Tacrine（Cat No.:I009680）, is a pharmaceutical compound that was once used in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. It functions as a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, which means it increases the levels of acetylcholine in the brain, a neurotransmitter involved in memory and cognition. Tacrine was one of the earliest drugs approved for Alzheimer’s, offering modest cognitive improvements.
