Product Description
Donep-10 Tablet, manufactured by Alkem Pharma, contains Donepezil Hydrochloride 10mg, a cholinesterase inhibitor. It is prescribed for patients with Alzheimer’s disease-related dementia to improve memory, attention, and the ability to carry out daily tasks.
Donep-10 works by increasing the levels of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in memory and learning. This helps improve communication between nerve cells in the brain, slowing down the worsening of dementia symptoms.
While it does not cure Alzheimer’s, regular use of Donep-10 Tablet improves quality of life and reduces symptom progression.
