Role of vinpocetine in cerebrovascular diseases

Pharmacological Reports, 2011
A cerebrovascular accident, or stroke, is defined as the abrupt onset of a neurological deficit, which can be due to ischemia. Cerebral ischemia is caused by a reduction in blood flow that thereby decreases cerebral metabolism. Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion leads to irreversible brain damage and plays an important role in the development of certain ...

Study on the absorption of vinpocetine and apovincaminic acid

European Journal of Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics, 1993
The absorption of vinpocetine (Cavinton) and apovincaminic acid, compounds showing a marked difference in their physico-chemical properties, was studied in rats in in situ loop experiments by using radiolabelled compounds. In the case of apovincaminic acid, the investigations also involved the estimation of the portion of radioactivity excreted in ...
