Rivastigmine Capsules

At Onco India International, we manufacture and supply high-quality Rivastigmine Capsules, a trusted prescription medication widely used in the management of Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease dementia.

Rivastigmine belongs to the class of cholinesterase inhibitors, designed to improve memory, learning, and overall cognitive function by increasing levels of acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter in the brain.

How Rivastigmine Capsules Work

• Rivastigmine inhibits the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which is responsible for breaking down acetylcholine.

• By slowing this breakdown, acetylcholine levels remain higher in the brain.

• This improves communication between nerve cells, enhancing memory, learning, and daily functioning.

How to Use Rivastigmine Capsules

• Administration: Take orally with food to minimize stomach irritation.

• Dosage: Usually taken twice daily, spaced about 12 hours apart.

• Consistency: Take at the same times each day for best results.

• Swallowing: Swallow whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew.

Available Dosage Strengths

• Rivastigmine 1.5 mg

The exact strength prescribed depends on the patient’s condition, tolerability, and response to treatment.
