Acyzol is an alternative to Hypoxen?
18 Oct 2016
Hardly anyone of the gentlemen climbers, rushing to the shining peaks, did not experience the "charms" of altitude sickness, crossing the border of hypoxia.
The boundary of this (according to various sources), is depending on the mountain, located at altitudes of 3500-4500 meters above sea level.
Probably everyone remembers headache, irritability, apathy, decreased performance, and sometimes nausea and vomiting. In general, means of prevention of this condition old as climbing, - the right acclimatization schedule and increase resistance of the organism by training aimed at developing general endurance. In addition, you can use antihypoxants - drugs that increase resistance to hypoxia target organs: the brain and myocardium. For example, the domestic development called hypoxia. It creates a miracle remedy, primarily for combat divers, Air Force pilots, professional athletes as increase efficiency, resistance to hypoxia and reduces the recovery period after exercise. The mechanism of action - improving the utilization of oxygen to tissues. Someone may have used this drug. Research is carried out mainly on athletes engaged in cyclic sports.
And now the market goes Acyzol is development of Soviet scientists as an antidote for poisoning by carbon monoxide. Acyzol has, on assurances of manufacturers, a number of other advantages and what is interesting to us is antihypoxant. I decided to try for myself. I take on the ascent of Kilimanjaro (5896 m). Standard program - climbing on the fifth day of the intersection of the gate to the national park. Three years ago, up to the same and on the same route, then I used Hypoxen. Any medical controls were not even oximeter unsold, some subjective feeling: hard, head sick, do not run. 12:00 go. At this time I tried Acyzol was much easier. I went for 6 hours. And it seems clear in my head. Pulse again not considered. Oxygen saturation, too. Next Time I will try to use Mildronate.
