Memantine Ebixa® - approved for treatment of Alzheimers disease

Release number: 61 Release date: 20-02-2002

On the meeting of 20 February 2002 the Committee for Proprietary Medicinal Products (CPMP) recommended to the EU commission to approve memantine for the treatment of moderately severe to severe Alzheimers disease. Marketing authorisation covering the EU is expected late first half 2002, and Lundbeck will launch memantine under the brand name Ebixa® during the second half of 2002.

Ebixa® is the first in a new class of drugs for Alzheimers disease, NMDA receptor antagonists, demonstrating clinically significant efficacy in patients with moderately severe and severe Alzheimers disease. Ebixa® is expected to fulfil unmet needs within this group of patients - for whom no approved treatment has been available until now.
