Citicoline sodium is a brain metabolic activator, which can improve brain function and enhance the function of the brainstem ascending activation system. The main indications are acute brain injury, consciousness disorder after brain surgery, consciousness disorder in the acute phase of cerebral infarction, ischemic cerebrovascular disease, vascular dementia, tinnitus, and nerve deafness.
Can citicoline sodium tablets be used for cerebral blood supply deficiency?
Citicoline sodium tablets can be used for patients with insufficient cerebral blood supply, but this drug is not for the treatment of cerebral blood supply. Patients with insufficient cerebral blood supply should not take drugs blindly but should be treated according to the causes of insufficient cerebral blood supply. Patients should have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular examinations, such as ECG, cerebral blood flow, brain CT and so on.
If the cerebral blood supply is insufficient due to the slow metabolism of brain cells, it is better to take citicoline sodium tablets or Oxiracetam capsules. If the cerebral blood supply is insufficient due to the abnormality of the nervous system, it is generally better to take mecobalamin and vitamin B1. In addition, cerebral vascular atrophy can also lead to the insufficient blood supply to the brain, in which case flunarizine hydrochloride needs to be taken.
If the blood supply to the brain is insufficient, you can choose to take drugs that nourish the nerves and Chinese patent medicines that promote blood circulation. At the same time, you should actively treat the primary disease.
The symptoms of patients with insufficient cerebral blood supply are mainly concentrated in memory loss, unresponsiveness, dizziness, dizziness, and yawning. Patients can choose to take drugs that nourish nerves orally to alleviate their symptoms, such as Mecobalamin; You can also take citicoline sodium tablets, which can improve brain metabolism; You can also take some Chinese patent medicines that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, such as Yindanxin Naotong capsule, which can achieve good results.
In addition, we should also actively treat diseases that can cause the insufficient blood supply to the brain, such as heart failure, which leads to insufficient blood supply to the brain, and we need to use drugs to treat heart failure.
In addition, in daily life, we should also give up smoking, drink and lose weight, eat more foods rich in protein, mainly meat, eggs, and milk, and control blood pressure, blood fat, and blood sugar. Only in this way can we effectively improve the lack of blood supply to the brain.
Efficacy and action of citicoline sodium tablets
citicoline sodium's efficacy and role are mainly used for acute brain injury and consciousness disorder after brain surgery, stroke hemiplegia, ischemic and hypoxic brain diseases, and vascular dementia. It can also be applied to the sequelae of stroke, the functional recovery of hemiplegia after stroke, and the improvement of cerebral metabolism and cerebral circulation. It can also be applied to coma consciousness, obstacles, cognitive dysfunction caused by acute poisoning and infection, large-area cerebral infarction, etc.
The drug action of citicoline sodium is mainly to promote cerebral material metabolism, improve cerebral circulation, enhance the function of the brainstem ascending reticular activation system, enhance the function of the vertebral body system, improve motor paralysis, and play a certain role in the recovery of brain function and promote repair by reducing cerebrovascular resistance and increasing cerebral blood flow.
Side effects of citicoline sodium tablets
Citicoline sodium tablets can mainly be used for diseases related to the cerebrovascular system. This drug is still relatively safe and has relatively few side effects. Occasionally, gastrointestinal reactions may occur, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite. However, generally, gastrointestinal reactions are relatively mild and last for a relatively short time.
With the prolongation of the medication time, the gastrointestinal reaction will also gradually reduce, so the side effects of citicoline sodium tablets are relatively small. This medicine is mainly used to treat the neurological sequelae caused by brain injury or cerebrovascular accident. It needs to be taken with warm boiled water. If there are other side effects during the course of medication, it is recommended to inform the doctor or pharmacist at any time.
