8 Myths of Alzheimer’s Disease – Part VIII

8 Myths of Alzheimer’s Disease – Part VIII

This is the final part of an eight part series on common myths of Alzheimer’s Disease.  These myths were originally provided by the Alzheimer’s Association.  Senior Solutions has memory care services available at three of our locations and we are committed to being an active part of the Alzheimer’s community.  We look forward to your feedback on this series.

 

Myth 8: There are treatments available to stop the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.


Reality:
At this time, there is no treatment to cure, delay or stop the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. FDA-approved drugs temporarily slow worsening of symptoms for about 6 to 12 months, on average, for about half of the individuals who take them.
