Possible link between taking multiple medications and dementia diagnosis

Science Daily has just published an article “Study explores link between people taking multiple medications and dementia diagnosis”. The artile describes research being undertaken by the University of Plymouth, looking into the connection between taking multiple medications and dementia diagnosis. Whilst the discovery of the slowing down effect of Alzheimer’s disease with the new drug Lecanemab is welcome, prevention of the outbreak of the disease is the overall goal and this study may inform safe prescribing practices.
