(对应原文第3段) COMBINATION THERAPY. A yearlong study of more than 400 Alzheimer’s patients showed that two drugs that work differently on the brain’s chemistry act well together to help slow down the disease. Patients who were being treated with donepezil(sold as Aricept), an older drug that reserves the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, were also given memantine(Namenda), a new drug approved by the FDA last October that blocks overproduction of a harmful brain chemical called glutamate. The two drugs worked even better in combination than they did alone, providing substantial benefit for patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer’s, according to a report in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
