Piractim 800mg Tablets

Piractim 800mg Tablets contains Piracetam 800mg, a nootropic medicine. Made by Global Pharmaceuticals, it is prescribed for myoclonus and memory and concentration problems. Pack size: 30 tablets.

Uses of Piractim 800mg Tablets

Piractim 800mg Tablets is licensed in the UK as an add-on treatment for cortical myoclonus, a condition causing sudden jerking movements. In Pakistan and some other countries, doctors also prescribe it for memory or concentration problems in older people or after a stroke or head injury, although the evidence for these uses is limited. It should be used only on medical advice.

How Piractim 800mg Tablets works

Piracetam is a derivative of the brain chemical GABA, but it does not act like a sedative. It is thought to improve the flexibility of nerve cell membranes and the way brain cells communicate, and it also makes red blood cells less sticky, which may help blood flow in small vessels.
