Ethoxidol®
It is an original medicine for the treatment of cerebrovascular disorders with a novel antioxidant mechanism
Dosage form
tablets and solution for injection
Active substance
Ethylmethylhydroxypyridine malate
Dosage
100 mg
Ethoxidol® – promotes cell survival, reduces the effects of ischemia (lack of blood supply) and helps restore neurological and mental activity.
Indications for use:
- coronary heart disease (as part of complex therapy);
- complex therapy of ischemic stroke;
- dyscirculatory encephalopathy;
- mild and moderate cognitive disorders.
Key advantages:
- restores its own antioxidant system of oragnism1-4;
- gives 2.5 times more energy (ATP*) to cells with ischemia1-2, 6-11;
- penetrates the blood-brain barrier better3-5;
- has an antihypoxic effect3,4,6,14;
- improves rheological properties of blood3,4,6,14;
- has a hypolipidemic effect3,4,6,14;
- does not cause cell death in conditions of ischemia and hypoxia7,11;
- allows to compensate for malate deficiency in ischemia7,12,13.
