Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly. The number of people affected by AD is rapidly increasing. AD is characterized by cerebral atrophy, cerebral senile plaques, intraneuronal neurofibrillary tangles, and neuronal cell loss. Medical treatment of AD has a long history and differing results. We will review the effectiveness and limitations of the drugs used to treat AD. © 2012, International Research and Cooperation Association for Bio & Socio-Sciences Advancement. All rights reserved.
