Improves the functional state of the brain due to the normalization of tissue metabolism and effects on cerebral circulation (increases the volume and linear speed of cerebral blood flow, reduces the tone of the vessels of the brain, improves microcirculation, and has antiaggregant effect).Promotes the reduction or disappearance of feelings of anxiety, tension, anxiety and fear, normalizes sleep, has some anticonvulsant effect.
Does not affect cholino- and adrenergic receptors.
