Clinical information

Alzheimer's is a progressive neurological disorder that causes memory loss, confusion, and difficulty with daily tasks. It is the most common cause of dementia in people over 65 years old. It is estimated to affect more than 6 million Americans and is the fifth leading cause of death for those aged 65 and older in the United States.

People with late-onset Alzheimer's disease may experience memory loss, language difficulties, difficulty with problem-solving and judgment, confusion, changes in personality or behavior, and difficulty performing everyday activities independently. As the disease progresses, people may become unable to care for themselves and require assistance with activities of daily living. 

Although there is no cure for G30.1, specific treatments and interventions may help slow its progression or ease some symptoms. These include medications such as cholinesterase inhibitors, which can help improve thinking and memory, and other treatments such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or lifestyle modifications to help manage the symptoms of G30.1.
