Product Description

Donep-5 Tablet, manufactured by Alkem Pharma, contains Donepezil Hydrochloride 5mg, a cholinesterase inhibitor. It is prescribed for patients with mild Alzheimer’s disease-related dementia.

Donep-5 works by increasing the levels of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for memory and learning, improving communication between nerve cells. This helps manage symptoms such as memory loss, confusion, and difficulty performing daily activities.
