Biochem/physiol Actions

Pramiracetam is a potent nootropic agent that is a member of the racetam drug family. Pramiracetam improves cognitive deficits associated with traumatic brain injuries. Also, pramiracetam is a specific inhibitor of prolyl endopeptidase.
Pramiracetam plays an important role in spatial learning and memory in rats. It is considered as a memory enhancing agent and is stronger than piracetam.

The present experiments demonstrate that the absence of any memory-improving action of nootropics in adrenalectomized animals cannot be ascribed to an effect of dosage. Doses of 1, 10, 100, 1000 and 3000 mg/kg p.o. of piracetam, oxiracetam, aniracetam or pramiracetam
