How It Works

This medicine is believed to work by providing a mixture of low-molecular-weight peptides and free amino acids that can cross the blood-brain barrier and support neuronal metabolism. These peptides are thought to mimic endogenous neurotrophic factors, which help protect nerve cells from damage, reduce oxidative stress, and limit inflammation in the brain. The active ingredient may also promote the repair of damaged cell membranes and improve the supply of energy to brain cells. In addition, it may help regulate the release of certain neurotransmitters and support the formation of new connections between neurons. However, the exact mechanism of action is not fully established from the available information.

Mechanism Steps

1
Delivery of peptides: After injection, the cerebroprotein hydrolysate delivers small peptides and amino acids into the bloodstream.
2
Crossing the blood-brain barrier: Some of these peptides are believed to cross the blood-brain barrier and reach brain tissue.
3
Neuroprotection: Once in the brain, they may help protect neurons from damage caused by lack of oxygen, toxins, or inflammation.
4
Support for repair: The peptides may support the repair of damaged nerve cell membranes and improve energy production within brain cells.
5
Modulation of neurotransmitters: They may also help regulate the release of neurotransmitters, which can improve communication between nerve cells.
