• Piracetam increases the levels of a substance (acetylcholine) in the brain, which is involved in improving memory functioning by slowing down the breakdown of acetylcholine (a substance that allows nerves to communicate and is essential for normal brain functioning).
• Vinpocetine works like a neuroprotective agent that minimises damage to the brain. It also prevents the risk of blood clotting in the brain, which makes brain cells (neurons) die.
