Cortexin - injections

The brain is the main organ of the central nervous system, so its normal functioning is so important. Moreover, it is necessary to maintain the work of neurons after injuries and various circulatory disorders of the brain tissue. To restore the correct activity of the brain, nootropic drugs are prescribed, one of which is Cortexin - the injections of this medication are widely used in neurological practice and pediatrics.

Indications for use of injections of Cortexin

The main actions that the drug under consideration are due to the properties of the same active ingredient:

Thanks to this, the medicine is capable of:

According to the instructions, injections of Cortexin are prescribed in such pathologies and conditions:

In pediatrics, the drug is used in the complex treatment of cerebral palsy, delayed speech and psychomotor development in children. Possible treatment of critical conditions of newborns due to intrauterine and postnatal damage to the nervous system.

Than to breed Cortexin for a nyxis?

The described drug is available in the form of a powder (lyophilizate), intended for the preparation of a solution. Thus, polypeptide fractions retain their active properties better.

As a solvent for Cortexin, the following fluids are recommended:

Other agents similar in mechanism of action to the above solutions, for example, lidocaine, should not be used.

How to do a Cortexin injection?

First, it is necessary to dilute the lyophilizate correctly. To do this, plug the vial with a needle, use a syringe to inject 1-2 ml of one of these liquids. It is recommended to direct the jet of solution to the wall of the vial, as this will avoid the formation of foam. Shake the resulting composition is not necessary.

The existing solution should be injected into the syringe and administered to the patient intramuscularly at an average rate. It is important to monitor whether or not the patient is suffering a Cortexin injection. These injections are painless, but can cause unpleasant sensations, if a large amount of air bubbles forms during the dilution of the powder.

The standard dosage of the drug for adults is 10 mg of lyophilisate once a day for 10 days. With ischemic strokes or complications, double injections are given in the same dose, but after 10 days, the course of treatment should be repeated.
