Alzil m 5 ( donepezil 5mg + memantine 5mg) does have any side effect? can a 75 yrs old who is dignosed with moderate diffuse brain atrophy take this?

Yes-at bedtime: Each drug has separate mechanism of action- complement each other . Add gingko biloba as an herb 120mg. Twice daily as well. Side effects of the drugs are many -just read thru them. Ok as long as you have good urine flow.

Meant for AD: Might give minimal benefit. Not a cure in any way!
