Is it ok if i take donepezil 5mg to increase memory and attention for a short time(during exams etc.)?

Donepezil: While studies are underway for this indication, there is currently no fda approved use of donepezil as an aid for exam preparation.Inpatients treated for alzheimer's, it often takes weeks before any beneficial effects are noticeable. One would have to start taking the drug well in advance of the start of exam week i would suggest speaking with a neurologist. Donepezil can have side effects.
