Abstract

Acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEis) therapy in Alzheimer Disease (AD) has been shown to provide cognitive benefits and to slow progression of the disease. AChEis have also been demonstrated to improve behavioral symptoms, although there seem to be subtle differences in the magnitude of response. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of 16 weeks treatment with AChEis on depressive symptoms in a selected sample of AD patients in routine clinical practice.
