About Arizax Plus Tablet

Arizax Plus Tablet is used to treat Alzheimer's disease (memory loss). Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodisorder that affects the brain. It causes the brain to shrink (atrophy) and brain cells (neurons) to die. 

Arizax Plus Tablet is a combination medication containing Donepezil and Memantine, which treat Alzheimer’s disease. Donepezil is a cholinesterase inhibitor that works by preventing the breakdown of the chemical acetylcholine and improving the function of nerve cells in the brain. Memantine works by lowering the level of the chemical in the brain which is responsible for causing symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Together, both of them balance the levels of chemical messengers in the brain and help transmit nerve signals.

Take Arizax Plus Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Arizax Plus Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending upon your medical condition. Preferably, take it before just bedtime. In some cases, you may experience vomiting, weight loss, loss of appetite, dryness in the mouth, dizziness, nausea, diarrhoea, and headache. Most of these side effects of Arizax Plus Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Arizax Plus Tablet may cause dizziness and sleepiness. So, do not drive a car or operate any machinery that requires mental focus until you know how this medicine affects you.
