Citicoline (Cat No.: I020438) is the precursor of lecithin biosynthesis, which can promote the biosynthesis of lecithin. Citicoline promotes the restoration and awakening of brain function. It is suitable for disturbance of consciousness caused by traumatic brain injury and stroke sequelae, and also for disturbance of consciousness caused by acute injury of the central nervous system.
