Description
Brustan Suspension is used to treat Alzheimer's dementia. Brustan Suspension contains donepezil as the active ingredient. This medicine works by inhibiting the action of the chemical acetylcholineste
rase, which is responsible for breaking down a molecule called acetylcholine in the brain. This raises acetylcholine levels in the brain, which are associated with memory and recollection. This medicine should only be used by adults aged 18 or older. Avoid taking this medicine without consulting your doctor. The dose and duration of this medicine will be decided by your doctor as per your signs and symptoms. It may cause side effects like nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, insomnia, muscle cramps, dizziness, and headache, which often subside with continued use. You should inform all healthcare providers, including surgeons and dentists, that you are taking this medication.
