Summary:
In a study that included 34 patients, the effectiveness of Mexidol's preparation in the correction of astheno-vegetative disorders was studied in persons who have suffered a mild craniocre trauma (LCHMT) and a concussion of the brain. The use of Mexidol as part of the complex therapy of these disorders made it possible to improve the results of treatment compared to the control group of patients who did not receive Mexidol. It is noted that the prescription of the drug is preferably at an earlier date from the moment of injury. A distinct therapeutic effect was obtained when using Mexidol in a daily dose of 375 mg in a tablet form for 28-30 days in the acute and intermediate periods of the LCCMT. Side effects and complications during therapy were not observed in any group. It is concluded that Mexidol can be used in the complex treatment of LCHMTs, a concussion of the brain and the correction of the post -compliance syndrome.
