Lucetam inhibits platelet aggregation and restores the elasticity of erythrocyte membranes, as well as the ability of the latter to the passage through the microcirculation. It reduces adhesion of red blood cells. At a dose of 9.6 g reduces levels of fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor by 30-40% and prolongs bleeding time.

In the treatment of the effects of stroke appoint 4.8 g / day.

When alcohol withdrawal syndrome - 12 g / day. The maintenance dose - 2.4 g / day.

For the treatment of vertigo and associated disorders of balance administered 2.4-4.8 g / day.

When cortical myoclonus treatment starts with a dose of 7.2 g / day, once every 3-4 days, increase the dose of 4.8 g / day to a maximum dose of 24 g / day. Treatment continued throughout the period of the disease. Every 6 months should attempt to reduce the dose or stop the preparation, gradually reducing the dose of 1.2 g every 2 days in order to prevent an attack.
