Alzheimer's drug adoption in US slowed by doctors' skepticism
Quick Glance: Alzheimer's Drug Uptake Hindered by Doctors' Skepticism in US
  • The first drug to slow the progression of Alzheimer's, Leqembi by Eisai and Biogen, is facing resistance in the US from doctors who believe the treatment is futile.

  • The requirements of Leqembi, such as additional diagnostic tests, twice-monthly infusions, and regular brain scans, have led to slow adoption as many doctors express concerns about efficacy, cost, and risks.

  • Despite FDA approval and proven benefits in clinical trials, many doctors still have reservations about Leqembi, hindering the widespread use of the drug.

  • The companies behind Leqembi are working to improve physician and patient education to increase acceptance of the medication, aiming to treat 100,000 patients by 2026.

Quick Glance: Experts Caution Against Risks of Marijuana Consumption
  • The 420 day, also known as 'Weed Day,' is celebrated, but experts warn about the health implications of marijuana consumption.

  • Studies suggest that marijuana smoke poses health risks, including an increased risk of stroke and heart attack, as well as links to heart issues.

  • Despite some medicinal benefits of marijuana, such as reducing seizures in epilepsy, there are warnings about the risks of excessive consumption, especially among adolescents and pregnant women.
