Antidepressants are frequently prescribed to persons with Alzheimer’s disease before the diagnosis, according to a recent study from the University of Eastern Finland. Among persons with Alzheimer’s disease, the initiation of antidepressant use was most common during the six months after the Alzheimer’s diagnosis, and more frequent than among comparison persons without Alzheimer’s disease even 4 years after the diagnosis. The results were published in International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry.
