Patient Reviews

We offer you to read reviews of people who used Cerepro:

Alla. I had hypertensive crises very often. Nothing helped. I was very afraid of a heart attack, then my friend suggested putting a dropper with this medicine. After reading reviews on the Internet, I decided. A miracle happened, the pressure was normalized, memory improved, but I forgot about dizziness altogether. A wonderful drug.
Zinaida. Acute cerebrovascular accident (cerebrovascular accident) in the husband affected the violation of coordination of movements, which was expressed in shakiness when walking and dizzy. To improve cerebral circulation, Cerepro was prescribed an analog of Gliatilin, after which he improved general condition and coordination, the gait became clearer and went dizzy. He began to stand more confidently and walk. We took 6 months, did not cause any side effects. In the recovery of a person after a stroke and improving blood circulation, the drug helped.
Olga. A couple of months ago, the doctor prescribed medications for recovery after CCT, more precisely to eliminate the consequences after her, namely it became diffused and inattentive + headaches were added, when I start to think actively. I chose between the two drugs Gliatilin and Cerepro in what the difference did not understand, but at Cerepro's price much more profitable, especially if you take into account the duration of the course at 4 months, so naturally bought Cerepro. Took strictly as recommended by a doctor, 2 tablets in the morning and 1 in the evening, now reduced the dosage - 1 tablet 2 times a day. The result became noticeable after a month of application. At work, it became not so tired of stress and better to think, became more concentrated and better remember the tasks that I had to write down earlier. I think that by the end of the course my health will finally recover.
