Memorin is a herbal medicinal product. It stabilizes cellular metabolism processes, tissue perfusion and blood rheological properties.

The substance has a dosage-dependent regulatory effect on the vascular system, potentiates the production of relaxing endothelial factor, and in addition has a vasodilating effect on small arteries and increases venous tone, which allows for the regulation of blood filling of blood vessels. [ 1 ]

It regulates the processes of release, destruction, and reabsorption of neurotransmitters, as well as their functioning as complementary endings. [ 2 ]

It demonstrates antihypoxic activity, stimulates metabolic processes within tissues and organs, and also promotes cellular accumulation of macroergs and increases the rate of oxygen removal with glucose, and also harmonizes mediating processes within the brain.
