About Stronerv Plus Tablet 10

Stronerv Plus Tablet 10 is a brain health medicine used to help protect brain cells and support recovery of memory, thinking and movement in adults after a stroke or other event affecting the brain's blood supply. It is a combination medicine containing citicoline, which supports the health of brain cell membranes, and piracetam, which supports brain cell function and blood flow, and belongs to a class of medicines called nootropics.

This medicine works by helping repair and stabilise the membranes of brain cells while improving how brain cells communicate and how blood reaches them, which supports recovery. Take it by mouth as prescribed. It works best alongside any rehabilitation, physiotherapy or occupational therapy.

Regular gentle activity, mentally stimulating tasks such as reading or puzzles, and good sleep can support recovery after a stroke alongside this medicine. Follow your doctor's advice on blood pressure and other stroke prevention measures.

Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have kidney problems or a bleeding tendency, and about other medicines you take, especially blood thinners. Report new or worsening confusion, agitation, a slow heartbeat or a change in blood pressure.
