Several treatments are available for Alzheimer's disease, aimed at managing symptoms and slowing its progression. These include cholinesterase inhibitors like donepezil, rivastigmine, and galantamine, which enhance communication among nerve cells. Another class of drugs, NMDA receptor antagonists like memantine, regulate glutamate activity in the brain. Additionally, lifestyle modifications, such as cognitive stimulation and regular exercise, are recommended. Emerging therapies like cerebrolysin 10ml, a neuropeptide-based drug, show potential in promoting nerve cell growth and function. Administered typically in 10ml doses, cerebrolysin aims to improve cognitive function and may offer a promising avenue for Alzheimer's treatment. However, more research is needed to fully understand its efficacy.
