Neurocerebrin: Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Warning

Neurocerebrin is a multivitamin supplement that contains  B complex vitamins,  16mg-tryptophan 200mg-calcium glycerophosphate 116mg. Neurotropic B vitamins play crucial roles as coenzymes and beyond in the nervous system. Particularly, they contribute essentially to the maintenance of a healthy nervous system.

Their importance is highlighted by many neurological diseases related to deficiencies in one or more of these vitamins, but they can improve certain neurological conditions even without a (proven) deficiency.

Tryptophan, another ingredient in Neurocerebrin is converted into the neurotransmitter serotonin in the brain, and serotonin in turn is active in areas associated with eating behaviors, passivity/violence, addiction, and depression. However, tryptophan and serotonin are also involved with many areas of cognition.

How should Neurocerebrin be taken?

Take Neurocerebrin exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Follow the directions on the package or on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand.

What if I miss a dose?

 If your doctor has told you to take Neurocerebrin regularly, take the missed dose as soon as you remember it. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

Safety of Neurocerebrin

Neurocerebrin supplementation may benefit you if your body is lacking in one or more of the vitamins or essential amino acids. A healthcare provider or nutritionist can help analyze your diet to determine if you should consider taking amino acid supplements.

Three of the most commonly mentioned risks of long-term amino acid supplementation are nausea, headache, and pain.

Amino acid supplements can impact your blood sugar levels. This means that you should avoid them before and after surgery.

Many experts advise against taking supplements that contain even a single amino acid like Neurocerebrin. Amino acid supplements may interact with other medications that you are taking, including diabetes and thyroid medication. Always check with your doctor before supplementing with amino acids.
