Therapeutic Agents for Alzheimer`s Disease
... Abstract: Currently, a handful of FDA approved drugs are commercially available to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). Among these, Tacrine (Cognex), Donepezil (Aricept), Rivastigmine (Exelon), Galantamine (Reminyl) and Memantine (Nemenda; Forest) are either acetylcholinesterase or N-methyl-D-aspartate ...
