Properties of drug preparation

The ethyl ester of alpha-bromoisovaleric acid has spasmolytic, reflex and sedative effects. Such properties of the drug are caused by stimulation of the nasopharynx and oropharynx receptors, a decrease in the threshold of excitability in specific sections of the NS, as well as inhibition of vasomotor centers and activation of deceleration processes in the subcortex and cerebral cortex.

Phenobarbital eliminates the excitation of the reticular formation of the brain. This contributes to soothing and hypnotic effects. Also, this substance suppresses the activity of the vasomotor centers, lowers blood pressure and prevents vessel spasms.

As for validol, it sedatively affects the NS, suppresses the peristalsis of the digestive system, eliminates flatulence and has a moderate spasmolytic and vasodilating effect.
