After briefly evaluating the contraindications and indications of vasoactive and eumetabolic therapy of cerebral ischemia, the paper considers the main drugs at present in use in therapy of the syndrome induced by diffused cerebral arteriosclerosis. Among the drugs with a mainly vasoactive effect,
On the basis of the assumption of an affinity between cerebral and retinal vessels, it was sought to demonstrate that the variations induced in the retinal circulation are akin to those occurring at the cerebral level. The technique of retinal fluorescein angiography was used to evaluate the
Vinpocetine has been compared with 3 structurally related drugs for activity in protecting mice from hypoxia-induced lethality upon i.p. administration. In order of potency, vinpocetine (ED50 = 16.6 mg/kg), 1-eburnamonine (ED50 = 21.0 mg/kg), vinconate (ED50 approximately 25 mg/kg), and vincamine
The effects of a new eburnamenine derivative (3 beta,14 alpha, 16 alpha)-(+/-)-14,15-dihydro-20,21-dinoreburnamenin-14-ol (vindeburnol, RU 24722) on EEG, on brain energy metabolism and on local cerebral blood flow (LCBF) and in different experimental models of cerebral insufficiency were compared
