Buy Rivastigmine 3 mg Capsules online. Each capsule contains 3 mg of rivastigmine (as rivastigmine hydrogen tartrate), a cholinesterase inhibitor used to treat mild to moderate dementia caused by Alzheimer’s disease or Parkinson’s disease. It contains the same active ingredient as the reference brand Exelon. In the USA, UK and Australia it is a prescription medicine, so a valid prescription is needed for your order. See today’s price above and add it to your cart.

The 3 mg capsule is the second step, taken twice a day with meals after the starting dose has been tolerated. It helps with memory, thinking and day-to-day activities but does not cure the disease. Approved uses and legal status differ between countries, so this page covers the USA, UK, Australia, the UAE and Russia.

What Is Rivastigmine 3 mg Used For?

Alzheimer’s disease: rivastigmine capsules are used for mild to moderately severe dementia of the Alzheimer’s type.

Parkinson’s disease dementia: they are also used for mild to moderate dementia associated with Parkinson’s disease.

Second dose step: the 3 mg strength is the next step after 1.5 mg twice a day, and a number of people continue at this level if it works well for them.

How Rivastigmine Works

Rivastigmine is a cholinesterase inhibitor. In Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease dementia, the brain has too little acetylcholine, a chemical messenger important for memory and thinking. Rivastigmine blocks the enzymes that break acetylcholine down, so more of it is available. This can help with memory, thinking and daily activities, but it does not cure or stop the underlying disease.

Dosage and Administration

The UK product information describes starting at 1.5 mg twice a day, taken with morning and evening meals. After at least two weeks, if it is well tolerated, the dose may be raised to 3 mg twice a day, then 4.5 mg and 6 mg twice a day, with at least two weeks between each step. The maximum is 6 mg twice a day (12 mg a day). The US label describes the same steps.

Moving to 3 mg: after at least two weeks on 1.5 mg twice a day, if it is well tolerated, the dose may be raised to 3 mg twice a day. Take the capsules with the morning and evening meals. Do not change the dose yourself. Always follow the leaflet in the pack and the advice of your prescriber or pharmacist.

Possible Side Effects

  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhoea
  • Loss of appetite and weight loss
  • Stomach pain or indigestion
  • Dizziness
  • Drowsiness
  • Headache
  • Sweating
  • Tremor or agitation

Seek urgent medical help for fainting or a very slow heartbeat, black or bloody stools, vomiting blood, severe or persistent vomiting, a seizure, or swelling of the face, lips or throat. Tell your doctor if you lose weight or cannot eat or drink, because dehydration can follow severe vomiting.

Warnings and Precautions

  • Starting dose: always start at the lowest dose. If you stop for more than a few days, do not restart at your old dose; restart at 1.5 mg twice a day and build up again.
  • Take with food: taking capsules with meals reduces nausea and vomiting.
  • Heart rhythm: rivastigmine can slow the heart. Use with caution in sick sinus syndrome, heart block or if you take beta blockers.
  • Stomach ulcers and bleeding: it can increase stomach acid, so tell your doctor if you have ulcers or take NSAIDs.
  • Asthma and lung disease: use with caution in asthma or COPD.
  • Seizures and urinary problems: tell your doctor if you have epilepsy or difficulty passing urine.
  • Parkinson’s disease: tremor or stiffness can worsen in some people. Report any changes.
  • Other medicines: anticholinergic medicines work against rivastigmine, and it can increase the effect of some muscle relaxants used in surgery. Tell any doctor or dentist you take it.
  • Weight: your weight may be checked regularly, as loss of appetite and weight loss are common.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding: it is not intended for use in pregnancy or breastfeeding.
  • Allergy: do not use if you are allergic to rivastigmine or other carbamate medicines, or any ingredient.
  • Driving: dizziness and drowsiness can occur. Ask your doctor whether it is safe for you to drive.
