Hello,
As per my clinical experience, the Storcit contains Citicoline used for variety of clinical conditions related to stroke issues. The Citicoline is equivalent to naturally occurring neurotransmitter substance Phosphatidylcholine which improves brain function. There are various side effects of the drug as:
- GI upset
- Nausea
- Bloating
- Diarrhea
- Headache
- Dizziness
- Blurred vision
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
