The war on Alzheimer's disease and other cognitive ravages of aging is stimulating an intensive effort to develop drugs to improve cognitive functioning. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration already has approved a number of these drugs, including donepezil (Aricept®), rivastigmine tartrate (Exelon®), galantamine HBr (Reminyl®), and memantine (Namenda®). In addition, the new psychostimulant modafinil (Provigil®) improves alertness, a key factor in cognitive performance.
