HOW MEMANTINE STADA 10 MG/ML DRANK WORKS
Memantine STADA 10 mg/ml drank belongs to a group of medicines known
as anti-dementia
medicines.
Memory loss in Alzheimer’s disease is due to a disturbance of
message signals in the brain.
The brain contains so-called N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-receptors
that are involved in
transmitting nerve signals important in learning and memory. Memantine
STADA 10 mg/ml
drank belongs to a group of medicines called NMDA-receptor
antagonists. Memantine
STADA 10 mg/ml drank acts on these NMDA-receptors improving the
transmission of nerve
signals and the memory.
