Donepezil (also used incorrectly as Donezepil), marketed under the trade name Aricept (Eisai), is a centrally acting reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. Its main therapeutic use is in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease where it is used to increase cortical acetylcholine. It has an oral bioavailability of 100% and easily crosses the blood-brain barrier. Because it has a half life of about 70 hours, it can be taken once a day. Initial dose is 5 mg per day, which can be increased to 10 mg per day after an adjustment period of at least 4 weeks.

Tolterodine acts on M2 and M3 subtypes of muscarinic receptors whereas most antimuscarinic treatments for overactive bladder only act on M3 receptors making them more selective. It is marketed and distributed by Pfizer inc.
Tolterodine, although it acts on two types of receptors, has fewer side effects than other antimuscarinics eg. oxybutynin (which is selective for M3 only) as tolterodine targets the bladder more than other areas of the body. This means that less drug needs to be given daily (due to efficient targeting of the bladder) and so there are fewer side effects.
