Abixa Tablet 10 mg contains Memantine Hydrochloride, a medication primarily used for the treatment of moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease. Memantine works by regulating the activity of glutamate, a chemical messenger in the brain involved in learning and memory. By modulating glutamate activity, Abixa helps improve cognitive function, memory, and daily living activities in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. It is not a cure but helps manage symptoms and slows the progression of cognitive decline.

Indications

Abixa Tablet 10 mg is indicated for:

• Treatment of moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease
• Improvement of cognitive function and memory in affected patients
• Supporting daily functioning and quality of life in patients with Alzheimer’s

It may be used alone or in combination with other therapies, such as cholinesterase inhibitors, under the supervision of a healthcare provider.

Mechanism of Action

Memantine Hydrochloride is an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist.

By regulating glutamate transmission, Memantine helps maintain normal neuronal communication, improving memory, attention, and learning abilities.
