How Does Donepezil Interact with Other Medications?
Donepezil can interact with a variety of other medications, which may potentiate its effects or increase the risk of toxicity. For example, concurrent use with other cholinergic drugs can enhance the risk of cholinergic side effects. Conversely, anticholinergic drugs may reduce donepezil's efficacy. Careful review of a patient's medication regimen is necessary to avoid harmful interactions.
