Outcome parameters included ADAS-cog/11, Bayer-ADL scale (self- and caregivers’ ratings), 10-item NPI and CGI-change, safety and tolerability measures. Data are presented based […]

Effects of galantamine in Alzheimer’s disease: double-blind withdrawal studies evaluating sustained versus interrupted treatment
