Usage: Why is this medication prescribed?

The main active ingredient or salt in Mentra (5 mg) is Memantine.

Memantine is used to treat the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD; a brain disease that slowly destroys the memory and the ability to think, learn, communicate and handle daily activities).
