Cerepro refers to nootropic drugs, centrally acting cholinomimetics. The active ingredient is choline alfoscerate. Cerepro contains 40.5% choline in a metabolically protected form (metabolic protection ensures the release of choline in the brain). In the body, under the action of enzyme systems, the drug is broken down into glycerophosphate and choline. Choline takes part in the biosynthesis of acetylcholine (one of the most important mediators of nervous excitement). Glycerophosphate is a precursor of neuronal membrane phospholipids (phosphatidylcholine).
Cerepro provides sufficient synthesis of phosphatidylcholine and acetylcholine in neuronal membranes, improves blood flow and enhances metabolic processes in the central nervous system. Also, the drug activates the reticular formation, improves the linear velocity of blood flow in the area of traumatic brain injury, normalizes the spatio-temporal characteristics of bioelectrical spontaneous brain activity, positively affects behavioral and cognitive responses in patients with vascular pathology of the brain.
When using Cerepro, brain functions are improved by affecting the pathogenetic links of the involutionary psychoorganic syndrome, the phospholipid composition of neuronal membranes changes, and cholinergic activity decreases. The drug dose-dependently increases the release of acetylcholine, taking part in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, improves the plasticity of neuronal membranes, synaptic transmission, and receptor function.
Due to the high neurophysiological activity of this drug, reviews of Cerepro from neurologists are positive. The experience of using Cerepro testifies to its effectiveness in organic pathology of the central nervous system.
The absorption of the drug after oral administration is 88%. Cerepro crosses the blood-brain barrier, the concentration of the drug in the brain is about 45% of the plasma concentration. The drug is excreted by the lungs (85%), as well as in urine and feces (15%).
