Rivastigmine BA Trial With Multiple Application of Transdermal Patches, Adaptation and Tapering Phase

Detailed Description
This will be a single centre, open-label, randomised (order of treatments), balanced, 2-period, 2-sequence, cross-over trial with multiple applications of rivastigmine transdermal patches. There will be no wash-out, i.e. the first investigational patch application of the second study period will take place the day of the last investigational patch removal of the first study period (direct switch-over).
Prior to start of first treatment, there will be an adaptation phase with 4 consecutive applications of Exelon® 9.5 mg/24 hours transdermal patch over a period of 4 days (each patch will be applied for 24 hours). Following the removal of the last investigational patch in period II, there will be a post-treatment tapering phase with 2 consecutive applications of Exelon® 9.5 mg/24 hours transdermal patch over a period of 2 days (each patch will be applied for 24 hours).
Furthermore, during the adaptation phase, both study periods and the tapering phase, scopolamine transdermal patches will be applied as co-medication to attenuate effects of rivastigmine and reduce Adverse Events.
