Basic Information On Exelon
This drug belongs to the cholinesterase inhibitors class of medications. It is used to treat people suffering from mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease. This disease occurs due to degeneration of certain nerve cells which manufacture a chemical called as acetylcholine in the brain. This chemical is responsible for the process of memory and learning, reasoning and thinking. Exelon works to improve the functions of the nerve cells in the brain by preventing a breakdown of acetylcholine. It is also used for treating people suffering from mild to moderate dementia caused by Parkinson’s disease. It takes about twelve weeks before this drug starts showing results. However, this differs from individual to individual.
