Namenda (active ingredient: memantine) is a prescription medication indicated for:

  • Alzheimer’s Disease: Namenda is used for the treatment of moderate to severe dementia of the Alzheimer’s type. It helps to improve symptoms such as memory loss, confusion, and problems with thinking and reasoning.

Namenda belongs to a class of drugs known as N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists, which work by regulating the activity of glutamate, a chemical messenger involved in brain function. By blocking NMDA receptors, Namenda helps to prevent excessive activation of glutamate, which can contribute to neurodegeneration.

Memantine comes in the form of a tablet to take by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor. When you first start taking this medication, you will usually take it once daily but once your dose increases to more than 5 milligrams per day. To reduce your risk of side effects, your doctor may direct you to start this medication at a low dose and gradually increase your dose. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.

The recommended starting dose of NAMENDA is 5 mg (2.5 mL) once daily. The dose should be increased in 5 mg increments to 10 mg/day, 15 mg/day, and 20 mg/day. The minimum recommended interval between dose increases is one week. The dosage shown to be effective in controlled clinical trials is 20 mg/day.
