Vincamine is an active substance isolated from vinca minor (Lilliaceae). Its structure is not related to that of any active substance commonly used in the treatment of cerebral blood flow disturbances.

Brain-ox markedly increases the blood supply to the cerebral tissues (through its selective vasoregulator action on cerebral blood vessels) and the cerebral metabolism (by enhancing oxidative decomposition of glucose and its utilization by brain cells resulting in high general activity).

Brain-ox minimizes hemodynamic resistance of cerebral blood vessels. Brain-ox improves oxygen transportation via brain tissues, thus improving cerebral microcirculation.
