Multiple randomized controlled trials (RCTs), systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and multidisciplinary studies in both hospital and outpatient settings have demonstrated the high efficacy and safety of choline alfoscerate (CA) therapy for patients with mild and moderate cognitive impairment (MCI), amnestic cognitive impairment, predementia cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD), elderly individuals, and first-degree relatives of patients with AD as preventive therapy. The Russian CA drug Cereton is available in several formulations, including solutions for intravenous and intramuscular injection, capsules, and an oral solution, enabling individualized treatment approaches. In hospital settings, injection therapy with Cereton is administered for 10 days, followed by an oral course lasting up to 60 days. The duration and dosage of Cereton oral solution and capsules are determined by patient age and clinical condition. The oral solution is approved for use in children from 6 years of age, and the capsules are approved for use in children from 11 years of age, with treatment courses lasting up to 60 days. Cereton therapy consists of two stages: initial intravenous or intramuscular administration, followed by oral administration of capsules or the oral solution. The drug is generally well-tolerated, with adverse events being infrequent and minor.
