Pharmacological classification: A.34 other (Western herbal). Pharmacological action: Echinaforce has a modulating effect on the immune response. The alkylamides are the active components in Echinaforce. They bind specifically to the CB2receptor, an endo-cannabinoid receptor. Through this linkage, activation of the gene for tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) takes place. The reaction to pathogens with Echinaforce results in a modulated release of TNF-alpha and acts to produce long-lasting response of the immune system.
