Pharmacological action

Cavinton – a drug that improves cerebral circulation, cerebral metabolism and rheological properties of blood.

Has a cerebroprotective effect. Reduces the severity of damaging cytotoxic reactions, caused by stimulating amino acids inhibits the functional activity of both cellular transmembrane sodium and calcium channels, as well as NMDA and AMPA receptors. Potentiates the neuroprotective effect of adenosine. Stimulates brain metabolism, enhances the absorption and absorption of glucose and oxygen by the brain. Stimulates glucose transport through the BBB, shifts glucose metabolism to an energetically more beneficial aerobic direction. Selectively inhibits Ca2 + -calmodulin-dependent cGMP-phosphodiesterase, increases the concentration of cAMP and cGMP in the brain tissue, as well as the concentration of ATP and the ratio of ATP / AMP. It stimulates cerebral metabolism of norepinephrine and serotonin, stimulates the ascending norepinephrine system, and has an antioxidant effect.

The drug selectively enhances cerebral blood flow: increases the cerebral fraction of the minute volume reduces the resistance of the vessels of the brain, without affecting the parameters of the general blood circulation (blood pressure, minute volume, heart rate, OPSS).

Does not cause the robbery phenomenon, on the contrary, with its use, the blood supply to the ischemic, but still viable area with low perfusion increases, the phenomenon of reverse robbery.

Improves the tolerance of hypoxia by brain cells, promoting the transport of oxygen to tissues due to a decrease in the affinity of red blood cells for it.

The drug improves microcirculation of the brain, inhibits platelet aggregation, reduces pathologically increased blood viscosity, increases the deformability of red blood cells and blocks their absorption of adenosine.
