Cordiamine stimulates the central nervous system and especially the centers of the medulla oblongata — respiratory and vasomotor.

Under the influence of Cordiamine, breathing becomes faster and deeper (especially if it is depressed), blood pressure increases if there is an initial hypotension.

The drug does not have a direct stimulating effect on the heart and vasoconstrictor effect. In large (toxic) doses, Cordiamine can cause clonic seizures.
