“Early symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease include forgetting recent events or conversations. Over time, Alzheimer’s disease leads to serious memory loss and affects a person’s ability to do everyday tasks.

There is no cure for Alzheimer’s disease. In advanced stages, loss of brain function can cause dehydration, poor nutrition or infection. These complications can result in death.

But medicines may improve symptoms or slow the decline in thinking. Programs and services can help support people with the disease and their caregivers.”
