Vinpocetine bruges til at forbedre hukommelsen og øge hjernens stofskifte. Det er også blevet brugt til iskæmi og reperfusionsskade og betragtes som et neurobeskyttende middel. Der er dog få robuste kliniske undersøgelser, der understøtter brugen af vinpocetine ved slagtilfælde, demens eller andre sygdomme i CNS.
