Clanobutine acts as a choleretic agent by increasing the secretory activity of exocrine digestive glands, increasing bile secretion and by stimulation of pancreatic enzymes such as pepsin, trypsin, chymotrypsin and amylase. It also acts as a hepatoprotective agent by protecting the liver during digestive disorders. It also acts as a cardio tonic through increasing the protection force and the number of beats per minute and increasing cardiac output and coronary flow.
