Hi Adverse Events Leading to Discontinuation Aricept [donepezil hydrochloride] The most common adverse events.These include nausea, diarrhea, insomnia, vomiting, muscle cramp, fatigue and anorexia. These adverse events are often of mild intensity and transient, resolving during continued ARICEPT treatment without the need for dose modification. There is evidence to suggest that the frequency of these common adverse events may be affected by the rate of titration.It can affect the body as a whole.- I recommend you talk his/her or your doctor and reduce the doses gradually. It is my own personal opinion.
