Silvercept Tablets 3 mg (Donepezil Hydrochloride Monohydrate)

Adult dose

As donepezil hydrochloride, administer 5 mg once daily before sleep. If sleep disturbances occur, such as strange dreams, nightmares, or insomnia, consider taking the medication in the morning. Donepezil concentrations reach a steady state 15 days after administration, and the frequency of adverse reactions may be affected by the rate of dose escalation, so administer 5 mg for 4-6 weeks. Clinical responses during this period should be evaluated.
