INSTRUCTION FOR THE SPECIALIST.
Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2011.
PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
A drug that improves the metabolism and energy supply of tissues, a synthetic analogue of gamma-butyrobetaine. It suppresses gamma-butyrobetaine hydroxynase.Reduces the synthesis of carnitine and the transport of long chain fatty acids through cell membranes, prevents the accumulation of activated forms of unoxidized fatty acids - the derivatives of acylcarnitine and acylcoenzyme A in cells. Under conditions of ischemia, it restores the equilibrium of the processes of oxygen delivery and its consumption in cells, prevents the violation of ATP transport. Simultaneously, it activates glycolysis, which proceeds without additional consumption of oxygen. As a result of a decrease in the concentration of carnitine, gamma-butyrobetaine, which has vasodilating properties, is synthesized intensively.
The mechanism of action determines the variety of pharmacological effects of the drug: increasing efficiency, reducing the symptoms of mental and physical overstrain, the activation of tissue and humoral immunity, cardioprotective action.
In the case of acute ischemic damage, the myocardium slows the formation of the necrotic zone, shortens the rehabilitation period.
With heart failure increases myocardial contractility, increases exercise tolerance, reduces the incidence of angina attacks.
In acute and chronic ischemic disorders of cerebral circulation improves blood circulation in the ischemic focus, promotes redistribution of blood in favor of the ischemic site.
Effective in the case of vascular and dystrophic pathology of the fundus.
Characteristic is also a tonic effect on the central nervous system, the elimination of functional disorders of somatic and autonomic nervous systems in patients with chronic alcoholism with withdrawal syndrome.

Chronic alcoholism: in / in - 500 mg (5 ml) 2 times / day. The course of treatment is 7-10 days.
Vascular pathology of the fundus and dystrophy of the retina: retrobulbarno and subconjunctivally injected 50 mg (0.5 ml solution for injection) for 10 days.
SIDE EFFECT
