NeuroAiD
NeuroAiD
NeuroAiD (pronounced: neuro-aid) is a pharmaceutical product used in the treatment and rehabilitation of stroke victims and individuals with neurological disorders.
Etymology
The term "NeuroAiD" is a combination of the words "neuro", referring to the nervous system, and "aid", indicating assistance or support.
Usage
NeuroAiD is often used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for stroke victims, which may also include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. It is believed to promote neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life, thereby aiding in the recovery of lost functions due to a stroke or other neurological disorders.
