Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Pineamin is an anti-climacteric organopreparation. Its active substance is a complex of low molecular weight water-soluble polypeptide fractions obtained from the pineal gland of cattle. The action of the drug is aimed at optimizing the epiphyseal-hypothalamic relationship, normalizing the function of the anterior pituitary gland and the balance of gonadotropic hormones.
The results of experimental studies of the drug on female rats with an age-related decrease in fertility indicate an increase in their reproductive capacity and a tendency to an increase in libido. In addition, a slight sedative effect was noted on animals in terms of their psycho-emotional state. After daily intramuscular administration of the drug for 30 and 90 days in experimental animals, no negative changes in the functions of the cardiovascular, hematopoietic, nervous, urinary and respiratory systems, metabolism or deterioration of the general condition of the body were observed.
In postmenopausal women, the use of the drug demonstrates a positive effect on the neurovegetative manifestations of climacteric syndrome, significantly reducing the severity of such climacteric disorders according to the menopausal Kupperman index as hot flashes, headaches, hyperhidrosis, increased excitability, palpitations at rest, and sleep disturbances.
