Abstract
Prevalence of dementia continues to increase with limited pharmacotherapy options available. Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors remain a mainstay of treatment. The US FDA has approved three oral medications within this class- donepezil, galantamine, and rivastigmine. In 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration approved a novel patch formulation for donepezil that could be beneficial for patients with dysphagia as well as potentially decreasing the side effect burden. The purpose of this analysis is to review the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and clinical considerations related to this novel formulation.
