Is Memantine overkill" for early stage memory issues?

I have mild MCI, my concern is that Memantine is approved by the FDA to treat moderate to severe cognitive symptoms of Alzheimer's. I appreciate your input, I see a long list of possible side effects but that is not a concern yet. Would be interested to know if you have experienced any side effects.
Thanks

The most common side effects of Memantine are feeling sleepy or dizzy, headaches, constipation and shortness of breath. I had headaches prior to taking it so it’s hard to know. I can still have stretches of getting headaches that then subside. Too many variables! I don’t have the other side effects such as weight gain etc.
