Nicergoline
Nicergoline is an ergot alkaloid-like vasoprotective agent primarily used for the treatment of cerebral circulation disorders. It acts primarily by blocking Alpha-1 adrenergic receptors and modulating dopaminergic and serotonergic systems, leading to improved blood flow and neuroprotective effects. The substance is often used for age-related cognitive impairments. Side effects are rare but may include circulatory complaints.
Mechanism of Action
- Alpha-1-Adrenozeptor Blockade
- Dopaminergische Modulation
- Serotonergische Modulation
Names / Identifiers
