What does this imprint mean?

The imprint "5 FL" is a code stamped or printed on the tablet or capsule by the manufacturer, used to identify the drug, its strength and the maker.

Active ingredient

Memantine

Uses and warnings

No boxed warning. The label's key caution is that "conditions that raise urine pH may decrease the urinary elimination of memantine, resulting in increased plasma levels" (e.g., carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, sodium bicarbonate), requiring careful monitoring. It also notes that "combined use of memantine hydrochloride with other NMDA antagonists...has not been systematically evaluated and such use should be approached with caution."

Indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
