Hi all, I'm not trying to be an alarmist, as I know AEDs have all sorts of effects: good and bad, short and long term, etc.
But, I just saw an article on the long term effect of anticholinergic drugs and their relationship to 50% greater chance of dementia in older patients. AEDs were mentioned, and I've been looking but not seen a definitive list of which AEDs are anticholinergic.
Does any one know? Are they all anticholinergic?
I've seen several version of the article, but one is here: https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/24/health/dementia-risk-drug-study/index.html
