Ginkgo biloba and Ginkgo biloba dispersible tablets are mainly composed of ginkgo biloba extracts such as total flavonol glycosides and terpene lactones, and total brassinol glycosides have the effect of anti-peroxidative damage, scavenging of oxygen radicals, anti-inflammation, protection of endothelial function, inhibition of lipid deposition, anti-platelet aggregation, anti-coagulant, and anti-thrombotic. Terpene lactones have the effects of dilating coronary arteries, increasing coronary perfusion, protecting cardiomyocytes, improving myocardial energy metabolism, reducing blood viscosity, lowering blood pressure, improving cerebral circulation, and protecting against cerebral injury. Clinically Ginkgo biloba extract can be used for stroke, dementia, memory loss, tinnitus, hearing loss, diabetic retinopathy and neurological disorders, chronic glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, intermittent claudication, arterial occlusive disease, paralysis of the hands and feet cold, and other cerebral, peripheral blood circulation disorders of auxiliary treatment.

Compared with ordinary tablets, dispersible tablets can be disintegrated and dissolved rapidly, which can accelerate the absorption speed and improve the bioavailability. The third is to improve the efficacy, dispersible tablets can speed up the absorption, improve the bioavailability and enhance the efficacy. Therefore, theoretically speaking, compared with ginkgo biloba tablets, ginkgo biloba dispersible tablets have better efficacy.
