Description
Summary:The article discusses  the  possibility of using the  complex drug Phezam, containing 400  mg of Piracetam and 25  mg of Cinnarizine in neurological practice. The advantage of a combination of nootropic and vasoactive substances is due to a balanced and diversified influence on the different links of pathogenesis  diseases. Piracetam targets the turnover of cell membranes, neurotransmission, has a neuroprotective effect, influences the neuroplasticity, the energy exchange in the cage and the vascular mechanisms (blood cells, cardiovascular wall and coagulation). The second component of the drug Cinnarizine has vasodilatating properties, suppresses the activity of the labyrinth and improves flow blood properties. When discussing the drug-induced parkinsonism, the opposite  effects  of the drug components on the dopaminergic system are described. The Phezam has shown its efficacy in the preventive treatment of migraines (reducing of frequency and intensity of seizures). In patients with chronic brain ischemia Phezam improved a neurological status, cognitive functions, blood flow indicators, and quality of life. The positive effects of Phezam during the recovery period of ischaemic stroke with speech and moderate cognitive disorders are reported. The characteristics of the metering regime are the possibility to use low-and high-dosage therapy. The drug showed good tolerability and economic advantages over the use of active substances separately.
