| Introduction | Citicoline, named citicoline in the 2005 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, and its chemical name is choline cytosine 5′-diphosphate monosodium salt, which is the precursor of lecithin biosynthesis, when brain function declines At this time, the lecithin content in the brain tissue was significantly reduced. |
| Application | Lessens undesirable age-related changes in the brain.
Improves mental performance and memory. Enables the synthesis of phospholipids and acetylcholine. Restores the optimum amount of phosphatidylcholine and acetylcholine in the body systems. May help reduce brain damage after a stroke. May reduce symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. |
