Abstract:
This article discusses the potential for pharmacotherapy for vascular mild cognitive impairment in various age groups. It presents the results of the double-blind, randomized clinical trial MEMO using the antioxidant and antihypoxant drug Mexidol. Using a battery of tests to assess cognitive function, the sequential administration of parenteral and oral Mexidol demonstrated high efficacy in each of the three groups analyzed: 40-60, 61-75, and 76-90 years. Mexidol demonstrated a high safety profile in all age groups.

Key words: vascular moderate cognitive impairment, chronic cerebral ischemia, antioxidants, Mexidol.
