Huperzine A is a chemical extracted from Chinese club moss or fir club moss plants. It can also be made in a laboratory. Be careful not to confuse huperzine A, which is also called selagine, with similar sounding medications such as selegiline (Eldepryl). Also be careful not to confuse one of the brand names for huperzine A (Cerebra) with the brand names for unrelated prescription drugs such as celecoxib (Celebrex) and citalopram (Celexa). Huperzine A is used to improve memory and mental function in people with Alzheimer disease or other types of dementia.
Huperzine A increases levels of a chemical called acetylcholine. This seems to help in diseases that interfere with memory and thinking (dementia), and in the muscle disease, myasthenia gravis.
