COMPOSITION:
Calcium bromide 200 mg/5 ml and 400 mg/10 ml in one ampoule.

ACTION:
The bromide preparations enhance the processes of inhibition in the brain cortex and restore the balance between the processes of inhibition and stimulation. That is obtained by determining the individual dosage according to the particularities of patient's nervous system type. Calcium bromide has a tranquilizing and anticonvulsive action - mainly in epileptiform convulsions and eclampsia (the effect is stronger at higher doses). The action on the nervous system is due mainly to the competitive substitution of chlorine ions, which imposes the requirement for a salt-free diet during the treatment. The calcium ions play an important role in realizing the effects of catechlomides, thromboxan and magnesium ions by means of the mechanisms of a great number of calcium-depended regulatory processes.

Bromine is resorbed well in the digestive tract, it is distributed in the organism extracellularly and is eliminated mainly through the kidneys with very long period of halfelimination - it cumulates.
