Under
Investigation
Vitamin
E, ginkgo biloba and estrogen
Researchers
are testing vitamin E, ginkgo biloba and estrogen to
see if they are effective in treating or preventing Alzheimer's disease. More research is needed before scientists will
know if they have positive effects for people with the
disease. Talk to your doctor about these treatments.
Experimental
drugs and therapies
Other
drugs and therapies are also being tested for the treatment
of Alzheimer symptoms. Your local
Alzheimer Society will have information on clinical
drug trials in Canada. (Use your Back button
