Medicine Description dementexa 10mg
Dementexa 10 mg tablets is a medication that primarily acts as an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist. By modulating glutamate activity in the brain, it helps prevent excessive stimulation of neurons, which can lead to neurotoxicity and cognitive decline. This action aids in stabilizing the activity of neurotransmitters, contributing to a reduction in symptoms associated with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. The modulation of glutamate helps maintain a balance in neuronal signaling, thereby allowing for improved overall cognitive function over time.
