5 Everyday Medications Linked to Memory Loss in Seniors — Doctor Explains

In this video, we examine five widely used categories of medications that research has linked to cognitive changes in older adults. We'll discuss anticholinergic medications, benzodiazepines, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), statins, and opioid pain medications, along with what current scientific evidence says about memory, attention, cognitive function, and healthy aging. You'll also learn about important concepts such as polypharmacy, the Anticholinergic Cognitive Burden (ACB) Scale, and the American Geriatrics Society Beers Criteria, as well as questions you may wish to discuss with your healthcare provider during your next medication review.
