Abstract:

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and compliance to therapy with Mioreol, first used as part of routine clinical practice in patients with moderate-to-severe dementia due to AD.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The study was conducted as a non-interventional observational program. The work was performed on a group of 48 patients with moderate-to-severe AD aged from 60 to 90 years (median age 74 [69; 77]). The therapeutic dose of Mioreol was 10 mg donepezil + 20 mg memantine, the drug was taken orally, once a day at the same time, regardless of meals. The duration of the course of therapy was 24 weeks. The effects of the drug were assessed using the MMSE, ADAS-Cog, NPI, and CGI scales before the start of therapy and by the end of 12 and 24 weeks of treatment.

RESULTS

The use of Mioreol in six-month therapy of AD patients with moderate-to-severe dementia improved not only cognitive but also a wide range of non-cognitive mental disorders. There was an improvement in the CGI-C scale in more than 50% of included patients, positive dynamics on the ADAS-cog scale (6.5 points reduction in total score) and reduction of non-cognitive mental disorders on the NPI scale (4 points reduction in total score).

CONCLUSION

Fixed-dose combination therapy with Mioreol is an effective and well-tolerated treatment option for patients with moderate-to-severe AD. A combination of fixed-dose therapeutic doses of donepezil and memantine is potentially more appropriate than the simultaneous use of two recommended drugs for the treatment of AD, which will improve treatment adherence in patients with moderate to severe AD.
