Two oral acethycholinesterase inhibitors, donepezil and galantamine, are frequently prescribed for Alzheimer's disease patients. However, there is no long-term comparison study on cognitive function in Japan. In this study, we compare the long-term effect of these two drugs on cognitive function in a large number of Alzheimer's disease patients.

Galantamin is administered in a half of the patients agreed with this study. The starting dose of galantamin is 8 mg/day, and the maintenance dose is 16-24 mg/day.
The study period is 12 months. Blinded examiners evaluate cognitive function using MMSE at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months treatment.
Donepezil is adiministerd in a half of the patients agreed with this study. The starting dose of denepezil is 3 mg/day, and the maintenance dose is 5 mg/day.
The study period is 12 months. Blinded examiners evaluate cognitive function using MMSE at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months treatment.

Untreated Altzheimer's disease patients with MMSE score between 10 and 27 at screening.
The patients with allergy to cholinesterase inhibitors are excluded.
