Syracuse, N.Y. Upstate Medical University is seeking patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease to participate in a new clinical trial to test how a well-established blood pressure medication may help patients with disruptive behavior.
The joint study is called PEACE-AD, which stands for Prazosin for Disruptive Agitation in Alzheimer’s Disease. Prazosin has been used for several decades to treat high blood pressure, but may be able to help Alzheimer’s patients who have disruptive behavior due to the disease.
