A study conducted by Rutgers found that adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are three times more likely to develop dementia than those without the condition. The study, which tracked over 100,000 senior citizens in Israel for 17 years, aims to better inform caregivers and clinicians about the risks associated with ADHD and dementia. The research suggests that ADHD treatment incorporating psychostimulants may help reduce the risk of dementia, but further studies are needed to explore the impact of medications on ADHD patients and their potential effects on risk.
