A nootropic drug with a pronounced antiamnestic effect has a direct activating effect on the integrative activity of the brain, promotes memory consolidation, improves concentration and mental activity, facilitates the learning process, increases the speed of information transfer between hemispheres of the brain and the stability of brain tissue to hypoxia and toxic effects ,has anticonvulsant action and anxiolytic activity, regulates the processes of activation and inhibition of the central nervous system (CNS), improves mood.
It has a positive effect on the metabolic processes and blood circulation of the brain, stimulates redox processes, increases the energy potential of the organism due to the utilization of glucose, improves the regional blood flow in the ischemic areas of the brain. Increases the content of noradrenaline, dopamine and serotonin in the brain, does not affect the level of GABA, does not bind to GABAA and GABAAT receptors, does not have a significant effect on the spontaneous bioelectrical activity of the brain.
It has no effect on respiration and cardiovascular system, shows an unexpressed diuretic effect, has anorexigenic activity in course use.
The stimulating effect is manifested in the ability to exert a moderately pronounced effect, manifested in regard to motor reactions, increased physical performance, marked antagonism to the catalepytic action of neuroleptics, and also the weakening of the expression of the hypnotics of ethanol and hexobarbital.

Against the background of taking the drug, there is an improvement in vision, which is manifested in an increase in the severity, brightness and fields of vision.
Improves blood circulation of the lower extremities.
Stimulates the production of antibodies in response to antigen administration, which indicates immunostimulating properties, but at the same time does not promote the development of immediate type hypersensitivity and does not change the allergic skin inflammatory reaction caused by the introduction of a foreign protein.
With the course application does not develop drug dependence, tolerance, "withdrawal syndrome."
The effect is manifested with a single dose, which is important when using the drug in extreme conditions.
Does not have teratogenic, mutagenic, carcinogenic and embryotoxic properties. Has a low toxicity, the lethal dose in an acute experiment is 800 mg / kg.
