Contents of the pack and other information
1. WHAT REMINYL XL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Reminyl XL contains the active substance 'galantamine' an antidementia
medicine. It
is used in adults to treat the symptoms of mild to moderately severe
Alzheimer's
disease, a type of dementia that alters brain function.
Alzheimer’s disease causes increasing memory loss, confusion and
behavioural
changes which make it increasingly difficult to carry out normal daily
activities.
These effects are thought to be caused by a lack of 'acetylcholine', a
substance
responsible for sending messages between brain cells. Reminyl
increases the amount
of acetylcholine in the brain and treats the signs of the disease.
The capsules are made in a ‘prolonged-release’ form. This means
that they release
the medicine slowly.
2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU TAKE REMINYL XL
DO NOT TAKE REMINYL XL

if you are allergic to galantamine or to any of the other ingredients
of this medicine
(listed in section 6)

if you have severe liver or severe kidney disease
