Reviews
Oksana
Tiberal, of course, is very effective, the doctor prescribed me for gynecological surgery. I have a weakened immune system, so the operation was solved for a very long time. She took it a month before the operation and for a long time after that, thanks to this drug, no complications and infections appeared, and even some infectious diseases that I had had for a long time had receded. Here are just side effects right through the roof - the head could not lift at all. But if anyone has such a need to use Tiberal, then you can withstand any of its manifestations only to help.

My daughter once had a stomach ache often. They took various drugs that improve digestion, but there was almost no effect. After the pediatrician sent for tests, the cause of all ailments became immediately clear - this is giardiasis. We were prescribed treatment, the course was completely gone, but the pain after the application of the remedy did not disappear.
We turned to another doctor who prescribed Tiberal. We took him only three days, the daughter bore him well, there were no complaints. To my surprise and endless joy, repeated tests showed that the disease was defeated, Tiberal coped with the parasites. That's what it means, the right treatment, three days and the disease was gone.
