May 6, 2008
According to Researchers from Boston University School of Medicine who analyzed more than 49,000 U.S. veterans aged 55 and older who developed Alzheimer’s and nearly 200,000 who had no form of dementia, those who were prescribed ibuprofen for more than five years were 40 percent less likely to develop Alzheimer’s compared with those who did not.The longer they used ibuprofen, the lower their risk was. Dementia experts said the results were interesting but warned against people taking ibuprofen to reduce their risk.
