Dr.Robert Rowen,MD in his newsletter Second Opinion _www.secondop
inionnewsletter.com_ (http://www.secondopinionnewsletter.com) of August 2008 wrote about
the remarkable improvement in Alzheimers Disease after the administration of
the prescription drug etanercept, trade name Enbrel. The resulting
improvement in clarity of thought was rapid and substantial.
The critics of Alternative Medicine, frequently state that we never have
anything good to say about prescription drugs. Sadly they are right about the
risks of most prescription drugs exceeding the benefits. This is one of those
exceptions, but it is not without a risk that has to be weighed.
Enbrel is an older drug used for treatment of arthritis. It is a powerful
anti-inflammatory drug. The drug is administered by a doctor injecting it into
the spinal canal in the neck at the base of the skull. The patient must then
be tilted so that the drug flows up into the brain. This must be done weekly
until improvement stabilizes. The researchers at UCLA Medical Center have
followed patients for as long as 3 years without regression of symptoms.
It is a very skillful procedure and you need a doctor who is knowledgeable
about this delicate procedure. The drug Enbrel is not without risk in and of
itself. It has produced Multiple Sclerosis type symptoms in some patients. But
the substantial benefit in Alzheimers Disease may be worth the risk. In the
long run view this study, by highlighting the inflammatory process as one of
the principal causes of Alzheimers may point the way toward more natural and
safer treatments for Alzheimers Disease. Below find the Medline study of this
drug.
