Overview
What is Citicoline Cdpcholine?
CDP-choline is the same molecule as citicoline — cytidine-5'-diphosphocholine. The "CDP-choline" name highlights the chemical structure (cytidine + phospho-phospho + choline); "citicoline" is the international nonproprietary name. Same supplement, same uses.
Key Benefits
Same as citicoline: acetylcholine support, membrane phospholipid synthesis, stroke and vascular cognitive impairment support, mild attentional and processing-speed boost in healthy adults.
Mechanism of Action
Identical to citicoline — hydrolyzed in the gut to cytidine and choline, reassembled centrally to CDP-choline. Supplies choline for acetylcholine and a precursor pool for membrane phospholipid synthesis (Kennedy pathway).
