@A myALZteam Member my husband’s neurologist originally put him on Namzaric. I don’t remember what we paid, but it is an expensive drug. Bill was a Navy veteran, so I reached out to the VA to see what kind of help they could give.

As you probably know, Namzaric is a time released capsule, a combination of Aricept and Namenda. The VA said they could provide the two drugs separately, but could not provide Namzaric. So the neurologist wrote a new prescription for the two drugs, and the VA provided these at $15 per month each. I don’t remember the dosages, but he did take one of these twice a day and the other once per day.

My Mom has been on Exelon & Namenda since her stroke over 4 years ago. The meds really kept her from rapid decline, she's just going through some changes recently. They are expensive, but well worth the cost.

Does insurance pay for Namzaric?

My husband is taking Namzaric. His progression is very slow, thank God.

Hi Karen, Hope this finds you and your loved one doing well and having a good day. With regards to Exelon & or Namenda my mom takes both however it did take some adjusting to find the proper dosing for her as like any other drug, our loved ones react differently to different medication cocktails.
We did find that after some adjusting Mom's memory decline was slowed down and we were able to keep her home longer.
