Neuroton indications

An indication is a term used for the list of condition or symptom or illness for which the medicine is prescribed or used by the patient. For example, acetaminophen or paracetamol is used for fever by the patient, or the doctor prescribes it for a headache or body pains. Now fever, headache and body pains are the indications of paracetamol. A patient should be aware of the indications of medications used for common conditions because they can be taken over the counter in the pharmacy meaning without prescription by the Physician.

Cerebrovascular Diseases (eg, From Ischemia Due to Stroke): Neuroton accelerates the recovery of consciousness and overcoming motor deficit. The clinical testing of Neuroton has challenged the historical concept that one can do nothing for a stroke patient after a certain period of time has transpired after the onset of symptoms. The practicality of a drug that can be administered up to 24 hrs after stroke is a key factor in evaluating the potential of Neuroton.

The potential of Neuroton as stroke therapy is underscored by other key attributes: Its oral dosage for a 24-hr window of therapeutic opportunity following stroke and an apparent absence of significant side effects. Preliminary evidence suggests that in a small subgroup of patients, Neuroton may reduce the size of the impact caused by stroke.

Treatment of Neuroton within the first 24 hrs after onset in patients with moderate to severe stroke increase the probability of complete recovery in 3 months.

Head Trauma of Varying Severity: In a clinical trial, Neuroton accelerated the recovery from posttraumatic coma and the recuperation of walking ability, achieved a better final functional result and reduced hospital stay.

Cognitive Disorders of Diverse Etiology [eg, Senile Cognitive Impairment which is Secondary to Degenerative Diseases (eg, Alzheimer's Disease) and to Chronic Cerebral Vascular Disease]: Neuroton improves scores on cognitive evaluation scales and slowed the progression of Alzheimer's disease.

Parkinson's Disease: Neuroton has also been shown to be effective as co-therapy for Parkinson's disease. Beneficial neuroendocrine, neuroimmunomodulatory and neurophysiological effects have been described. Considerable experimental evidence of effects of Neuroton on CNS dopaminergic system has accumulated. After treatment with Neuroton, regeneration of cells in rats with substantia nigra lesions has been demonstrated. Neuroton increases striatal dopamine and tyrosine hydroxylase synthesis.
