Prescription: including but not limited to donepezil, galantamine, rivastigmine, tacrine, memantine, Axona™;
Reason for stoppage of donepezil may not be related to tolerability issues or to gain entry in this study.
Non-prescription treatments for cognitive enhancement.
* Subjects with either non-removable ferromagnetic implants (such as cardiac pacemaker), aneurysm clips or other foreign bodies that would contraindicate a brain MRI scan.
* A clinically significant (as determined by the PI) abnormality in the 12-lead ECG, including complete heart block, bradycardia (heart rate \<40 beats/minute), sinus pauses \>2 seconds, second or third degree heart block, QTc \>450 or other abnormalities judged clinically significant by the PI.
