Can Vicebrol cause dizziness, tingling and numbness in the limbs and face, anxiety, palpitations, and feelings of derealization?

Thank you for sharing your case. Yes, Vicebrol (vinpocetine) may cause dizziness, tingling, and numbness in the extremities and face as nervous system side effects, which have been reported uncommonly. Palpitations are associated with arrhythmias (e.g. tachycardia) and changes in blood pressure, which occur less frequently, and anxiety can result from motor hyperactivity or anxiety.

The feeling of derealization is not directly mentioned in the leaflet, but may be associated with dizziness or sleep disturbances – if symptoms persist, please consult your doctor immediately to rule out more serious causes.

I encourage you to provide your doctor with information about the symptoms you experience and any side effects associated with the medication you are taking. Such notifications help to better supervise commercially available medicines. You can read more about reporting side effects in our article:
