wilsonjames+FollowStatins & Alzheimer’s: What’s the Real Risk?Ever wondered if statins could mess with memory, especially for someone with Alzheimer’s? Turns out, some statins (the lipophilic kind) might get into the brain and cause memory issues, but the risk is actually lower than you’d think—mainly because statins help prevent strokes, which can make dementia worse. If you’re worried, ask about switching to hydrophilic statins like rosuvastatin, which have fewer memory complaints.
