The clinico-pharmacological and pharmacokinetic investigation of mexidole administered in patients with organic CNS damage showed for the first time that there is a correlation between intensity of the drug--glucurone conjugation and the parameters of psychopathological symptom expression and the individual patient state estimation before treatment and upon a single administration or a course of mexidole therapy. This correlation allows the clinico-pharmacological effects and the therapeutic efficacy of mexidole to be predicted based on the drug metabolism index.
