Frequently asked questions about Citicoline
Q. I have been prescribed CICOLINE 500 MG TABLET for Alzheimer’s disease. What is its role, and how does it work?
CICOLINE 500 MG TABLET is a form of an essential nutrient called choline which is naturally present in the body. It protects the nerve cells in the brain from damage and also helps to repair the damaged nerve cells. Therefore, it improves learning, memory, and cognitive function (processing information or perception) in Alzheimer’s disease.
Q. Can I take alcohol during treatment with CICOLINE 500 MG TABLET?
There are no studies to determine the effect of alcohol on treatment with CICOLINE 500 MG TABLET. However, since CICOLINE 500 MG TABLET is prescribed for stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, head injury, and age-related memory impairment, it is best to avoid the consumption of alcohol.
Q. Can students take CICOLINE 500 MG TABLET to improve memory and learning?
No, students should not take CICOLINE 500 MG TABLET since studies show that CICOLINE 500 MG TABLET is effective only in age-related memory problems, memory problems associated with long-standing stroke, and in Alzheimer’s disease. Moreover, there is no data available for use of this medicine in children.
