Viagra cuts the risk of Alzheimer’s by 70 percent…
Scientists claim the love drug may help boost brain health and cut levels of toxic proteins that trigger dementia.
Experts analyzed data on 7.2 million US adults and found regular users had a 69 percent lower chance of being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s over the next six years. Medics say the findings, published in the journal Nature Aging, suggest the little blue pill could soon be prescribed to tackle dementia.
They are planning a fresh study to test the benefits of sildenafil — the generic version of Viagra — in early Alzheimer’s patients. A team from Cleveland Clinic looked at whether any of 1,600 approved drugs could be repurposed to tackle the underlying causes of the disease.
Cleveland Clinic’s Genomic Medicine Institute, said: “Sildenafil, which has been shown to significantly improve cognition and memory in preclinical models, presented as the best drug candidate.
“Sildenafil may have neuroprotective effects and reduce levels of toxic tau proteins.” Around 850,000 Brits currently have the brain-wasting disease — and the figure is expected to hit 1 million within a decade.
Two in three cases of dementia are due to Alzheimer’s.
