with dementia does not necessarily mean that a medication causes dementia.
If you are concerned about cognitive changes, discuss all of your medications—including prescription drugs, over-the-counter products, and supplements—with a healthcare professional. In some cases, the dose can be reduced, a medication can be changed, or a non-drug treatment such as cognitive behavioral therapy, sleep improvement, stress management, or lifestyle modification may be appropriate.
Never abruptly stop medications such as benzodiazepines, corticosteroids, or antidepressants without medical advice.
