Is oxiracetam good for ADHD?

Oxiracetam is a cyclic derivative of R-aminobutyric acid. Pharmacological studies have shown that it has multiple protective and restorative effects on brain function. After entering the human body, Oxiracetam can selectively act on the cerebral cortex for binding, and it can selectively activate and protect brain tissue, promoting the recovery of damaged nerve cell functions, thereby improving and integrating brain functions such as memory, learning ability, and cognitive ability. Therefore, Oxiracetam is often used as a combination drug for treating various cerebrovascular diseases, such as cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage.

Oxiracetam is an analogue of Piracetam, with central excitatory effects. It can promote brain metabolism, significantly enhance and improve brain memory, and is effective for senile memory and mental decline. It can be used for the elderly with impaired brain function and memory decline, especially for senile dementia. It can also be used for the rehabilitation treatment of brain diseases such as neurosis, brain trauma and encephalitis.

Oxiracetam can promote the transport of acetylcholine in the cerebral cortex, increase the affinity of brain cells for choline uptake, enhance the activity of cerebral phosphatase A1, and at the same time inhibit the decomposition of cerebral phospholipids. Thus, it can effectively activate acylic acid activating enzymes, increase the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the brain, and increase energy storage in the brain. It effectively improves the insufficient energy metabolism caused by ischemia and hypoxia, and promotes the energy metabolism of brain cells.
