Free radical scavenging activity of
donepezil was determined by DPPH assay method as per Yohozowa et al.
By analyzing HRV and electrocardiogram parameters, we determined whether
donepezil is associated with an increased risk of bradycardia and ventricular arrhythmia.
Donepezil, as a strong hydrophobic drug, can be loaded into the hydrophobic center of CHP NPs to form a
donepezil nanopreparation (DZP-CHP).
Donepezil has been shown to attenuate scopolamine-induced reduction of the P300 amplitude, which is consistent with the modulation of P300 by
donepezil in AD Alzheimer's patients [49].
In addition, short-term improvement in odour identification from baseline to eight weeks tended to predict longer-term cognitive improvement with
donepezil treatment over one year.
Indian pharmaceutical firm Zydus Cadila (NSE: CADILAHC) has been granted final approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market
Donepezil Hydrochloride tablets in the strength of 23 mg, the company said on Friday.
We have purified hCAI and hCAII from human erythrocytes and analyzed the in vitro effects of these drugs memantine (1) and
donepezil (2) on these isoenzymes.
Among 44 patients, 15 (34%) were on memantine and
donepezil combination therapy and they reported to have some side effects such as insomnia, hallucinations, urinary incontinence and fatigue (Table 2).
Acetylcholinesterase from electric eel ([greater than or equal to]1000 units/mg protein), acetylcholine chloride (AChCl), acetylthiocholine chloride (ATChCl), 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB),
donepezil hydrochloride monohydrate, galanthamine hydrobromide, tetraisopropyl pyrophosphoramide (iso-OMPA), phosphate buffer saline (PBS) pH 7.4, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and isopropyl alcohol were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St.
Donepezil is a reversible inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), the break-down enzyme of acetylcholine (ACh) [15].
Patients with moderate to severe AD receiving stable doses of both
donepezil and memantine experienced limited cognitive improvement [10].
Donepezil is a specific and reversible inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (Ach), which increases the bioavailability of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter present in the peripheral central nervous system.
