Nootropil is a nootropic medication, a cyclic derivative of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). It acts directly on the central nervous system, enhancing cognitive functions such as learning, memory, attention, and overall mental efficiency. Nootropil affects the central nervous system in several ways: by altering neurotransmission speed in the brain, boosting metabolic processes in nerve cells, and enhancing microcirculation through its impact on blood rheological properties.
Nootropil also inhibits platelet aggregation, restores red blood cell membrane elasticity, and reduces erythrocyte adhesion.
Nootropil is utilized for: symptomatic treatment of psychoorganic syndrome, especially in older adults facing memory issues, dizziness, decreased concentration and overall activity, mood fluctuations, behavioral changes, gait problems, and those with Alzheimer's disease and senile dementia of the Alzheimer's type. It addresses the aftermath of ischemic strokes, including speech difficulties and emotional disturbances. It is also used in the treatment of alcoholism for managing psychoorganic and withdrawal syndromes, comatose states (and during recovery), including post-injury and brain intoxication scenarios, as well as for treating vascular vertigo and assisting children with psychoorganic syndrome. Additionally, it is used for cortical myoclonia as either monotherapy or combined therapy, and in the management of sickle-cell anemia as part of complex treatment.
