Pinehurst Neuropsychology Brain & Memory Clinic

Pinehurst Neuropsychology Brain & Memory Clinic Pinehurst Neuropsychology
Pinehurst, North Carolina

Every Pinehurst Neuropsychology evaluation is driven by the same question: What exactly is going on here and what exactly are we going to do about it? Through our in depth interviews, comprehensive testing and review of medical records, we identify the most likely cause of cognitive change, including memory loss. Once a clear diagnosis is made, our goal is to make informed and personalized recommendations aimed at improving brain health, independence and quality of life. We have a strong commitment to empowering our patients and their families with a clear understanding about what is going on now and what to expect in the future. We use understandable language to explain the complex workings of the brain, the results of our evaluation and set our recommendations into motion. You will leave our evaluation with a plan of care that is clear and hope that there can be improvement no matter what the diagnosis.

Some of the most commonly prescribed medications can quietly interfere with memory especially after age 50. In this video, board-certified neuropsychologist Dr. Karen D. Sullivan explains five categories of medications that are widely used for sleep, anxiety, pain, bladder symptoms, and mood that may affect memory, attention and thinking over time. This does not mean these medications are “bad” or should be stopped. It means they deserve careful review especially when memory changes appear.

You’ll learn:
• why certain medications affect the aging brain differently
• common signs medication-related memory effects are being missed
• how to talk with your doctor about memory concerns safely and productively
• what to review before assuming memory changes are “just aging”

This video is for adults over 50, caregivers, and anyone helping a parent or loved one navigate medications and brain health.

Important note: Never stop or change a medication without talking with your prescribing healthcare provider. This video is for education and awareness only.
