INSTRUCTION FOR THE SPECIALIST.
Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2013.
PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
The spectrum of action of Pantogam В® is related to the presence of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in its structure. The mechanism of action is due to the direct influence of Pantogam on GABA B- receptor-channel complex.
The drug has nootropic and anticonvulsant action.
The drug increases the resistance of the brain to hypoxia and the effects of toxic substances, stimulates anabolic processes in neurons, combines moderate sedation with a mild stimulating effect, reduces motor excitability, activates mental and physical performance. Improves the metabolism of GABA in chronic alcohol intoxication and after the abolition of ethanol. It is able to inhibit the acetylation reactions involved in the mechanisms of inactivation of procaine (novocaine) and sulfonamides, thereby prolonging the action of the latter.
It causes inhibition of the pathologically increased vesicle reflex and detrusor tone.
