Why use Nootropil (Piracetam)?

The main purpose of using Nootropil is the effectiveness of Piracetam. Piracetam might slow the progression of Alzheimer’s. It is found to improve the cognitive functions of the brain when used for a long term in high dosages for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

Secondly, Nootropil is one of the most effective dopamine supplements. Piracetam increased the level of Dopamine metabolites. Positive effects are observed for Piracetam with its action on dopaminergic transmission.

Uses of Nootropil

Besides being an effective treatment for Parkinson’s disease, it is also used for treating the following medical conditions:

• Alzheimer’s disease
• Stroke & memory loss in Parkinson’s disease
• Age-related memory loss
• Head injury
• Cortical Myoclonus
• Cognitive Enhancer

Dementia in Parkinson’s disease is more likely to happen as Parkinson’s patients live longer. Thus, the presence of psychiatric illness, especially depression, may interfere with cognition & exacerbate memory loss. Using this tablet compensates for memory loss by increasing dopamine levels.

Also, short-term memory deficits found in Alzheimer’s-type dementia are repaired by Nootropil.

As the memory loss rate is faster in Alzheimer’s patients, It proves to be effective for these patients. Lower memory performance is common for Alzheimer’s patients due to frontal lobe dysfunction.
