Do you know someone who may be affected by Alzheimer’s disease? We’re here to help you understand the symptoms and warning signs.
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia. It’s a degenerative brain disease, which means it gets worse over time. Early-onset Alzheimer’s disease can occur before the age of 65, and precautions should be taken if its symptoms occur.
