Cognex Pharmacology

Tacrine is a parasympathomimetic, specifically, a reversible cholinesterase inhibitor. Tacrine is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate dementia of the Alzheimer's type. Tacrine is postulated to exert its therapeutic effect by enhancing cholinergic function. This is accomplished by increasing the concentration of acetylcholine through reversible inhibition of its hydrolysis by acetylcholinesterase. If this proposed mechanism of action is correct, tacrine's effect may lessen as the disease process advances and fewer cholinergic neurons remain functionally intact. There is no evidence that tacrine alters the course of the underlying dementing process.

Cognex Absorption

Tacrine is rapidly absorbed. Absolute bioavailability of tacrine is approximately 17 ± 13%.
