Vincamine is a monoterpenoid indole alkaloid found in the leaves of Vinca minor (lesser periwinkle), comprising about 25–65% of its indole alkaloids by weight. It can also be synthesized from related alkaloids.^[1]

Uses

Vincamine is sold in Europe as a prescription medicine for the treatment of primary degenerative and vascular dementia.^{[citation needed]} In the United States, it is permitted to be sold as a dietary supplement when labeled for use in adults for six months or less.^[2] Most common preparations are in the sustained release tablet forms.

Chemistry

Synthesis

Tabersonine can be used for semi-synthesis of vincamine.^[3]

Derivatives

Vinpocetine is a synthetic derivative of vincamine used for cerebrovascular diseases and as dietary supplement.^[4] Vincamine derivatives have been also studied as anti addictive^[5] and antidiabetic^[6] agents.

Research

It may have nootropic effects.^[3] It has been investigated as novel anticancer drug.^[7]

Concerns over long-term use have been documented by the US National Toxicology Program.^[8]
