Such a drug has been produced. The staff of the chair of pharmacology of the Kirov Medical Officers College evolved, after thorough investigations, the preparation of phenatin. As to its effect and properties, phenatin is superior to all the existing stimulators of the nervous system. It was developed by Professor Sergey Arbuzov. This preparation, says the Professor, is a condensate of phenamin with nicotinic acid (Vitamin PP). It has a mild stimulating effect and simultaneously reduces the blood pressure. It can be used by people engaged in long and strenuous work and by people suffering from hypertensive disease. The preparation excites metabolism and can therefore successfully be used in obesity and old-age asthenia. Unlike phenamin, phenatin does not lead to the exhaustion of the nervous system, granted that there is no overdosage of the preparation. Our chair has also produced certain derivatives of phenatin which likewise possess valuable qualities. For instance, there is pyridoxiphen, a product of condensation of phenamin and pyridoxine (Vitamin B6). This preparation is necessary in clinical practice for treating some of the diseases of the nervous system. We are persistently looking for even more active stimulators. [...]

Phenatine is much less toxic than phenamine; It is a gentler stimulant of the central nervous system. Unlike phenamlne, the drug has a hypotensive effect (Arbuzov, 1952, 1953, 1960; Makarov, 1958, and others). In this respect it can be prescribed in those cases when phenamine is contraindicated (for example, hypertonic disease, old age, asthenic syndrome, etc.). Phenatine stimulates mental and physical efficiency. Research conducted on man (Arbuzov, 1960) established that phenatine intensifies the excitatory process with brief concentration of the inhibitory process, maintaining the equilibrium of nerve processes at a higher level. The drug can intensify activity not only of the cortex of the large hemispheres, but also the subcortex. An important aspect of the drug is that its use is not accompanied by negative aftereffects; neither have cases of addiction to phenatine been noted. [...]
