The present invention provides a composition for preventing or treating neurodegenerative diseases, the composition containing a
phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor (PDE5 inhibitor) and an N-methyl-D-aspartate-
receptor (NMDA-
receptor)
antagonist, and a method of using the same, wherein the PDE5 inhibitor is mironafil,
sildenafil,
vardenafil,
tadalafil, udenafil, dabigatafil,
avanafil, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, a solvate, a
hydrate or a mixture thereof; and the NMDA-
receptor antagonist is selected from the group consisting of
memantine,
amantadine,
ketamine, trasolodipine, Lanisidine, lispiranet, pethidine, levonorfen,
methadone, dextroproxen,
tramadol, ktormitone,
dextromethorphan (DXM), phencyclidine (PCP), and methoxyximine (MXE), pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, and mixtures thereof; and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, and mixtures thereof, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, and mixtures thereof, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, and mixtures thereof, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, and mixtures thereof; and the neurodegenerative
disease is
dementia, Parkinson's
disease (PD),
dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), Alzheimer's
disease (AD), Huntington's disease (HD),
multiple sclerosis (MS), vascular
dementia (VaD),
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS),
frontotemporal dementia or a mixed cause thereof.
