I live in the UK and have been on this drug (bapineuzumab) for about 18months now and I am told it has slowed down the progress of this disease. I have had no ill effects from the medication either which is great.

Sarah,
Please contact als.org 24-hour hotline at 1-800-272-3900 and see if there is a clinical trial involving this drug.

I would like to know why we cant try these drugs on patients with alzheimers What can it hurt just the bexaretone for skin cancer i dont know if im morally wrong for saying this but do we really worry bout side affects they dont have a life the way they are or let them have dignity. I look every night for something new for my mother i never thought it would be this tough
