Mexidol Widely Used by Paramedics

About this preparation Mexidol I read a few years ago in a medical journal article, it was about using it in a pre-hospital stage, ie an ambulance.

I talked with the chief medical officer, I decided to order a small batch for our emergency department, the head of which I am.

As antihypoxant it represented primarily of interest to us in different states, which are accompanied by a state of acute hypoxia, i.e. oxygen deficiency, focusing on such evidence, we began to introduce it in very serious cases - drowning, hanging, carbon monoxide poisoning and smoke and surprisingly received a significant result.

In some cases, as they say "on the needle" that is already upon administration of the drug Mexidol, patients regaining consciousness. Further, the study drug and articles about it – Mexidol began to be used, and in another aspect - with severe alcohol poisoning, accompanied by comas - and here it is also very well-behaved showed the following section of application was the problem with the pancreas - an exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis and in acute pancreatitis drug is able to inhibit the activation of proteolytic enzymes, which are under such exacerbations may self-digest.

The introduction of the drug Mexidol in the pre-hospital (ambulance) prevents the development of pancreatic necrosis, which is a consequence of all exacerbations of pancreatitis.

Next - anti-hypoxic effect of the drug is not only to improve brain oxygen supply, but also good improves blood circulation of the brain structures that found the use of the drug in acute cerebral circulatory disorders, cerebro-vascular disorders in older people and in different types of vascular and post-traumatic encephalopathies. The appearance of this drug Mexidol in tablet form it has simplified its welcome for these patients. And the introduction of the drug Mexidol solution is now recommended as standard to assist with stroke, neuroscientists agree with this, which is now quite widely it is used.
