Important to know
These symptoms do not automatically mean someone has Alzheimer’s disease. They can also be caused by other conditions, such as medication side effects, depression, sleep disorders, vitamin deficiencies, or other medical problems. If these symptoms are persistent or worsening, it’s important to seek a medical evaluation, as early diagnosis can help identify the cause and guide treatment or support.
