Vinpocetine

Vinpocetine brukes for å forbedre hukommelsen og metabolisme i hjernen. Det blir også brukt til behandling av iskemi og reperfusjonsskade, og regnes som et nevrobeskyttende middel. Imidlertid finnes det flere troverdige kliniske studier som støtter bruk av vinpocetine ved hjerneslag, demens og andre sykdommer i nervesystemet.
