What users say

Verbatim quotes, shortened only — each links to the original discussion.

“Very expensive drug and weak effect. The positive effect is definitely there, but it is not worth the money”

“Actovegin is just Russian Solcoseryl. Which works and has a known safety profile - also not produced in Russia. Though Solco is pretty limited in uses - most wound healing.”
