[Efficacy and safety studies review of Teraligen usage in psychiatric practice and general medicine]

Determination of the dose-dependent effect of the Teraligen for various nosological forms of disorders in psychiatric practice and general medicine.

Analysis of 98 publications included in the database of the RISC (2012-2021) with the identification of disorders (according to ICD-10) in which Teraligen is prescribed or can be used (in adults and children from the age of 7).

Despite a rather long and successful history use, research work on the study drug Teraligen continues. Currently Teraligen is widely and actively used by doctors of various specialties in the psychiatry, neurology, pediatrics, gerontology, internal medicine, gastroenterology, gynecology, cardiology, endocrinology and other disciplines. The drug is presented in several release forms: Teraligen 5 mg tablets; Teraligen retard 20 mg; Teraligen solution for intravenous injections. Teraligen is characterized by the following psychotropic effects: anxiolytic (++ - a distinct, moderately pronounced effect); sedative (++); hypnotic (++); antidepressant (+ - the effect is distinct, but expressed slightly and does not determine the drug main prescriptions spectrum); antipsychotic (± - the effect is weakly expressed and clinically insignificant when using conventional (5-80 mg/day) drug dosages).

According to the authors, the main effect of the «small» neuroleptic/antipsychotic Alimemazine (Teraligen ) is primarily aimed at pathological anxiety and affective instability. Its use is possible in various age groups, as it has a fairly high safety. In addition, like other «small» neuroleptics/antipsychotics with a predominantly sedative effect, the drug can be used to correct neuroleptics-prolongs side effects with dominant manifestations in the form of anxiety, irritability and insomnia.
