The total action of Cerebrum compositum is directed towards improving cerebral function, including memory, and preventing or improving circulatory disturbances from arteriosclerosis, with consequent reduction of cerebral capacity in both the aged and underdeveloped children showing poor school performance, as well as for stress. In such cases, administration of Hepar compositum, and possibly Testis compositum (males) or Ovarium compositum (females), Populus compositum SR, Hepar compositum (stimulation of hepatic detoxification), Placenta compositum (improvement of peripheral circulation), Rauwolfia compositum (for hypertonia), and Cor compositum (for myocardial weakness and cardiac circulatory disturbances) is recommended.

Preparations such as Tonico-Injeel (physical weakness), Neuro-Injeel (improvement of mental functions), and Lymphomyosot (stimulation of lymphatic drainage) may be interpolated. If there is suspicion of precancerous dermatosis or neoplasm formation, Coenzyme compositum, Ubichinon compositum, Thyreoidea compositum, and possibly Glyoxal compositum (single injection) may be used.

The improvement of cerebral and neural functions achieved with Cerebrum compositum is favourable in a wide variety of organic nervous system diseases, especially in combination with other antihomotoxic therapeutic measures (e.g. Galium-Heel) and for migraine.

The dosage is adjusted according to disease, clinical presentation, and stage of illness. At treatment start: 1 ampoule i.m., s.c., and possibly i.v. every 2 days (3 times weekly); later: generally 1 ampoule i.m. once weekly, alternating with other indicated preparations.
