There have been rapid and remarkable changes over the recent past in treating Parkinson's disease. The development of new drugs and an understanding of how best to use them and the older drugs have significantly improved the quality of life of people with the disease. Choices about medications made early in the course of the disease have a strong impact on the long-term course of the illness. While none is without side effects, available drugs can greatly enhance the quality of life of a Parkinson's patient, sometimes restoring function to nearly normal for some period of time. Over time, as the disease progresses, drug dosing is adjusted to best meet a patient's symptomatic needs. There are no drug treatments available that can provide a cure for Alzheimer's disease. However, medicines have been developed that can improve symptoms, or temporarily slow down their progression, in some people. There are two main types of medication used to treat Alzheimer's disease - cholinesterase inhibitors and NMDA receptor antagonists - which work in different ways. Cholinesterase inhibitors include donepezil hydrochloride (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon) and galantamine (Reminyl). The NMDA receptor antagonist is memantine (Ebixa).
According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 23.2 million persons (9.4 percent of the U.S. population) aged 12 or older needed treatment for an illicit drug or alcohol use problem in 2007. Of these individuals, 2.4 million (10.4 percent of those who needed treatment) received treatment at a specialty facility (i.e., hospital, drug or alcohol rehabilitation or mental health center). Thus, 20.8 million persons (8.4 percent of the population aged 12 or older) needed treatment for an illicit drug or alcohol use problem but did not receive it. These estimates are similar to those in previous years.
