    AbstractOften ill people are, first of all, patients with recurrent infectious and inflammatory diseases of the upper respiratory tract (URT). They put a significant financial burden on the healthcare system. The leading etiological factors of recurrent inflammatory diseases of URT, in addition to pathogenic bacterial microflora, are viral agents (viruses of the viral respiratory infections group, herpes viruses). The chronic infection and recurrence of local inflammation is due to the persistence of resident bacterial and viral flora (including herpes viruses), and as a result, the insufficiency of the mucosal immune response. In order to optimize therapeutic and preventive measures for frequently ill adults and children, the most promising is the use of immunotherapy and immunoprophylaxis. The immunomodulator inosine pranobex, due to its unique combined (immunotropic and antiviral) properties, demonstrates effectiveness in the complex treatment of viral respiratory infections, including in combination with herpes viruses, and is successfully used to prevent frequent relapses of infectious and inflammatory diseases of the URT. The domestic analogue of inosine pranobex Normomed® [JSC "Valenta Pharm"», ЛП-№(002470)-(РГ-RU), ЛП-№(005542)-(РГ-RU)], has a good safety and bioequivalence profile, and occupies a worthy field in the Russian pharmaceutical market among drugs recommended for the treatment of viral infections in adults and children.
