摘要：
Although Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia currently there is no cure for it. Approved regulatory agencies therapeutic drugs limit to reduce specific symptoms and mildly improve the quality of life of patients. On this matter, the search for new therapeutic strategies has become a relevant necessity. This literature review briefly summarizes the main theories of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and addresses the main drugs that are used in the present. Other therapeutic strategies on study and substances commonly used are also discussed.
