Unfortunately, Alzheimer's Disease is currently an incurable disease. There is no method for completely stopping it or reversing the damage that it does. However, medications have been developed to stop some symptoms from worsening, but only for a limited period of time. These medicines are obviously most effectively used when Alzheimer's Disease just begins to develop.

Medications that have been developed for this purpose are Aricept (donepezil), Exelon (rivastigmine), and Razadyne (galantamine).
