Pharmacological action
Oktolipen – a metabolic agent, is an endogenous antioxidant that binds free radicals.
Thioctic acid is formed in the body by oxidative decarboxylation of alpha-keto acids. As a coenzyme of mitochondrial multienzyme complexes, it participates in the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvic acid and alpha-keto acids.
Oktolipen helps to lower blood glucose and increase glycogen in the liver, as well as overcome insulin resistance. By the nature of the biochemical action, thioctic acid is close to B vitamins. Participates in the regulation of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, stimulates cholesterol metabolism, and improves liver function.
Oktolipen has a hepatoprotective, lipid-lowering, hypocholesterolemic, hypoglycemic effect. Improves trophic neurons and axonal conduction, reduces the manifestations of diabetic and alcoholic polyneuropathy.

Treatment: Immediate hospitalization and application of measures in accordance with the general principles adopted in the case of accidental poisoning (including induction of vomiting, gastric lavage, intake of activated charcoal) is recommended if a significant drug overdose is suspected. Treatment of generalized seizures, lactic acidosis and other life-threatening effects of intoxication should be carried out in accordance with the principles of modern intensive care and be symptomatic. There is no specific antidote for the drug. Hemodialysis, hemoperfusion or filtration methods forcibly removing thioctic acid from the body are ineffective.
