摘要

The invention relates to the use of flupirtine or its salts for the production of a medicament for the prophylaxis and therapy of disorders which accompany an unphysiologically high cell death rate. Of particular importance here is the treatment of organ disorders with cell-destroying processes, such as myocardial infarct, shock kidney, shock lung, senile macular degeneration or traumas as a result of mechanical, thermal, radiation or toxic influences.
