Tamara. One year ago I took the doctor-audiologist on recommendation.. the Europe became easier. Now again it makes a noise in my head, sometimes it's dizzy, my head hurts. I will buy tanakan and drink for three months.
Ksenia. A young son was found to have elevated intracranial pressure, for which the neurologist prescribed the drug Tanakan. It contains plant components that have a positive effect on the nervous system. I gave the child a pill - after two weeks I notice that the amount of hysterics has decreased, and attention has gone up. There were no pills.
Olga. In the last year of the university there were problems with memory, then I tried to cope with them with caffeine, ginseng and other stimulants, but after a couple of months the effect disappeared. The doctor recommended Tanakan, which showed a good result, but due to the fact that it contains lactose, it was necessary to replace the drug with an analog - Ginkoum.
