Mebicar is proved to have anxiolytic and nootropic characteristics, it decreases unfavourable side effects caused by other tranquilizers of neuroleptic and benzodiazepine group (emotional despondency, excessive calming effect, muscles weakness), it has antialcoholic effect.
Mebicar has an effect on the structure of limbic-reticular activity, particularly on hypothalamus emotional zone, as well as on all 4 basic neuromediator systems – γ aminobutyric acid (GASS), choline -, serotonin- and adrenergic activity.
The preparation has moderate tranquilizing (anxiolytic) activity, eliminates or weakens anxiety, anxious hypochondria, fear, an internal emotional pressure and irritability. Tranquilizing effect of the preparation is not accompanied by myorelaxation and infringement of coordination of movements, it does not disturb mental or physical activity, therefore Adaptol can be administered not interrupting work or study. The preparation has no direct hypnotic effect, but it increases activity of hypnotics and normalizes duration of the disturbed night dream.
