If a person forgets names, places or facts -and has trouble with everyday things like reading or
shopping-it may not mean you are getting old. It could be Alzheimer's disease. So it's important to see
a doctor as soon as you can.
There is no cure for Alzheimer's. But a drug called ARICEPT has been used by millions of people
to help their symptoms (症状).
In studies, ARICEPT has been proved to work for Alzheimer's. It has helped people improve their
memory over time. It has also helped them to keep doing everyday things on their own.
Ask your doctor if ARICEPT is right for you or your loved one. It is the Number One drug for
Alzheimer's in the world. The sooner you know it's Alzheimer's, the better ARICEPT can help.
ARICEPT is good for many but may not be good for everyone. Some people may experience not
sleeping well, feeling very tired, or not wanting to eat. In studies, these side effects weren't serious at
all and went away over time. Some people taking ARICEPT may feel light-headed. In this case you
should tell your doctors because your condition may get worse.
