Cerebrolysin

Cerebrolysin® is a nootropic drug intended to normalize the metabolism of substances in the brain, increase the stability of nerve cells and restore brain functions after various intoxications, organic lesions and other forms of brain damage in adults and newborns. The drug contains low molecular weight biologically active neuropeptides that penetrate the blood-brain barrier directly to nerve cells. It is a 10-20% water-soluble peptide with a molecular weight ranging from 500 to 1400 Daltons.

Pharmacologically, Cerebrolysin® is a peptide fraction of finely crushed porcine brain tissue, consisting of a balanced and stable concentration of low molecular weight active neuropeptides, such as molecules of each with a molecular weight of less than 10
