Exelon, known generically as rivastigmine, is a medication used to treat symptoms of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease dementia. It works by inhibiting the breakdown of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter important for memory and cognitive function, thereby enhancing communication between nerve cells in the brain. This can help improve or stabilize cognitive symptoms in affected individuals, although it does not cure the underlying diseases.
