摘要
Background: Donepezil is licensed for the treatment of mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease (AD) at doses of 5–10 mg/day and has recently been approved in the US for severe AD. Multiple studies have suggested that donepezil 10 mg/day provides additional cognitive and functional benefits over the 5 mg/day dose. Higher doses of donepezil, if safe and well tolerated, might provide further benefits for patients with AD.
