title: [Cortexin in the complex treatment of post stroke epilepsy].
abstract: Forty-six patients with post stroke epilepsy were examined. The basic treatment included depakine-chrono in the mean dosage of 750 mg per day, along with vascular drugs, Cortexin was used as an add-on therapy in 29 patients intramuscular in the dosage of 10 mg during 15 days. Other 17 patients received only basic therapy. The addition of cortexin to the complex treatment significantly enhanced clinical effects reflected by positive changes on EEG.
