About RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S

  • RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S is prescribed for managing mild to moderate dementia associated with Alzheimer’s disease, a condition that progressively impairs memory and cognitive functions. It is also indicated for dementia linked to Parkinson’s disease. While it doesn't offer a cure for these conditions, it can significantly aid in improving memory, alertness, and alleviating other related symptoms. Adhering to your doctor's instructions on how to use RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S is crucial for achieving optimal results. Dosage adjustments may be necessary based on individual patient needs. Generally, a single patch is applied daily, with the application site rotated to minimize potential skin irritation. Consistent and regular use of the patches is important, and it may take up to four weeks before noticeable improvements in symptoms are observed.
  • Common side effects associated with this medication may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, indigestion, abdominal discomfort, headache, fainting spells, dizziness, anxiety, feelings of depression, delirium, agitation, urinary tract infections, urinary incontinence, skin rashes, fever, unintentional weight loss, and reactions at the application site. The occurrence of side effects might be more frequent at the beginning of treatment or following an increase in dosage. These side effects typically diminish as the body adapts to the medicine. If side effects persist or become severe, the patch should be removed, and a healthcare professional should be consulted immediately.
  • Prior to initiating treatment with RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S, it is important to inform your doctor about any pre-existing medical conditions, such as heart problems, stomach ulcers, epilepsy, or asthma. Additionally, it's important to disclose all other medications being taken, as RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S may interact with them. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should seek medical advice from their doctor before using this medicine.
  • A Patient Support Program/Patient Assistance Program is available in India for this medicine, managed by Tata 1mg. Contact your prescribing doctor for details, or call 1800-102-1618 for more information.

Uses of RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S

How RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S Works

  • In Alzheimer's disease, memory loss arises from disruptions in the brain's intricate communication network. Nerve cells struggle to transmit signals effectively, leading to cognitive decline. RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S offers a therapeutic approach by addressing this underlying issue.
  • RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S belongs to a class of medications known as cholinesterase inhibitors.

  • By increasing acetylcholine levels, RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S enhances nerve signal transmission, leading to improvements in memory and cognitive function. This medication helps to restore some of the lost communication pathways in the brain, enabling individuals with Alzheimer's disease to experience enhanced clarity and cognitive performance. Regular and consistent use as directed by a healthcare professional is crucial for optimal results.

Benefits of RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'SArrow

  • <b>Treatment of Dementia Associated with Parkinson's disease</b><br>Dementia in Parkinson’s disease manifests as significant decline in memory and cognitive functions, severely impacting daily activities and overall quality of life. RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S offers a safe and potentially long-term approach to manage these debilitating symptoms. By improving cognitive functions, RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S empowers individuals to maintain a higher degree of independence and engagement in their daily routines, fostering a better quality of life. This medication aims to alleviate the cognitive burden associated with Parkinson's-related dementia, providing a supportive intervention for both patients and their caregivers. Regular use, as directed by a healthcare professional, can contribute to a more stable and functional cognitive state.
  • <b>Alzheimer's disease</b><br>Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by the progressive death of nerve cells in the brain, leading to a reduction in the levels of acetylcholine, a crucial neurotransmitter for nerve cell communication. This deficiency contributes to the hallmark symptoms of dementia, including memory loss, confusion, disorientation, speech and language difficulties, and personality changes. RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S works by increasing the availability of acetylcholine in the brain, thereby enhancing communication between nerve cells. While not a cure, RIVAMER 1.5MG CAPSULE 10'S can temporarily improve cognitive functions such as memory, awareness, and the ability to perform daily tasks. Consistent and proper application of the medication, as prescribed, is crucial for realizing its potential benefits. Remember to apply the patches as directed, rotating the application site with each new patch. Improvement in symptoms may take several weeks, so continued use is important even if immediate effects are not apparent.
