MEMOPTIC

MEMOPTIC is an oral combination product formulated as a tablet containing citicoline, magnesium, and *Ginkgo biloba* extract. It is primarily utilized as a neuroprotective agent in the field of ophthalmology, specifically as an adjunctive therapy for patients with chronic open-angle glaucoma. The formulation aims to preserve visual function and protect the optic nerve from degeneration, complementing conventional intraocular pressure-lowering treatments. Citicoline (cytidine 5'-diphosphocholine) serves as a precursor for the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, a major component of neuronal membranes, and has demonstrated potential in treating glaucoma, amblyopia, and ischemic optic neuropathies. *Ginkgo biloba* extract provides antioxidant properties and enhances microcirculation, while magnesium acts as a natural antagonist of NMDA receptors to mitigate glutamate-induced excitotoxicity. MEMOPTIC is typically marketed as a dietary supplement or nutraceutical.
