About Namenda
Overview
Namenda contains memantine, a medicine used to treat moderate to severe dementia of the Alzheimer’s type. It is thought to work by blocking certain brain receptors called NMDA receptors, which are activated by the chemical messenger glutamate. There is no evidence that memantine prevents or slows the loss of nerve cells in Alzheimer’s disease.
What it treats
Moderate to severe dementia of the Alzheimer’s type.
Safety information
Side effects
The most common side effects of memantine are dizziness, headache, confusion and constipation. Other reported side effects include tiredness, pain, back pain, high blood pressure, vomiting, sleepiness, hallucinations, cough and shortness of breath. Serious problems that warrant prompt medical attention include seizures, which occurred in clinical trials, and the following reactions reported after approval: • Blood disorders, including low white blood cells, low platelets, reductions in several types of blood cells, and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, a disorder involving blood clots and low platelets. • Congestive heart failure. • Inflammation of the pancreas or liver. • Suicidal thoughts. • Acute kidney failure or reduced kidney function. • Stevens–Johnson syndrome, a serious skin reaction. For reactions reported after approval, the frequency is unknown, and a causal link to memantine has not always been established. Memantine has not been systematically studied in people with seizure disorders.
When to call your doctor
If symptoms are severe or getting worse quickly, seek emergency care rather than waiting.
Before taking this medicine
Do not take Namenda if you have a known allergy to memantine hydrochloride or any other ingredient in the tablets. Caution is needed if you have a condition that makes your urine less acidic (raises urine pH). This can reduce the amount of memantine cleared through the urine and increase its level in the blood.
Interactions
Tell your doctor if you take sodium bicarbonate or carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. These medicines can make urine less acidic, slowing the removal of memantine from the body and potentially increasing side effects. Diet can also affect urine acidity, as can conditions such as renal tubular acidosis or severe urinary tract infections. Also tell your doctor if you take amantadine, ketamine or dextromethorphan. Combining memantine with these medicines has not been systematically studied and requires caution.
