Studies Prove that These Drugs
Part ONE of FOUR
Drugs commonly taken for
a variety of common medical
conditions negatively affect
your brain,
causing long term
cognitive impairment.
These drugs,
called anticholinergics,
block acetylcholine,
a nervous system
neurotransmitter.
They include such common
over-the-counter brands as
Benadryl, Dramamine,
Excedrin PM, Nytol,
Sominex, Tylenol PM,
and Unisom.
Other anticholinergic drugs,
such as Paxil, Detrol,
Demerol and Elavil are
available only by
prescription.
Physorg reports:
“Researchers …
conducted a six-year
observational study,
evaluating 1,652 Indianapolis
area African-Americans over
the age of 70 who had normal
cognitive function when
the study began …
‘Taking one anticholinergic
significantly increased an
individual’s risk of developing
mild cognitive impairment and
taking two of these drugs
doubled this risk.’”
