In patients on which the drug was tested, the decline in mental function was slowed by 81% as compared to patients not undergoing tests. The author of the study, Professor Claude Wischik said that if patients took medication for 19 years, the disease appears to have been stopped. Next year will be made new tests and whether they will give good results, it is possible the drug will appear on market by 2012.
