The use of steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, prescribed, for example, in the treatment of multiple sclerosis, causes disturbances in the long-term memory centers. True, a person's ability to remember and reproduce information is restored a few days after the abolition of these drugs.
As shown by studies conducted at the University of Heidelberg (Germany), the first memory problems begin within a month after the start of steroid therapy. They are expressed primarily in reducing a person's ability to remember new information, as well as remembering what was remembered a few days ago.
However, after the end of therapy, the restoration of the ability to remember takes no more than 10 days.
Steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are the main component of the therapy of a number of diseases accompanied by the development of inflammatory or degenerative changes in body tissues. Despite the fact that they are far from safe for the patient (long-term use of steroids causes a violation of hormonal balance in the body), the alternative now simply does not exist.
