Galamer 8 Tablet 10's

Galamer 8 Tablet 10's belongs to a group of medicines called 'anti-dementia agents' used to treat mild to moderate dementia caused by Alzheimer's disease. Alzheimer's disease is a neurological disorder, which causes dementia (memory loss), and slowly destroys the ability to think, learn, communicate, and handling daily activities. Dementia is a condition associated with impairment in memory, communication and thinking.

Galamer 8 Tablet 10's contains 'Galantamine' that belongs to the class of 'Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors'. Galantamine blocks the action of the enzyme cholinesterase, an enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter or a chemical messenger that transmits the message from one nerve cell to another nerve cell, muscle cell, or gland cell. Galamer 8 Tablet 10's thus increases acetylcholine levels allowing the nerve cells to communicate. It restores the balance of neurotransmitters and thus improves mental function, such as memory and thinking.

Galamer 8 Tablet 10's treats mild to moderate dementia caused by Alzheimer's disease. It contains 'Galantamine', an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. Galantamine increases acetylcholine (a brain chemical) levels in the central nervous system by blocking the action of the cholinesterase enzyme. This process helps in transmitting nerve signals that play an essential role in memory. Galamer 8 Tablet 10's is not a cure for Alzheimer's disease but improves memory, thinking awareness and the ability to perform daily functions.
