What is Rivastigmine used for?

Evertas is primarily used for the treatment of mild to moderate dementia associated with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Rivastigmine, the active ingredient, works by increasing certain chemicals in the brain that are involved in cognitive processes.

These effects are generally mild and temporary, but persistent or severe reactions should be discussed with a healthcare provider.

What precautions apply to Rivastigmine?

Evertas should be used with caution in individuals with a history of skin conditions or allergies. It is important to apply the patch to clean, dry skin and rotate application sites to minimize skin irritation. Avoid exposing the patch to high temperatures or direct sunlight, as this can affect its effectiveness.
