description Memory loss and other cognitive disorders are frequent complaints from middle-aged people. Only a small proportion of these complaints are associated with a degenerative and/or vascular brain damage. The middle age group is prevailed by cognitive impairment associated with emotional disorders: pathological mood changes and anxiety disorders. Diagnosis of these disorders requires evaluation of both cognitive and emotional states. Therapy is targeted at managing emotional disorders (depression, anxiety), including psychotherapy and psychotropic drugs (antidepressants and tranquilizers) for more severe disorders. For mild disorders which prevail in clinical practice, EGb 761 (Tanakan) demonstrated efficacy by improving not only the cognitive function but also the emotional state of patients. Own experience showed Tanakan efficacy in patients with vertigo combined with mild cognitive or emotional disorders.
