Weight loss increases dementia risk and promotes dementia progression. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, which is a dementia drug, has a side effect of decreased appetite, but rivastigmine, which also has butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitory action, has been reported to increase appetite. This may be related to the conversion of ghrelin, which acts on appetite enhancement, from active form to inactive form by BChE. To evaluate the relationship between cognitive function and appetite in AD patients by rivastigmine by conducting appetite questionnaire (JSNAQ) at the Fukui University Hospital, before and after administration of rivastigmine patch.
Efficacy
Appetite Questionnaire (JSNAQ) (at the start of the test, 3, 6 and 12 months)
MMSE-J (cognitive function evaluation) (at the start of the test, 3, 6 and 12 months)
