Pharmacological action

The spectrum of action of Pantogam® is associated with the presence in its structuregamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). The mechanism of action is due to the direct effect of the drug on the GABAA-receptor-channel complex.

Has a nootropic and anticonvulsant effect. Increases brain resistance to hypoxia and toxic substances, stimulates anabolic processes in neurons, combines moderate sedative effect with a mild stimulating effect, reduces motor excitability, activates mental and physical performance.

Improves the metabolism of GABA in chronic alcohol intoxication and after discontinuation of ethanol.

Able to inhibit acetylation reactions involved in the inactivation of procaine (novocaine) and sulfonamides, due to which the prolongation of the action of the latter is achieved. Causes inhibition of pathologically increased cystic reflex and detrusor tone.

Pharmacokinetics

Pantogam® is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, passes through the BBB, and the highest concentrations are created in the liver, kidneys, stomach wall and skin. It is not metabolized and excreted unchanged within 48 hours: 67.5% of the dose taken is excreted in the urine, 28.5% - with feces.
