Uses of Exelon Patch
Exelon Patch is a transdermal medication system containing the active ingredient rivastigmine. It is prescribed mainly for the treatment of mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease and dementia associated with Parkinson’s disease.
The Exelon Patch delivers rivastigmine continuously through the skin, ensuring a stable and controlled dosage. This can help improve cognitive functions, memory, and behavior in individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia related to Parkinson’s disease. By slowing the progression of symptoms, the patch aims to enhance thinking processes and overall quality of life for those affected by these conditions.
The Exelon Patch contains rivastigmine as its active ingredient and is delivered via a transdermal system. Each patch has a specific amount of rivastigmine and includes other components such as acrylic adhesive, silicone adhesive, and a protective liner.
Precautions and Warnings
Certain precautions need to be considered when using the Exelon Patch. It is contraindicated for individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergies to rivastigmine or any of the patch components. Patients should inform their healthcare provider about any pre-existing medical conditions, medications, or supplements, as these may interact with the Exelon Patch. Special caution is advised for individuals with impaired liver or kidney function, as dosage adjustments may be necessary.
In summary, the Exelon Patch is a transdermal medication used to manage mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease-related dementia. It provides a continuous dose of rivastigmine through the skin, aiming to improve cognitive function, memory, and behavior.

Generic medication is simply a medication that has been manufactured by a different company, rather than the company who originally held the patent on the product. Generic medications work in the exact same manner as brand name medications and are bio-equivalent to their brand name counterparts. Generic versions of medications cost far less because they invest less money on marketing.
