PIRACETAM

Piracetam is a nootropic agent, i.e. a psychotropic drug which improves directly the efficiency of the higher telencephalic functions of the brain involved in cognitive processes such as those related to learning, memory, thought and consciousness, both in normal and deficient situations, without being sedative of psychostimulant. Piracetam exerts those various activities by different ways of action : it modulates brain neurotransmission, promotes metabolic conditions for neuronal plasticity & improves microcirculation through antispasmodic & haem-orrheological properties, without being a vasodilator.
