Is namenda psychotropic drug

Namenda, or memantine, is primarily used to treat moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease. It works by regulating glutamate activity in the brain, which is involved in learning and memory. While it affects brain function, it is not classified as a psychotropic drug, which typically includes medications that alter mood, perception, or consciousness. Instead, Namenda is more focused on cognitive function rather than mood stabilization or psychosis treatment.
