Helps maintain independence in daily activities. How Does Rivastigmine Work? Rivastigmine, the active component of PYRITIGMIN RIVA 1.5, works as a cholinesterase inhibitor. In the brain, a chemical messenger called acetylcholine is essential for memory and learning. In dementia, acetylcholine levels drop due to increased breakdown by certain enzymes. Rivastigmine blocks the enzymes acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase, which are responsible for breaking down acetylcholine. By inhibiting these enzymes, Rivastigmine increases acetylcholine levels, improving communication between nerve cells. This process slows down the progression of dementia symptoms and helps patients maintain better mental function.

Titration: The dose may be gradually increased by the doctor depending on tolerance and patient response. Administration: Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water.
