The creation of BIONAMED started with a simple discussion. A discussion in which three friends talked about the increasingly common antibiotic resistance.
And because they've all been in the medical or botanical fields for many years, looking for solutions in nature. And successfully!
They decided to use its power in cases where antibiotic treatment is not strictly necessary.
As the founder of BIONAMED, urologist Igor Motíl, MD, says:
"The overuse of antibiotics is indeed an extremely serious problem. We have tried to find a solution that can improve this unfavourable situation. The plant kingdom offers an almost infinite number of substances that have antibacterial effects and can therefore be used in certain cases instead of synthetic antibiotics."
And the co-founder of the company, PharmDr. Stanislav Chudík, adds: "Just select suitable plant extracts or choose their combinations with laboratory-verified effects against bacteria and we have a real possibility to effectively reduce antibiotic resistance by using them and at the same time keep classical antibiotics to treat only very serious infections."
Together, the two founders emphasize, "The goal of BIONAMED is not and never will be to produce large quantities of products of all kinds! At BIONAMED, we will always focus on one or two specific goals with potentially significant health and social benefits. In this context, we are currently dealing with the issue of antibiotic resistance and the development of purely natural (plant-based) antibiotics. Other equally important projects are planned for the near future."
