About Exelon Transdermal Patch 5
Exelon Transdermal Patch 5 is used to treat mild to moderate dementia caused by Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. Alzheimer's disease is a neurological disorder which causes dementia (memory loss) and slowly destroys the ability to think, learn, communicate, and handle daily activities. Parkinson's disease is a central nervous system disorder that affects movement, leading to shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with walking, balance, and coordination.
Exelon Transdermal Patch 5 contains 'Rivastigmine' that belongs to the class of 'Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors'. Rivastigmine increases the cholinergic effects, allowing the nerve cells to communicate. It restores the balance of neurotransmitters and improves mental function, such as memory and thinking. Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that transmit the message from one nerve cell to another nerve cell, muscle cell, or gland cell.
