Ciprofloxacin Tablets 5mg (Donepezil Hydrochloride Hydrate)

Adult dose

Administer 5 mg of Donepezil hydrochloride once daily before bedtime. If unusual dreams, nightmares, or sleep disturbances occur, morning dosing may be considered. Donepezil levels reach a steady state after 15 days of administration, and the frequency of adverse reactions may be influenced by the rate of dose increase, so a dosage of 5 mg should be maintained for 4 to 6 weeks. After evaluating clinical response during this period, dosage may be increased to 10 mg.
