The effect of hypokinesia on the blood electrolyte balance was studied. In restricted motor activity marked deviations of the type of hypokalemia and hypercalcemia were encountered, which could promote the development of various pathological processes, including disorder of central and regional hemodynamics. GABA and piracetam had no effect on the blood serum electrolyte content in the early periods of hypokinesia. In later periods of hypokinesia both drugs under examination corrected the disorders of blood electrolyte balance induced by prolonged restriction of motor activity.
