Certain sleep medications may raise one’s risk of developing dementia,
according to new research.
Sleep disturbances, which are common as people get older, have been
associated with an increased risk of all types of dementia.
According to the CDC, more than 10% of older adults in the United States
take medications most days to help them sleep.
A new study has found that, particularly in white people, frequent use of
sleep medications may increase the risk of dementia.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 8.4% of
all adults aged 18 or over regularly take medications to help them sleep.
Among older adults, usage is higher, with 11.9% of those aged over 65 using
sleep medications.As we age, more likely to experience sleep disorders.
However, for some, these medications may be doing more harm than good,
according to new research from the University of California, San Francisco.
