Dementia (Alzheimer’s)and its treatment methods in traditional and medical medicine
Texts and works of traditional (Iranian) medicine show that the physicians of this school of medicine, based on their own paradigm in the field of neurology, were familiar with dementia (Alzheimer's). Also the method of treatment and prescription of medicinal plants such as (frankincense, halibut, saffron, amla, etc.) for the treatment of this disease can be seen in the works and writings of physicians such as Razi, Ibn Sina, Ahwazi, etc. Contrary to the paradigm of traditional medicine (and its lack of commitment to the worldview of the four elements and the principles of temperaments and humors in the world), conventional medicine has taken a quantitative and reductionist approach to treating this disease. This study is an attempt to investigate the treatment of Alzheimer's disease using traditional medicine combinations and common medical prescriptions and its purpose is to answer this question: What are the therapeutic similarities between traditional medicine sources and common medical prescription methods?
This study is based on a descriptive-analytical method and by taking notes from the advanced medical sources (Al-Hawi, Qanun Fi Al-Tib, Kamel Al-Sina'a, Khalasa Al-Hakma, etc.) in libraries and comparing it with the resources in the database of Magiran publications and Jihad Daneshgahi Scientific Information Database and other new research papers have been formed.
Chemical analysis and decomposition of herbs and spices prescribed in traditional medicine confirms the fact that these drugs all have more or less different proportions of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and ... compounds. The most basic antioxidant properties of herbs and herbs are effective in preventing the destruction of brain cells.
The appropriateness and proximity of the chemical structure of drugs prescribed in conventional medicine such as Tacrine, Denpzil, etc. with the compounds in herbs and spices used in traditional medicine, shows a significant and remarkable similarity. This similarity can be researched and carefully considered by researchers in the vicinity of the treatment methods of these two schools of therapy, while maintaining the principles and structural principles of each.
