The human body, starting from birth and ending in old age, is a rather complex mechanism that periodically malfunctions. In order to improve the quality of life and save a person from various ailments, congenital and acquired, medicines are used. One of the most common drugs these days is Cortexin. The instructions for use prescribe the use of this drug for the following brain disorders:

- inflammation of the brain;
- violation of the blood circulation of the brain.
In addition, in pediatrics, the drug "Cortexin" annotation is prescribed for use during the treatment of epilepsy, cerebral palsy and to eliminate delays in the development of the child.
After the stress, in order to stimulate the production of dopamine and serotonin in the brain, as well as to accelerate the processes of neuron renewal, cortexin is used. The instruction for use states that after the end of the treatment course, the work of the entire nervous system normalizes and memory improves.
Cortexin is available as a white or yellowish powder, packaged in ampoules. The drug is dissolved with water for injection or novocaine. The drug enters the body by intramuscular injection, and the dosage should strictly comply with the doctor's prescriptions. Treatment is carried out according to the established diagnosis, and the duration is 5-10 days. In addition, treatment with the drug "Cortexin", the use of which has already been carried out in a single course, can be repeated if the doctor considers it necessary, after 1-6 months.
After completing the course of treatment, it was noted that in patients the aggressiveness decreases and the depressive state disappears.
The drug "Cortexin", the instructions for use which classifies it as a group of antidepressants, antipsychotics and tranquilizers, can be prescribed only by a doctor, otherwise unforeseen reactions from the nervous system are possible. The injections themselves should also be administered strictly under the supervision of a doctor, since one of the side effects is an allergic reaction.
