Alzheimer's disease currently lacks a definitive cure, but several treatments aim to manage symptoms and slow progression. Medications such as cholinesterase inhibitors (donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine) and memantine are commonly prescribed to improve cognitive function and manage behavioral symptoms. Non-pharmacological approaches like cognitive stimulation therapy and structured routines can also help maintain quality of life. Lifestyle adjustments such as regular physical exercise, a balanced diet, and social engagement are advocated to support brain health. Research into new therapies, including immunotherapies and gene therapies, offers hope for future treatments. Careful management involving healthcare professionals, caregivers, and support networks remains crucial in providing comprehensive care for individuals affected by Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.
