The mechanism of action is due to the direct influence of Pantogam on the GABAB-receptor-channel complex. The drug has a nootropic and anticonvulsant effect. Pantocalcin® increases the resistance of the brain to hypoxia and the effects of toxic substances, stimulates anabolic processes in neurons, combines a moderate sedative effect with a mild stimulating effect, reduces motor excitability, and activates mental and physical performance. Improves GABA metabolism in chronic alcohol intoxication and after ethanol withdrawal. It is able to inhibit acetylation reactions involved in the mechanisms of inactivation of procaine (novocaine) and sulfonamides, thereby prolonging the action of the latter. Causes inhibition of pathologically increased cystic reflex and detrusor tone. Pharmacokinetics Absorption Rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract.
