INSTRUCTION FOR THE SPECIALIST.
Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2015.
PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
Cardiotonic preparation of non-glycosidic structure. Ubidekarenone is a natural substance, which is a vitamin-like coenzyme. Ubidekarenone (coenzyme Q10, ubiquinone) is an endogenous substrate, participates in the transfer of electrons in the transport chain of oxidation-reduction processes, during energy metabolism, in the reaction of oxidative phosphorylation in the respiratory chain of mitochondria of cells. Participates in the processes of cellular respiration, increasing the synthesis of ATP. Has a clinically significant antioxidant effect. Ubidekarenon protects the lipids of cell membranes from peroxidation, reduces the area of ​​myocardial damage under conditions of ischemia and reperfusion. Ubidekarenon prevents the prolongation of the QT-interval, improves the tolerance of exercise.
Due to endogenous synthesis 100% satisfaction of the body's need for coenzyme Q10 occurs only up to the age of 20 years. The content of coenzyme Q10 decreases in elderly patients, as well as in various diseases, both in adults and in children.
