Pregnancy issues with Alzheimer’s medication

Alzheimer's disease is rarely diagnosed in women of childbearing age. However, a rare form of Alzheimer's disease called early-onset Alzheimer's disease may sometimes affect people as in their 20s and 30s.

Women who are pregnant or are planning to become pregnant should consult with their physician about any medication used to treat Alzheimer's disease.
