Summary

This study tests whether a daily dose of acetyl-leucine (a modified amino acid) can improve balance and reduce uncoordinated movement in people who had a stroke affecting the back part of the brain. Two hundred adults aged 18–80 will receive either the drug or a placebo for three months. The main goal is to see if balance scores improve and if there are any side effects.
