Alzheimer's Disease:
Parkinson's Disease:
Rivastigmine is a carbamate derivative that shares similarities with physostigmine but differs from donepezil or tacrine in its structure. While the precise mechanism of rivastigmine remains unknown, it is believed to reversibly bind to and deactivate cholinesterase enzymes, including acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase. This action inhibits the hydrolysis of acetylcholine, leading to an increase in acetylcholine levels at cholinergic synapses. Notably, rivastigmine's anticholinesterase effects are relatively selective for brain acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase compared to peripheral tissues.
