What is Prexaron (Citicoline) used for?

Prexaron (Citicoline) is an oral medication prescribed for the improvement of memory or brain function following a stroke or brain injury. It contains naturally occurring chemicals that boost existing levels to increase brain function and memory. This action may also make it useful for treating some symptoms of Parkinson`s disease or attention deficit-hyperactive disorder (ADHD). Your doctor may also recommend the use of this medication for the treatment of other unlisted conditions.

How should I use Prexaron (Citicoline)?

Prexaron (Citicoline) should always be used according to your doctor`s instructions and those included with the packaging to ensure the safest and most effective results from treatment. The normal dosage is one tablet taken once daily, but your individual directions will depend on your age, weight, health condition, the condition being treated, and the severity of your symptoms. These should be swallowed with a full glass of water and may be taken on an empty stomach, although a snack or meal is recommended prior to use if you experience nausea. Avoid crushing or splitting the tablets as this may destroy or alter the effects of their contents. Ask your doctor any questions you have about the medicine to ensure the correct usage.

Stop using the medicine and contact your doctor as soon as possible if any serious side effects appear such as severe diarrhoea that is bloody or watery, chest pain, hypertension, or signs of an allergic reaction including hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing.
