The drug EXELON contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1 Rivastigmine hydrogen tartrate
UNII 9IY2357JPE - RIVASTIGMINE TARTRATE

Rivastigmine is an acetyl- and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitor of the carbamate type, thought to facilitate cholinergic neurotransmission by slowing the degradation of acetylcholine released by functionally intact cholinergic neurones. Thus, rivastigmine may have an ameliorative effect on cholinergic-mediated cognitive deficits in dementia associated with Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
