A member asked:
The doctor prescribed memantine hydrochloride 10+5mg for 7 days and then gradually increased, is that right? or do we get it wrong?

Memantine is usually started at 5 mg daily with dosage slowly titrated up to target dose of 10 mg twice a day if tolerated OK. Always a good idea to confirm with pharmacist and/or prescribing doc.

Memantine is usually well tolerated and target dose is 10 mg twice daily. Some doctors start slowly and titer upwards. Many geriatricians and neurologists go to full dose immediately. If no adverse effects, would not see any issues.
