Pharmacological effect
Hypoxen belongs to the class of antihypoxants and antioxidants, which reduce oxygen consumption and increase the body's performance in extreme situations. The drug has an anti-hypoxic effect by increasing the efficiency of tissue respiration under hypoxia, especially in organs with a high metabolic rate (brain, heart muscle, liver). Hypoxen reduces oxygen consumption during significant physical exertion, improves tissue respiration, and reduces mental and physical fatigue, the successful implementation of time-consuming physical operations.
Pharmacokinetics
Data on the pharmacokinetics of the drug Hypoxen not provided.
Indications
Indications for the appointment of Hypoxen are: excessive mental and physical exertion, camera activity, other intense loads, supplemented by severe fatigue and chronic fatigue; the need to increase efficiency during extreme or unfavorable situations, which are usually accompanied by a lack of oxygen, for example, when you are at high mountains, in polar conditions, underwater work, and so on; complex therapy of serious injuries, significant blood loss, large-scale surgical interventions, respiratory diseases such as bronchial asthma, obstructive bronchitis or pneumonia; combined treatment and prevention of stable angina, chronic heart failure, arterial hypertension.

Dosage and administration
Hypoxen recommends that adult capsules be taken orally, before, or simultaneously with food, with a squeezed liquid. In this case, the average single dosage is 2-4 capsules.The maximum daily dose may not exceed 12 capsules. It should be noted that the daily dose is calculated taking into account body weight. In each case, the doctor prescribes a certain dosage, taking into account the indications and characteristics of the patient. For example, in order to get rid of hypoxia, which can develop in extreme conditions: during hypoventilation of the lungs, while in the highlands, playing sports, underwater work, or under conditions of high temperature, a daily dose for half an hour, an hour before the load. With prolonged intense mental activity, severe fatigue, reduction of the recovery period as a result of increased physical exertion, surgical interventions, injuries are prescribed at half the average daily dose to 2 single doses for 2-3 weeks. It is possible to repeat the treatment, after a break of 1-2 weeks. Hypoxen for Athletes It has been established that this drug is highly effective when it is necessary to improve tissue respiration. Therefore, it successfully used polar explorers, submariners and climbers. It is noted that Hypoxen does not have a long-lasting effect, and if it is taken continuously, then the effectiveness of the drug is significantly reduced. Discussion on how to use Hypoxen in sports is quite common in various forums. However, according to experts, it is not recommended to take it constantly at workouts, as it can reduce the training effect and cause a habit of the drug. In general, training is designed to allow the body to adapt to stressful situations, and when stress factors are eliminated, the training effect is also reduced. Therefore, it is possible to use it only before responsible competitions, when you need to maximize efficiency and achieve a sporting result.

Overdose
Symptoms: dry mouth, nausea and discomfort in the stomach, in rare cases - respiratory depression. Treatment: gastric lavage, taking activated charcoal, symptomatic therapy.
