METHYLCOBALAMIN+PIRACETAM contains 'Piracetam' and 'Methylcobalamin' primarily used to treat myoclonus. Piracetam acts on the brain, and nervous system, thereby protecting against shortness of oxygen. It also improves the activity of a chemical messenger called acetylcholine which helps in communication between brain cells. Methylcobalamin, a form of vitamin B12, protects the nerves from damage and promotes blood cell production.
You can take METHYLCOBALAMIN+PIRACETAM with or without food. Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to take METHYLCOBALAMIN+PIRACETAM for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you.

It might involve one muscle or group of muscles and can occur randomly or in a pattern. Myoclonus is generally a clinical sign of an underlying disease rather than the condition itself. Myoclonic jerks or twitches are caused by sudden muscle contractions, called positive myoclonus or muscle relaxations, called negative myoclonus. Myoclonus is a neurological disorder symptom that occurs due to disturbance in the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerve injury.
