Pharmacological properties

Pharmacokinetics

Suction and distribution

After oral administration, absorption is 88%. Easily penetrates the blood-brain barrier, accumulates mainly in the brain (the concentration reaches 45% of the level in the blood plasma), lungs and liver.

Metabolism and excretion

85% is excreted by the lungs in the form of carbon dioxide, the rest (15%) - by the kidneys and through the intestines.

Pharmacodynamics

Gliatilin® is a centrally acting cholinomimetic. The composition of the drug includes 40.5% of metabolically protected choline. Metabolic protection ensures the release of choline in the brain. The mechanism of action is based on the fact that when choline enters the body, alfoscerate is cleaved under the action of enzymes into choline and glycerophosphate: choline is involved in the biosynthesis of acetylcholine, one of the main mediators of nervous excitation; Glycerophosphate is a precursor of phospholipids (phosphatidylcholine) of neuronal membranes. Thus, Gliatilin® improves the transmission of nerve impulses in cholinergic neurons; promotes the restoration of damaged neuronal membranes and receptor function, prevents the development of apoptosis (prevents the death of neurons). Research results have shown that Gliatilin® has a significant positive effect on memory and intelligence, as well as on indicators of the emotional state and behavior, the deterioration of which was caused by hypoxia or the development of degenerative or vascular pathology of the brain. Gliatilin® improves cerebral blood flow, enhances metabolic processes in the brain, activates the structures of the reticular formation of the brain and restores consciousness in traumatic brain damage.
