Many people with memory loss seem to do best when they work with their doctors to combine multiple types of treatments. With this multi-pronged approach, treatments can include:
- Prescription medicines
- Alternative medicine, vitamins and supplements
- Lifestyle changes
- Other “tune-ups.”
Several new approaches to preventing and treating memory loss are being studied. Clinicaltrials.gov has detailed information on clinical trials of drugs for Alzheimer’s, dementia and Mild Cognitive Impairment.
