Clinical Pharmacology
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, gamma-aminobutyric acid) is a biogenic amine, restores metabolic processes in the brain, promotes the utilization of glucose by the brain and the removal of toxic metabolic products from it, and provides normalization of the dynamics of nerve processes in the brain. Increases the productivity of thinking, improves memory, has a mild psychostimulating effect, a positive effect on the restoration of movements and speech after a violation of cerebral circulation. It helps to reduce and stabilize increased blood pressure and reduce the subjective symptoms of arterial hypertension (dizziness, sleep disturbance).
It has a moderate antihypoxic and anticonvulsant action. In patients with diabetes, reduces the glucose content, with normal glucose in the blood has the opposite effect (due to glycogenolysis).
Pharmacokinetics
Absorption is fast, fairly complete. Cmax in the blood plasma is reached after 60 minutes, then the concentration rapidly decreases. After 24 hours, GABA is not detected in the blood plasma.
Indications
Conditions after cerebral circulatory disorders; after traumatic brain injury. Atherosclerosis of cerebral vessels with symptoms of softening of the brain. Alcohol encephalopathy and polyneuritis. Headache, dizziness, sleep disorders in arterial hypertension. Cerebral palsy; effects of traumatic brain and birth injury in children; mental retardation in children; kinetozy.
