It is an enzyme blocker that works by restoring the balance of natural substances in the brain.

Signs of an allergic reaction may include difficulty breathing, hives (rash on your body), swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat—If you experience any of these symptoms, please call 911 or seek emergency medical care at the nearest emergency room (ER).

The common side effects of Aricept may include diarrhea, dizziness and drowsiness, loss of appetite or weight loss, nausea and vomiting, tremor or muscle cramps, trouble sleeping, and weakness. The serious side effects may include:
• Black stools;
