What is Bemitil (Bemiton)?

Bemethyl, also commonly referred to as Bemitil or Bemiton, is a synthetic adaptogen. It possesses nootropic, regenerative, anti-hypoxic, antioxidant, antimutagenic, and immunomodulatory effects. Bemitil was developed in the 1970s in the Soviet Union and was successfully used during the Afghanistan war, the Chernobyl catastrophe, and the Olympic Games in Moscow.

The main purpose of Bemitil is to increase the physical and mental performance of people exposed to stressful conditions and accelerate the recovery process after physical exertion. That makes it useful for athletes, especially for bodybuilders and runners. What is important is that even healthy individuals can feel the effects of Bemitil.

But sports is not the only off-label use of Bemitil. It also works synergistically with other nootropics potentiating their effects. That is why it is often included in nootropic stacks. According to clinical studies, the combination of Metaprot with standard nootropic therapy is significantly more effective in the treatment of chronic fatigue, than the standard therapy alone.

What are Bemitil’s Benefits and Effects?

Bemitil (or Bemiton) is said to increase the body’s resistance to extreme factors such as physical activity, stress, hypoxia, and hyperthermia. The drug enhances the working capacity. It is known to have a pronounced anti-asthenic effect and it accelerates recovery processes after extreme conditions.

The good thing about Bemitil is that it does not cause psychomotor agitation.

What is the Mechanism of Action of Bemitil?

The chemical structure of Bemitil is similar to that of adenine and guanine — 2 out of 5 nucleobases that form DNA and RNA — which can explain its pharmacological effects.

Bemitil increases the synthesis of RNA and proteins in the skeletal muscle, brain cells, liver, and kidneys, including enzymes and ones related to the immune system. It also stimulates ATP synthesis and gluconeogenesis, which plays an important role in the energy supply during exercise.

Enhanced synthesis of mitochondrial enzymes and structural proteins of the mitochondria increase energy production and maintain a high degree of coupling of oxidation and phosphorylation — the mechanism of turning oxygen into energy in the body.

The anti-hypoxic and anti-ischemic activity of Bemitil maintains a high level of ATP synthesis under oxygen deficiency. The drug enhances the synthesis of antioxidant enzymes. Therefore it has a pronounced antioxidant activity.

What is Bemitil Used for?

From a medical viewpoint, Bemitil has quite a wide field of applications. In clinical practice, this drug is used in the complex treatment of:

• Asthenic conditions (chronic fatigue);
• Traumatic brain injuries;
• Meningitis, encephalitis;
• Cerebrovascular and cognitive disorders.

Bemethyl was added to the Monitoring Program of the World Anti-Doping Agency in 2018. The preparation is still only monitored as its misuse in sports is not proved yet. As of 2022, Bemitil continues to be an allowed substance in sports.
