Tacrine: New Medicine
for A lzheim er’s
Recently the Peripheral and
Central Nervous System Drugs
Advisory Committee of the Food
and Drug Administration (FDA)
unanimously recommended ap
proval of tacrine (Cognex by
Warner Lambert). The recom
mendation was made for the
treatment of symptoms of mild to
moderate Alzheimer's disease, the
most common form of dementia.
Alzheimer’s disease is a neu
rological condition which affects
about four million Americans, or
one out of ten persons over the age
of 65. Some of the more complex
abilities associated with thinking
and remembering, such as language
and perception, are lost.
Researchers are focusing their
efforts on neurotransmitter sub
stances in the brain and enzyme
inhibitors that affect memory and
cognitive ability. One transmitter
material is called acetylcholine.
Some research has been directed
at evaluating the value of adminis
tering substances, such as lecithin,
that increase levels of acetylcho
line in the brain. During the last
few years researchers have dis
covered that other substances such
as tacrine inhibit an enzyme that
destroys acetylcholine The pres
ence of acetylcholine is thought to
help Alzheimer's patients. In one
recent study, over half of the pa
tients who received 80 mg of
tacrine a day for 12 weeks showed
improvements in cognitive assess
ment scale ratings.
