3. Alzheimer explanation to patients
Disease explanation mnemonic: We Can Probably Manage
What-a type of dementia which affects the brain to process and retain information
Causes-genetic and environmental factors
Problem- if left untreated, the progression of the disease will be faster, it can affect patient
life greatly as they could not carry put their daily life activities by themselves, however, if we
detected it early, like what we did today, with some medication, we will be able to delay the
progression of the disease, so that patient can carry out their daily activities for as long as
possible
Investigation: AMTS, ACE iii, mental state examination, urine drug, TFT, FBC, rule out any
organic cause
Management: refer to specialist memory service
Medical: donepezil, rivastigmine and galantamine (can cause heart block and peptic ulcer)
ask about symptoms and ECG 1st
Memantine side effects-hallucination, confusion and hypersexuality
If patient display aggressive features which can bring harm to himself and people around
him, antipsychotic medication might be needed, however we think this is very unlikely, as
this is more prevalent in late stage of the disease
4. Atypical antipsychotic explanation -olanzapine
Drug explanation mnemonic: ATHLETIC
Action- it works by blocking the receptors which dopamine binds to, a neurotransmitter in
our brain which is responsible for thought process, to prevent over activity of the dopamine
in the brain
Time- depending on what type u are using, there are two types, tablets and depot
injections, for tablets u have to take it every day, injection is longer lasting, u have to receive
another injection in 2 to 4 weeks depending on the dosage u r using
