When a person is tired, feels bad, is experiencing the consequences of life turmoil or constant stress at work, his body suffers an overload - it works literally for wear. Usually, the human nervous system suffers most. Abnormalities in the work of the central nervous system are also caused by injuries of the skull, a pathological condition of the cerebral vessels and other conditions, which will be mentioned below. Any unnecessary overvoltage of the central nervous system can cause it to fail. This article will focus on the therapeutic care that can be given to a patient who is experiencing painful disruptions in the central nervous system.
In such situations, it is worth contacting a neurologist. Typically, the doctor advises to use any drug from the group of drugs that have a positive effect on mental activity in general. Such drugs are also called “neuroprotectors”, one of them is Gliatilin.

Operating principle

A little running ahead, it is worth noting that the human brain consists of specific cells - neurons that generate impulses. These cells interact with each other using synaptic connections based on the activity of synapses. Through special substances, which are, in fact, conductors, various impulses arrive at the neuron synapses. In the future, the impulses control the activity of the whole organism.
The active ingredient of the drug is choline alfoscerate, which is a cholinergic substance. Gliatilin improves the conductivity of nerve impulses to neurons that are particularly sensitive to acetylcholine. Such neurons are also called cholinergic. Acetylcholine - is a special ester of choline and acetic acid, which conducts signals to the PNS. Choline alfoscerat stimulates the brain's cognitive abilities. In particular, the drug normalizes such features of the body as:
    brain intellectual functions;
    memory;
    stress resistance;
    some resistance to hypoxia.
Enzymatic cleavage of choline alfoscerate is used to synthesize two new substances, choline and glycerophosphate. The first substance is a kind of “accelerator” of metabolic processes of the brain cell (neuron). The second substance is the basis for the formation in the body of choline ether and acetic acid, which, as has been said, conducts nerve impulses between neurons.
The maximum concentration in the brain tissues is achieved due to the penetration of the substance through the blood-brain barrier (blood-brain barrier). A small amount of the drug accumulate tissue of the lungs and liver. In the process of removing substances from the body, the lungs take over much of the work, bringing up to eighty percent of the medication through themselves. The rest of the volume is “utilized” in the kidneys and intestines.
    Important. Gliatilin does not affect the reproductive system of the body, and also does not cause mutations and produces a negative effect on the embryo.

Indications and contraindications for use

Gliatilin is prescribed for the following pathological processes:
    With injuries of the skull, characterized by the death of brain tissue and accompanied by a coma, local disturbances of some structures of the central nervous system, PNS, clouding of consciousness.
    After hemorrhagic stroke.
    With ischemic stroke.
    With chronic damage to the brain capillaries.
    With anomalies in behavior and emotional instability.
    With a pronounced irritability.
    When senile mental disorder (pseudomelancholia).
    With a dulled or completely absent interest in life (events, things).
    With specific disorders, expressed by the pathological states of mental functions, the brain, developing after a stroke.
Special contraindications are not identified, except for the personal intolerance of the components of the drug. The drug is contraindicated for women who are in a state of pregnancy (at any time) or mothers who are breastfeeding.
In certain situations, the drug is prescribed to children. Indications for use for children are the same as for adults: emotional disturbances, recovery period after TBI (traumatic brain injury) and disorders of brain activity. The dosage, as well as the form of the drug (Gliatilin capsules or injections), when taken by children is strictly individual and must be agreed with the neurologist.

Release form

The composition of the drug includes:
    one thousand milligrams of active substance (1000 mg of choline alfoscerate);
    the rest is physiological saline.
Types of the drug that are on sale: "Gliatilin" capsules and "Gliatilin" injection solution. Usually in one pack contains from one to three ampoules. Each ampoule of four milliliters (4 ml).

Side effects of Gliatilin injections

Side effects of Gliatilin include symptoms such as:
    Various manifestations of allergies (skin and food).
    Nausea caused by dopaminergic activity.
However, in most cases, the drug is well tolerated by patients, even if it is taken long enough.

Dosage and administration

Consider the instructions for use of Gliatilin injections. When using Gliatilin as an intravenous drug, the recommended dose is from one thousand to three thousand milligrams per day or one to three ampoules of solution for injection.
When using Gliatilin as an intramuscular drug, the recommended dose is one thousand milligrams per day (1000 mg) or one ampoule of solution for injection per day.
For intravenous administration of the drug to adults experiencing acute symptoms, it is necessary to dilute the substance contained in one ampoule (4 ml) in fifty milliliters of water for injection (50 ml of physical solution). The drug is administered via an IV drip, with a droplet formation rate of sixty to eighty drops per minute (60-80 drops / min.).
The duration of Gliatilin is no more than ten days. If necessary, continue to use the drug and further to achieve positive results in treatment. In the case of the normalization of the state, it is recommended to switch to capsules (tablets). If there are any changes in the use of Gliatilin in the patient's well-being, you should consult with your doctor.
For patients suffering from cerebrovascular insufficiency, behavioral and emotional disorders, as well as multi-infarction dementia, the dose of the drug is four hundred milligrams (one capsule) three times a day. Therapy is continued for three to six months.

How to enter the drug intramuscularly

Prick Gliatilin, like any other drug, should be only in the largest muscles. For example, it can be the gluteal muscles, the anterolateral muscles of the thigh, or the deltoid muscles of the shoulder. Most often in medical institutions (and in private practice) the preparation of the drug in the buttocks or shoulder is practiced. It is worth emphasizing that drugs are injected into the shoulder when there is an urgent need - it is urgent to anesthetize the patient or remove the shock. When you enter the drug in this area is its speedy penetration into the blood.
If the situation “tolerates”, then usually Gliatilin injections are made into a certain part of the buttock, into the upper outer area. This area is distinguished by the thickness of the muscle layer and therefore, almost completely eliminates the likelihood of a needle falling into a nerve or large blood vessel.
In order to determine the place where the drug should be administered, the entire buttock is divided into four parts. It is necessary to imagine that each part is a square. For work, you only need the top left (on one buttock) or the top right (on the other buttock). After the squares are found, they should find a center (approximately). This place will be suitable for intramuscular injection of Gliatilin. It is worth noting that long-term intramuscular use of Gliatilin (injection in the gluteal zone) can lead to injections in places of injection, bruises and even abscesses. Then the injection area is worth changing.
If for some reason it is difficult to inject into the buttock, then the drug should be injected into the broad muscle of the thigh. To select the injection site, place your hand on the front side of the thigh. In this case, the fingers should touch the knee. The area of ​​the muscle, located under the part of the palm, located closer to the wrist, will be the area of ​​the injection. It is necessary to focus on the specified area, because Otherwise, there is a high probability to get into a large vessel or to touch a nerve.
    Important. If the injection is made to a child or to a thin person, then before the introduction of the drug, the injection area is gathered into the fold, and then a syringe needle is inserted into it.
For the injection, you need a sterile syringe, a cotton swab dipped in alcohol and a vial of Gliatilin. The needle is removed from the case at the very last moment - when you need to take medicine and enter it. Hands should be clean.
Features of action when conducting Gliatilin injection:
    Injected muscles should be relaxed. Therefore, it is better for the patient to lie down. If there is no such possibility, then the leg into which the drug will be prick should be relaxed as much as possible (lean on something).
    Process the injection site with alcohol before injection.
    A needle is inserted into the thigh at a slight angle, not deep - by 2-3 cm. The needle is inserted into the buttock at an angle of 90 degrees, much deeper - by 3-5 cm. It is necessary that the needle remain a third above the skin. So it will be more convenient to extract it if it breaks off.
    It is necessary to administer the drug slowly.
    As soon as the medicine is injected, the needle is quickly removed, and the injection site is treated with a cotton swab.

How to enter the drug with a dropper

In some cases, the doctor recommends that you put a drip with Gliatilin to the patient. The drug penetrates the blood well and is immediately absorbed by the body.
The dropper is carried out as follows. The patient is conveniently arranged: lying or sitting. If he is sitting, then under the elbow enclose a pad of oilcloth. On the shoulder impose a tight harness. Place the waistline choose five centimeters higher than the place of the injection needle. At the same time, the pulse should be clearly captured on the radial artery, and part of the arm below the waist should be slightly “blue”. The patient must clench his fingers into a fist and unclench, repeating it several times. In the area of ​​the elbow bend grope pulsing, full of blood vein. The skin over the vein and around it is well treated with alcohol (cotton is used, soaked in alcohol). Five centimeters below the point of entry, the needles slightly pull the fabric over themselves (with a vein being gripped).
    Important. The needle should be held at an angle of forty-five degrees to the vein, cut up, along the vein and a half centimeters from the injection point.
First, the solution is allowed to flow out of the needle in order to displace air. Then, the flow of the drug into the needle is blocked by closing the clip of the dropper. This is how the dropper system is checked before work. The needle is gently injected under the skin, further reducing the angle of inclination (the needle should be located almost parallel to the skin). Once in the vein, the needle is pushed slightly forward, along the vein, a third of the length. As soon as blood appears in the tube, the dropper clamp opens.
The harness is removed, and the patient is asked to fold his fingers into a fist. The needle is attached to the skin with small strips of plaster. Set the speed of the dropper, which the doctor advised. As soon as there are literally a few drops of the drug in the bottle, the dropper is turned off with a clip.
If the injection site is swollen, it is urgent to stop the flow of the drug into the blood and inject the drug through the vein of the other hand.

Overdose

An overdose of the drug is rare. In patients with overdose cases, the following symptoms were noted:
    nausea;
    pain in the gastrointestinal tract;
    episodic clouding of consciousness;
    allergic reactions characterized by skin rash (urticaria, dermatitis).
Cases of severe overdose of the drug were not recorded.
