donepezil and Brain Injuries

donepezil has been researched along with Brain Injuries in 19 studies

Donepezil: An indan and piperidine derivative that acts as a selective and reversible inhibitor of ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE. Donepezil is highly selective for the central nervous system and is used in the management of mild to moderate DEMENTIA in ALZHEIMER DISEASE.
donepezil : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of (R)- and (S)-donepezil. A centrally acting reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, its main therapeutic use is in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease where it is used to increase cortical acetylcholine.
2-[(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)methyl]-5,6-dimethoxyindan-1-one : A member of the class of indanones that is 5,6-dimethoxyindan-1-one which is substituted at position 2 by an (N-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)methyl group.

Brain Injuries: Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Small studies performed in chronic stroke patients have indicated that single doses of reboxetine or citalopram improved different aspects of motor functions and that long-lasting application of donepezil reduced aphasic symptoms."4.84Pharmacotherapy in restorative neurology. ( Liepert, J, 2008)
"This review discusses the laboratory and clinical research supporting the rationale for the efficacy of donepezil (Aricept USA) in enhancing cognition in autism, Alzheimer disease, Down syndrome, traumatic brain injury, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and schizophrenia."4.84Relevance of donepezil in enhancing learning and memory in special populations: a review of the literature. ( Valdovinos, MG; Williams, DC; Yoo, JH, 2007)
" These data indicate that chronic administration of donepezil is not only ineffective in promoting functional improvement after moderate CCI injury, but depending on the dose is actually detrimental to the recovery process."1.39Donepezil is ineffective in promoting motor and cognitive benefits after controlled cortical impact injury in male rats. ( Bondi, CO; Kline, AE; Light, SH; Massimino, LA; McAloon, RL; Monaco, CM; Shaw, KE, 2013)
"Donepezil is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor that is used to treat Alzheimer's disease."1.35Neuroprotective and antiamnesic effect of donepezil, a nicotinic acetylcholine-receptor activator, on rats with concussive mild traumatic brain injury. ( Abe, T; Fujiki, M; Hikawa, T; Ishii, K; Kamida, T; Kobayashi, H; Kubo, T; Sugita, K, 2008)
" A prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial with standard timing, dosage and treatment duration is recommended to further evaluate treatment efficacy."1.32The effects of Donepezil on traumatic brain injury acute rehabilitation outcomes. ( Cornis-Pop, M; Gibellato, M; Jena, T; Lew, H; Seel, R; Silver, T; Walker, W, 2004)
