| Disease | THE RESULTS OF RESEARCH CARRIED OUT ON A DRUG WITH MNEMOPSYCHOTONIC ACTION CONSISTING OF MIRTILLINE,PHOSPHORYSERINE, GLUTAMINE AND VITAMIN B12 REPORTED. THE DRUG WAS STUDIED ON A SAMPLE OF 40 SUBJECTS OF SCHOOL AGE, SELECTED ON THE BASIS OF A CRITERION OF ACADEMIC FAILURE ASSOCIATED WITH A NORMAL OR ONLY SLIGHTLY INSUFFICIENT INTELLECTUAL LEVEL AND WITH THE PRESENCE OF PRACTO-GNOSIC DISTURBANCES. THE STUDY WAS CARRIED OUT ACCORDING TO THE DOUBLE BLIND METHOD AND LASTED TWO MONTHS. THE DRUG PROVED EFFECTIVE IN IMPROVING MNEMONIC ABILITY AND ATTENTION, AND IN REDUCING SYMPTOMS SUCH AS APATHY AND INHIBITION, BOTH FACTORS WHICH ARE CAPABLE OF AFFECTING ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE. THE DRUG ALSO SEEMS TO HAVE A POSITIVE EFFECT ON PERCEPTIVE AND VISUO-SPATIAL PROCESSES, FAVOURING LEARNING AND REDUCING VISUAL FATIGUE. IT IS VERY WELL TOLERATED AND DOES NOT PRODUCE UNWANTED SIDE EFFECTS. |
