Abstract

Cholinesterase inhibitors have recently been made available for the management of those with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The National Institute for Clinical Excellence has limited initial assessment and prescribing to secondary care, but recommended that shared care protocols with primary care need to be developed for ongoing management. We describe a protocol which may be useful as a model for this purpose.
