CAS 19982-08-2: Memantine

Description: Memantine is a pharmaceutical compound primarily used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. It acts as an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, which helps to regulate glutamate activity in the brain, potentially improving cognitive function and slowing disease progression. Memantine is characterized by its moderate affinity for NMDA receptors, allowing it to block excessive glutamate activity without completely inhibiting normal neurotransmission. The substance is typically administered orally and is available in various formulations, including tablets and oral solutions. Memantine has a relatively low potential for side effects compared to other treatments, making it a preferred option for many patients. Its chemical structure includes a bicyclic amine, contributing to its pharmacological properties. Memantine is generally well-tolerated, although some patients may experience side effects such as dizziness, headache, or constipation. Overall, its unique mechanism of action and safety profile make it a significant therapeutic agent in managing neurodegenerative disorders.
