There is “good evidence” that drugs to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) might also successfully treat key aspects of Alzheimer’s disease, finds a pooled data analysis of the available research, published online in the Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery & Psychiatry.
Noradrenergic disruption occurs early in Alzheimer’s disease and contributes to the cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms that characterize the condition, suggesting that the noradrenergic system would be a good target for drug treatment.
