Description
Citicoline and Piracetam Tablets are a combination medication primarily used to enhance cognitive function and support neurological health. Both agents are neuroprotective and nootropic compounds often prescribed for cognitive impairments, memory disorders, and certain neurological conditions.
Mechanism of Action:
Citicoline:
- Acts as a precursor of phosphatidylcholine, vital for maintaining the integrity and repair of neuronal cell membranes.
- Enhances synthesis of acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter in memory and learning.
- Exhibits neuroprotective properties by reducing free radical damage and promoting brain cell repair.
Piracetam:
- Modulates neurotransmitter activity and improves neuronal function by increasing membrane fluidity.
- Enhances cerebral blood flow and oxygen consumption.
- Facilitates synaptic plasticity and improves communication between neurons.
- Improves cognitive functions such as memory, learning, attention, and alertness.
Uses:
- Cognitive decline related to aging or dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease.
- Post-stroke recovery and management of neurological deficits.
- Traumatic brain injury and chronic neurological disorders causing memory impairment.
- Vertigo, dizziness, and certain forms of encephalopathy.
- Supportive therapy in cerebrovascular diseases and neurodegenerative disorders.
