Pharmacology

Cerevas improves cerebral hypoxia tolerance by increasing cerebral metabolism, increasing glucose metabolism to the energetically more favorable aerobic pathway while also increasing the anaerobic pathway, increasing ATP concentration and ATP/AMP ratio in the brain, and elevating cerebral norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin levels.

Cerevas improves cerebral microcirculation significantly by suppressing platelet aggregation, decreasing pathologically elevated blood viscosity, and increasing erythrocyte deformability. It also enhances O2 delivery into tissues by lowering erythrocyte O2 affinity.

It enhances cerebral blood flow and the brain's contribution of cardiac output while lowering cerebral vascular resistance without impacting systemic circulation (blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, and total peripheral resistance). It does not cause the steal phenomenon; rather, it enhances the blood supply to the damaged and ischemic areas while leaving the intact portions unaffected (inverse steal effect). It raises blood flow even more, which is already enhanced due to hypoxia.

Dosage & Administration

Vinpocetine is given in three split dosages with meals, for a total of 15-30 mg each day. The long-term maintenance dose is 15 mg three times each day.

Interaction

Those who added Vinpocetine to their Warfarin dosage noticed a slight alteration in prothrombin time. The modifications appear to be minor. So yes, no further interactions have been documented. As a result, it can be used in a variety of ways.

Contraindications

Cerevas should not be used during pregnancy or nursing. It's also not recommended if you're allergic to any of the ingredients.

Side Effects

Vinpocetine is well tolerated by most people. A brief drop in blood pressure and tachycardia may occur in some circumstances.
