title: [The use of nimodipine in elderly dementia patients].
abstract: The analysis of original and literature evidence on nimodipin administration in senile patients with vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease allows the conclusion on positive effects of the drug on cognitive, motor, behavioral, neuropsychological and postural defects. Further efforts should be directed to the study of long-term regimens and elucidation of nimodipin ability to inhibit progression of dementia.
