Citicoline sodium powder is an endogenous intermediate for the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (the main phospholipid in eukaryotic cells). It also acts as a choline donor in the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Citicoline has a protective effect on cerebral ischemia, traumatic brain injury and memory impairment. Increasing the intake of citicoline can stimulate the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, sphingomyelin, and cardiolipin and weaken the release of arachidonic acid and the accumulation of ceramide.

Main Function

1. Citicoline Sodium is a brain chemical that occurs naturally in the body.

2. As a medicine, Citicoline Sodium is taken by mouth as a supplement or given by IV or as a shot.

3. Citicoline Sodium is used for Alzheimer's disease and other types of dementia, head trauma,cerebrovascular disease such as stroke, age-related memory loss, Parkinson's disease, and glaucoma.

4. Citicoline Sodium can reduce the resistance of blood vessel of brain and accelerate substance metabolism of brain.

5. It also can activate the mechanism of reticular formation of brain stem.

6. It can be used in the therapy of acute craniocerebral trauma and disturbance of consciousness after brain operation.
