patient ENCEPHABOL, nootropics 100 mg, Dementia, lack of concentration notes
-
Special care is required when taking the drug

Driving and using machines:
- If the drug is used as intended, there are usually no restrictions on the ability to drive or operate machines. The same applies to work without a secure hold.
- Due to possible individually different reactions of individual patients, careful attention should be paid to possible impairment of the ability to react at the beginning of treatment and when the dose is increased.
