Vincamine
Vincamine is an indole alkaloid derived from the periwinkle plant Vinca minor that is a precursor to the synthetic derivative vinpocetine. It acts as a vasodilator and cerebral blood flow enhancer by inhibiting phosphodiesterase, reducing platelet aggregation, and relaxing vascular smooth muscle, thereby increasing oxygen and glucose delivery to brain tissue. It is used as a nootropic and circulatory supplement, primarily in Europe, for the treatment of cerebrovascular disorders, cognitive decline, and tinnitus.
