目前虽然目前对於造成阿兹海默症的原因还不清楚，所以目前没有药物能够阻止阿兹海默症的发生，只能延缓疾病的进展。因為脑内的乙醯胆硷﹝Acetylcholine﹞被认為与阿兹海默症的智能减退有关，所以此类药物是一种选择性的假性─不可逆性﹝Pseudo irreversible enzyme inhibition﹞乙醯胆硷酵素抑制剂﹝Acetylcholinesterase inhibitor﹞，它主要是模拟乙醯胆硷成為乙醯胆硷酵素a适当的受质，进而阻止乙醯胆硷进行水解反应。它同时也会与丙醯胆硷酵素结合，也有助於乙醯胆硷的存留，使的乙醯胆硷的量减少速度变慢。它的疗效与剂量有关，剂量愈高，效果愈好。但每个人的使用剂量，与病患对药物的副作用耐受性有关。因為它的疗效取决於剩存的、还具有功能的脑内乙醯胆硷神经细胞的数量，所以如果阿兹海默症的病患属於轻度到中度的病患，在治疗后，智能会有改善或减缓恶化的速度。如果已到重度病期，因為神经细胞数量愈来愈少，治疗效果也会逐渐消失。
此药物在服用后，血中的半衰期约為两小时，但它的作用其可以维持十个小时左右。而且它在人体中的代谢不经过肝臟的细胞色素P-450异酵素，而是主要由乙醯胆硷酵素水解成代谢物，百分之九十以上是由肾臟排出。所以此药物与它种经由肝臟的细胞色素P-450异酵素代谢的药物没有药物交互作用。
Rivastigmine Tartrate之副作用
此药物没有药物的肝臟毒性，但有一些病患在服用后会有噁心、呕吐等肠胃到不适、体重减轻等现象。所以為了避免此些副作用，一般建议与食物一起服用。
Exelon
(rivastigmine tartrate) Capsules and Oral Solution
DRUG DESCRIPTION
Exelon (rivastigmine tartrate) is a reversible cholinesterase
inhibitor and is known chemically as
(S)-N-Ethyl-N-methyl-3-[1-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-phenyl
carbamate hydrogen-(2R,3R)-tartrate. Rivastigmine tartrate is commonly referred to in the pharmacological literature as SDZ ENA 713 or ENA 713. It has an empirical formula of
C14H22N2O2?C4H6O6 (hydrogen tartrate salt - hta salt) and a molecular weight of 400.43 (hta salt). Rivastigmine tartrate is a white to off-white, fine crystalline powder that is very soluble in water, soluble in ethanol and acetonitrile, slightly soluble in n-octanol and very slightly soluble in ethyl acetate. The distribution coefficient at 37°C in n- octanol/phosphate buffer solution pH 7 is 3.0.
Exelon Capsules contain rivastigmine tartrate, equivalent to 1.5, 3, 4.5 and 6 mg of rivastigmine base for oral administration. Inactive ingredients are hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, and silicon dioxide. Each hard-gelatin capsule contains gelatin, titanium dioxide and red and/or yellow iron
oxides.
Exelon Oral Solution is supplied as a solution containing rivastigmine tartrate, equivalent to 2 mg/mL of rivastigmine base for oral administration. Inactive ingredients are citric acid, D&C yellow #10, purified water, sodium benzoate and sodium citrate.
-------------------------------------------------------
INDICATIONS
Exelon(rivastigmine tartrate) is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
Exelon? (rivastigmine tartrate) is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate dementia associated with Parkinson's disease.
The dementia of Parkinson's disease is purportedly characterized by impairments in executive function, memory retrieval, and attention, in patients with an established
diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.
The diagnosis of the dementia of Parkinson's disease, however, can reliably be made
in patients in whom a progressive dementia syndrome occurs(without the necessity to document the specific deficits described above) at least 2 years after a diagnosis of
Parkinson's disease has been made, and in whom other causes of dementia have been ruled out (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, Clinical Trial Data).
-------------------------------------------------------
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Dementia of the Alzheimer's type
The dosage of Exelon(rivastigmine tartrate) shown to be effective in controlled clinical trials in Alzheimer's Disease is 6-12 mg/day, given as twice-a-day dosing (daily doses of 3 to 6 mg BID). There is evidence from the clinical trials that doses at the higher end of this range may be more beneficial.
The starting dose of Exelon is 1.5 mg twice a day (BID).
If this dose is well tolerated, after a minimum of 2 weeks of treatment, the dose may be increased to 3 mg BID. Subsequent increases to 4.5 mg BID and 6 mg BID should be attempted after a minimum of 2 weeks at the previous dose.
If adverse effects(e.g., nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, loss of appetite)cause intolerance during treatment, the patient should be instructed to discontinue treatment for several doses and then restart at the same or next lower dose level.
If treatment is interrupted for longer than several days, treatment should be reinitiated with the lowest daily dose and titrated as described above (see WARNINGS). The maximum dose is 6 mg BID (12 mg/day).
Dementia associated with Parkinson's Disease
The dosage of Exelon? shown to be effective in the single controlled clinical trial conducted in dementia associated with Parkinson's Disease is 3 to 12 mg/day, given as
twice-a-day dosing (daily doses of 1.5 to 6 mg BID). In that medical condition, the starting dose of Exelon? is 1.5 mg BID; subsequently, the dose may be increased to 3 mg BID and further to 4.5 mg BID and 6 mg BID, based on tolerability, with a minimum of 4 weeks at each dose.
Exelon should be taken with meals in divided doses in the morning and evening.
Recommendations for Administration: Caregivers should be instructed in the correct procedure for administering Exelon Oral Solution. In addition, they should be directed to the Instruction Sheet (included with the product) describing how the solution is to be administered. Caregivers should direct questions about the administration of the solution to either their physician or pharmacist (see PRECAUTIONS: Information for Patients and Caregivers).
Patients should be instructed to remove the oral dosing syringe provided in its protective case, and using the provided syringe, withdraw the prescribed amount of Exelon Oral Solution from the container. Each dose of Exelon Oral Solution may be swallowed directly from the syringe or first mixed with a small glass of water, cold fruit juice or soda.
Patients should be instructed to stir and drink the mixture.
Exelon Oral Solution and Exelon Capsules may be interchanged at equal doses.

SIDE EFFECTS
Dementia of the Alzheimer's type
Adverse Events Leading to Discontinuation
The rate of discontinuation due to adverse events in controlled clinical trials of Exelon? (rivastigmine tartrate)was 15% for patients receiving 6-12 mg/day compared to 5% for patients on placebo during forced weekly dose titration.
While on a maintenance dose, the rates were 6% for patients on Exelon compared to 4% for those on placebo.
Most Frequent Adverse Clinical Events Seen in Association with the Use of Exelon
The most common adverse events, defined as those occurring at a frequency of at least 5% and twice the placebo rate, are largely predicted by Exelon's cholinergic effects. These
include nausea, vomiting, anorexia, dyspepsia, and asthenia.
Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions
Exelon use is associated with significant nausea, vomiting, and weight loss (see WARNINGS).
Adverse Events Reported in Controlled Trials
Table 2 lists treatment-emergent signs and symptoms that were reported in at least 2% of patients in placebo-controlled trials and for which the rate of occurrence was greater for patients treated with Exelon doses of 6-12 mg/day than for those treated with placebo.
The prescriber should be aware that these figures cannot be used to predict the frequency of adverse events in the course of usual medical practice when patient characteristics and other factors may differ from those prevailing during clinical studies.
Similarly, the cited frequencies cannot be directly compared with figures obtained
from other clinical investigations involving different treatments, uses, or investigators.
An inspection of these frequencies, however, does provide the prescriber with one basis by which to estimate the relative contribution of drug and non-drug factors to the adverse event incidences in the population studied.
In general, adverse reactions were less frequent later in the course of treatment.
No systematic effect of race or age could be determined from the incidence of adverse events in the controlled studies. than men.Other adverse events observed at a rate of 2% or more on Exelon 6-12 mg/day but at a greater or equal rate on placebo were chest pain, peripheral edema, vertigo, back pain, arthralgia, pain, bone fracture, agitation, nervousness, delusion, paranoid reaction, upper respiratory tract infection, infection (general), coughing, pharyngitis, bronchitis, rash (general), urinary incontinence.
Dementia Associated with Parkinson's disease
Adverse Events leading to discontinuation
The rate of discontinuation due to adverse events in the single controlled trial of Exelon? (rivastigmine tartrate) was 18.2% for patients receiving 3-12 mg/day compared to 11.2% for patients on placebo during the 24 week study.
The most frequent adverse events that led to discontinuation from this study, defined as those occurring in at least 1% of patients receiving Exelon and more frequent than those
receiving placebo, were nausea (3.6% Exelon vs. 0.6% placebo), vomiting (1.9% Exelon vs 0.6% placebo), and tremor (1.7% Exelon vs. 0.0% placebo).
Most Frequent Adverse Clinical Events Seen in Association with the Use of ExelonThe most common adverse events, defined as those occurring at a frequency of at least 5% and twice the placebo rate, are largely predicted by Exelon's cholinergic effects. These
include nausea, vomiting, tremor, anorexia, and dizziness.
Adverse Events Reported in Controlled Trials

-------------------------------------------------------
DRUG INTERACTIONS
Drug-Drug Interactions
Effect of Exelon on the Metabolism of Other Drugs: Rivastigmine is primarily metabolized through hydrolysis by esterases. Minimal metabolism occurs via the major cytochrome P450 isoenzymes. Based on in vitro studies, no pharmacokinetic drug interactions with drugs metabolized by the following isoenzyme systems are expected: CYP1A2, CYP2D6, CYP3A4/5,
CYP2E1, CYP2C9, CYP2C8, or CYP2C19.
No pharmacokinetic interaction was observed between rivastigmine and digoxin, warfarin, diazepam, or fluoxetine in studies in healthy volunteers. The elevation of prothrombin
time induced by warfarin is not affected by administration of Exelon.
Effect of Other Drugs on the Metabolism of Exelon: Drugs that induce or inhibit CYP450 metabolism are not expected to alter the metabolism of rivastigmine. Single dose pharmacokinetic studies demonstrated that the metabolism of rivastigmine is not significantly affected by concurrent administration of digoxin, warfarin, diazepam, or fluoxetine.
Population PK analysis with a database of 625 patients showed that the pharmacokinetics of rivastigmine were not influenced by commonly prescribed medications such as antacids (n=77), antihypertensives (n=72), β-blockers (n=42), calcium channel blockers (n=75), antidiabetics (n=21), nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (n=79), estrogens (n=70), salicylate analgesics (n=177), antianginals (n=35), and antihistamines (n=15).
Use with Anticholinergics: Because of their mechanism of action, cholinesterase inhibitors have the potential to interfere with the activity of anticholinergic medications.
Use with Cholinomimetics and Other Cholinesterase Inhibitors:A synergistic effect may be expected when cholinesterase inhibitors are given concurrently with succinylcholine,
similar neuromuscular blocking agents or cholinergic agonists such as bethanechol.
-------------------------------------------------------
ARNINGS
Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions
Exelon(rivastigmine tartrate) use is associated with significant gastrointestinal adverse reactions, including nausea and vomiting, anorexia, and weight loss.
For this reason, patients should always be started at a dose of 1.5 mg BID and titrated to their maintenance dose. If treatment is interrupted for longer than several days, treatment should be reinitiated with the lowest daily dose (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION) to reduce the possibility of severe vomiting and its potentially serious sequelae (e.g., there has been one post-marketing report of severe vomiting with esophageal rupture following inappropriate reinitiation of treatment with a 4.5-mg dose after 8 weeks of treatment interruption).
Nausea and Vomiting: In the controlled clinical trials, 47% of the patients treated with an Exelon dose in the therapeutic range of 6-12 mg/day (n=1189) developed nausea (compared with 12% in placebo). A total of 31% of Exelon-treated patients developed at least one episode of vomiting (compared with 6% for placebo).
The rate of vomiting was higher during the titration phase (24% vs. 3% for placebo) than in the maintenance phase (14% vs. 3% for placebo). The rates were higher in women than men. Five percent of patients discontinued for vomiting, compared to less than 1% for
patients on placebo. Vomiting was severe in 2% of Exelon-treated patients and was rated as mild or moderate each in 14% of patients. The rate of nausea was higher during the
titration phase (43% vs. 9% for placebo) than in the maintenance phase (17% vs. 4% for placebo).
Weight Loss: In the controlled trials, approximately 26% of women on high doses of Exelon (greater than 9 mg/day) had weight loss equal to or greater than 7% of their baseline weight compared to 6% in the placebo-treated patients. About 18% of the males in the high-dose group experienced a similar degree of weight loss compared to 4% in placebo-treated patients. It is not clear how much of the weight loss was associated with anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and the diarrhea associated with the drug.
Anorexia: In the controlled clinical trials, of the patients treated with an Exelon dose of 6-12 mg/day, 17% developed anorexia compared to 3% of the placebo patients. Neither the time course or the severity of the anorexia is known.
Peptic Ulcers/Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Because of their pharmacological action, cholinesterase inhibitors may be expected to increase gastric acid secretion due to increased cholinergic activity. Therefore, patients should be monitored closely for symptoms of active or occult gastrointestinal bleeding, especially those at increased risk for developing ulcers, e.g., those with a history of ulcer disease or those receiving concurrent nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Clinical studies of Exelon have shown no significant increase, relative to placebo, in the incidence of either peptic ulcer disease or gastrointestinal bleeding.
Anesthesia
Exelon as a cholinesterase inhibitor, is likely to exaggerate succinylcholine- type muscle relaxation during anesthesia.
Cardiovascular Conditions
Drugs that increase cholinergic activity may have vagotonic effects on heart rate (e.g., bradycardia). The potential for this action may be particularly important to patients with "sick sinus syndrome" or other supraventricular cardiac conduction conditions. In clinical trials, Exelon was not associated with any increased incidence of cardiovascular adverse events, heart rate or blood pressure changes, or ECG abnormalities. Syncopal episodes have been reported in 3% of patients receiving 6-12 mg/day of Exelon, compared to 2% of placebo patients.
Genitourinary
Although this was not observed in clinical trials of Exelon, drugs that increase cholinergic activity may cause urinary obstruction.
Neurological Conditions
Seizures: Drugs that increase cholinergic activity are believed to have some potential for causing seizures. However, seizure activity also may be a manifestation of Alzheimer's Disease.
Pulmonary Conditions
Like other drugs that increase cholinergic activity, Exelon should be used with care in patients with a history of asthma or obstructive pulmonary disease.
------------------------------------------------------
PRECAUTIONS
Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of FertilityIn carcinogenicity studies conducted at dose levels up to 1.1 mg- base/kg/day in rats and 1.6 mg-base/kg/day in mice, rivastigmine was not carcinogenic. These dose levels are approximately 0.9 times and 0.7 times the maximum recommended human daily dose of 12 mg/day on a mg/m2basis.
Rivastigmine was clastogenic in two in vitro assays in the presence, but not the absence, of metabolic activation.
It caused structural chromosomal aberrations in V79 Chinese hamster lung cells and both structural and numerical(polyploidy) chromosomal aberrations in human peripheral blood
lymphocytes.
Rivastigmine was not genotoxic in three in vitro assays: the Ames test, the unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) test in rat hepatocytes (a test for induction of DNA repair synthesis), and the HGPRT test in V79 Chinese hamster cells.
Rivastigmine was not clastogenic in the in vivo mouse micronucleus test.
Rivastigmine had no effect on fertility or reproductive performance in the rat at dose levels up to 1.1mg-base/kg/day. This dose is approximately 0.9 times the maximum recommended human daily dose of 12 mg/day on a mg/m2 basis.
Pregnancy
Pregnancy Category B: Reproduction studies conducted in pregnant rats at doses up to 2.3 mg-base/kg/day (approximately 2 times the maximum recommended human dose on a mg/m2 basis)and in pregnant rabbits at doses up to 2.3 mg-base/kg/day(approximately 4 times the maximum recommended human dose on a mg/m2 basis) revealed no evidence of teratogenicity.
Studies in rats showed slightly decreased fetal/pup weights, usually at doses causing some maternal toxicity; decreased weights were seen at doses which were several fold lower than the maximum recommended human dose on a mg/m2 basis.
There are no adequate or well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, Exelon should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Nursing Mothers
It is not known whether rivastigmine is excreted in human breast milk. Exelon has no indication for use in nursing mothers.
Pediatric Use
There are no adequate and well-controlled trials documenting the safety and efficacy of Exelon in any illness occurring in children.
-------------------------------------------------------
OVERDOSE
Because strategies for the management of overdose are continually evolving, it is advisable to contact a Poison Control Center to determine the latest recommendations for the management of an overdose of any drug.
As Exelon? (rivastigmine tartrate) has a short plasma half-life of about one hour and a moderate duration of acetylcholinesterase inhibition of 8-10 hours, it is recommended that in cases of asymptomatic overdoses, no further dose of Exelon should be administered for the next 24 hours.
As in any case of overdose, general supportive measures should be utilized. Overdosage with cholinesterase inhibitors can result in cholinergic crisis characterized by severe nausea, vomiting, salivation, sweating, bradycardia, hypotension, respiratory depression, collapse and convulsions.
Increasing muscle weakness is a possibility and may result in death if respiratory muscles are involved.
Atypical responses in blood pressure and heart rate have been reported with other drugs that increase cholinergic activity when co-administered with quaternary anticholinergics such as glycopyrrolate. Due to the short half-life of Exelon, dialysis (hemodialysis,
peritoneal dialysis, or hemofiltration) would not be clinically indicated in the event of an overdose.
In overdoses accompanied by severe nausea and vomiting, the use of antiemetics should be considered. In a documented case of a 46-mg overdose with Exelon, the patient experienced vomiting, incontinence, hypertension, psychomotor retardation, and loss of consciousness.
The patient fully recovered within 24 hours and conservative management was all that was required for treatment.
-------------------------------------------------------
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Exelon(rivastigmine tartrate) is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to rivastigmine, other carbamate derivatives or other components of the formulation (see
DESCRIPTION).
