摘要：

Neuropsychiatric symptoms are common in Alzheimer's disease. Personality changes, mood disturbance, and psychosis are frequently seen and may coexist in the same patient. Neuropsychiatric symptoms may signal the onset of disease and often fluctuate and recur. These symptoms are associated with a more rapid cognitive and functional decline that can lead to institutionalization. Cholinergic therapy, disease-modifying therapy, and psychotropic medications can improve these symptoms.
