Cytidine 5'-Diphosphocholine

Citicoline whose chemical name choline cytosine nucleoside-5'-diphosphate monosodium salt, is a precursor for lecithin biosynthesis, and when brain function declines, the content of lecithin in brain tissue is significantly reduced.
Cytidine 5'-Diphosphocholine is a single nucleotide composed of nucleic acid, cytosine, pyrophosphate and choline, which is mainly used in clinical treatment of a variety of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and so on. Studies have also shown that citicoline can increase the brain's uptake of dopamine and glutamate, thereby improving cognitive performance. It can also be used for metabolic disorders after craniocerebral trauma and brain surgery, consciousness disorders, paralysis tremor, neurological deafness and tinnitus, and sleeping pills poisoning. In addition, it also has a good effect on Parkinson's syndrome and cerebral thrombus paraplegia.
