| description | In order to study the point of view of doctors supervising patients with dementia regarding the methods and tactics of treating diseases that occur with severe cognitive impairment, their experience in the use of drugs and criteria for choosing a drug for long-term treatment of dementia, an online survey of 197 specialists was conducted.The majority of Russian physicians surveyed prefer basic therapy for dementia, while the main criteria for choosing a drug for long-term therapy are effectiveness and safety of the drug. Despite the absence of drugs capable of complete curing of dementia, Russian doctors have certain expectations and goals when prescribing therapy, in particular, the hope for the longest possible preservation of the quality of life and capacity of patients, as well as slowing down the progression of the disease. 90% of respondents consider it necessary to continue (and even start) therapy even at a severe stage, despite the depletion of the effect. Memantine has become the main drug of choice in different regions of Russia as a drug with a wide range of registered indications, the fewest side effects and a low percentage of patient refusals. |
