The reversible causes of mild cognitive impairment (e.g., medication side-effects, alcohol, poor sleep, and head injuries) can often be treated by addressing those factors directly. For mild cognitive impairment associated with dementia (including Alzheimer's disease), there are no current pharmacological treatments.[1][2][3] Instead, strategies are used to help people with mild cognitive impairment improve their cognitive function and maintain independence in performing their typical daily tasks. These strategies include maintaining regular physical and cognitive activities and social interactions.[2][3][4] But more evidence is needed to determine their efficacy for preventing dementia.[2][3][5]
