"There are only few drugs available to treat Alzheimer's disease, and none can delay or prevent progression of the disease. The results of the Phase 3 clinical study showed rapid onset of efficacy of Sodium Oligomannate within 4 weeks, and that patients' cognitive function continued to improve. The treatment was safe during the 36-week clinical trial."
