Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive disease that destroys memory along with other significant mental functions. While current treatment can help, there are no known cures.

The research study involves testing skin patches as a new form of treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. The medication used in the patches is already approved in Australia in the tablet form. The patches may help people with Alzheimer’s disease by reducing the side effects of the tablet version.
