Donepezil and Memantine
DONEPAZE M  are both medications used to treat Alzheimer's disease.
Donepezil belongs to a class of drugs called cholinesterase inhibitors, which work by increasing the levels of acetylcholine in the brain. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in memory and other cognitive processes. By increasing its levels, donepezil can improve cognitive function in people with Alzheimer's disease.
Memantine, on the other hand, works by blocking the action of a different neurotransmitter called glutamate. Glutamate is involved in the transmission of nerve signals in the brain, and excessive amounts of it can damage neurons. Memantine helps to prevent this damage and can improve cognitive function in people with Alzheimer's disease.
In some cases, DONEPAZE M be used together to treat Alzheimer's disease. DONEPAZE M combination has been shown to be more effective than either medication alone in improving cognitive function and daily living activities. However, the use of these medications should be guided by a healthcare professional, as they can have side effects and interactions with other medications.
