Alfobig drug belongs to the group of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors whose main ingredient is choline alfoscerate, which is commonly used to treat stroke and restore function after stroke, traumatic brain injury, dementia or reduced activity, mobility, disease. Alzheimer's. So how does Alfobig work?1. What is Alfobig?
Alfobig drug has the main ingredient choline alfoscerate, which is an anti-cholinergic ingredient, enhances the synthesis of acetylcholine and phospholipids of neuronal membranes from starvation, helps restore nerve function, improves memory and prevents changes neurological damage caused by brain damage (such as age, stroke, trauma, cerebrovascular accident). Clinical studies have shown that choline alfoscerate will have the following effects on the body:Effects on the neurotransmitters of the cholinergic system. Upregulation of synaptic transmission improves behavior and learning. Affects neuroplasticity. Affects nerve cell function. Pharmacokinetics Alfobig is well tolerated by both oral and parenteral routes and is largely eliminated in the urine as inactive form. Alfobig is usually indicated in the following cases:
Stroke, rehabilitation of patients after stroke. Traumatic brain injury, recovery from trauma and neurosurgery. Dementia, impaired memory. Brain impairment, dizziness, dizziness, headache. Reduced movement, reduced concentration of attention. Alzheimer's disease, confusion, memory impairment in the elderly. Alfobig is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients and pregnant women.
2. Dosage of the drug Alfobig
Depending on the subjects and treatment goals, the dose of Alfobig will be different, specifically as follows:
Oral: 1 tablet/time x 2-3 times/day x 4 weeks. The duration of use can be extended according to the patient's response and according to the doctor's instructions. Intramuscular or slow intravenous injection: 1000mg (1 ampoule)/time/day x 4 weeks.
3. Side effects of the drug Alfobig
In some patients when using Alfobig, side effects may occur such as:
Hypersensitivity reactions such as: Rash, urticaria. Symptoms of shock: Low blood pressure, shortness of breath, cyanosis. Insomnia, headache, dizziness. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. When experiencing adverse reactions after using Alfobig, it is necessary to stop taking the drug immediately, severe cases or allergic reactions require supportive treatment (keeping ventilation, using epinephrine, breathing oxygen, using antihistamines, corticosteroids, etc.). ..)
4. Be careful when using Alfobig
Some general notes when using Alfobig drugs include:
Patients with impaired consciousness due to severe injuries or brain surgery should use Alfobig together with hemostatic and antihypertensive drugs. With caution when using Alfobig for the elderly, the dose should be reduced because the physiological function of this subject has decreased. If symptoms such as hypotension, fatigue or shortness of breath are observed, the drug should be discontinued immediately and appropriate therapy instituted. If the patient complains of pain at the injection site or bleeding back into the syringe, the needle should be removed immediately and injected into another site. When administered intravenously, the injection should be administered as slowly as possible. Reference source: pharmog.com
