Neuroton

**Neuroton** is a brand name associated with several distinct pharmaceutical and medical products. In clinical research, it most frequently refers to **citicoline** (cytidine-5'-diphosphocholine), a neuroprotective intermediate in the biosynthesis of cell membrane phospholipids. It has been evaluated in randomized clinical trials for its ability to improve retinal function and visual pathway responses in patients with glaucoma and amblyopia. Another widely marketed version of Neuroton (notably by Amoun Pharmaceutical Company) is a **Vitamin B complex** containing Vitamins B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cyanocobalamin), which is indicated for the treatment of peripheral neuropathies and nutritional deficiencies. Historically, the name was also applied to **guaifenesin** (guaiacol glyceryl ether) in research regarding its effects on muscle relaxation and animal behavior. Furthermore, the name is used for the **Neuroton-626**, an apparatus designed for the electrodiagnosis of nerve trunk diseases.
