Osteoporosis Drug May Guard Against Alzheimer
A comprehensive study has shown that nitrogen-containing osteoporosis medications, such as bisphosphonates, reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease and dementia by up to 16% compared to no treatment, and by 24% compared to other osteoporosis drugs. Researchers analyzed medical records of approximately 120,000 individuals over the age of sixty and found that these medications have dual benefits: they strengthen bones and may also protect against cognitive decline. This is a significant discovery amid the rising global prevalence of dementia, as researchers seek to leverage current available medications as a low-cost preventative measure.
