sites.*
