Rivastigmine
Rivastigmine (sold under the trade name Exelon) is a parasympathomimetic or cholinergic agent for the treatment of mild to moderate dementia of the Alzheimer's type and dementia due to Parkinson's disease. The drug can be administered orally or via a transdermal patch; the latter form reduces the prevalence of side effects,〔 which typically include nausea and vomiting.〔 The drug is eliminated through the urine, and appears to have relatively few drug-drug interactions.〔
