Corvalol Fito, tablets 20 pcs

Sedative

Pharmacodynamics

A combined drug, the action of which is caused by the properties of its constituent substances. It has sedative and antispasmodic effects, moderate cardiotonic effect (slows the rhythm and increases the force of the heart beats), and has moderate hypotensive properties.

Ethylbromisovalerianat has sedative and antispasmodic effect caused by irritation, mainly of receptors in the oral cavity and nasopharynx, reduction of reflex excitability in central nervous system and increased inhibition in cortical and subcortical structures of the brain, also by decrease of activity of central vasomotor centers and direct local spasmolytic effect on smooth muscles.

The motherwort herb has a pronounced sedative (sedative), moderate cardiotonic (slows rhythm and increases the force of heart contractions), moderate hypotensive action.

Pearmint oil has reflex vasodilatory, antispasmodic, mild choleretic, antiseptic action. The mechanism of action is related to the ability to irritate the “cold” receptors of the oral mucosa and reflexively dilate mainly vessels of the heart and brain. It eliminates the phenomena of flatulence by irritating the mucosal receptors of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), increasing intestinal peristalsis.
