Zusammenfassung

Aktuelle Daten deuten in bestimmten klinischen Konstellationen auf überlegene Therapieeffekte einer Kombinationsbehandlung der Demenz vom Alzheimer-Typ mit Memantin und einem Acetylcholinesteraseinhibitor im Vergleich zu einer Monotherapie hin. Neben insgesamt 5 und davon 2 positiven randomisierten, placebokontrollierten, doppelblinden Studien liegen positive Metaanalysen und Kosten-Nutzen-Analysen vor. Die Ergebnisse der kontrollierten Studien variieren. In verschiedenen Domänen konnten jedoch überlegene Therapieeffekte der Kombinationstherapie gezeigt werden, die auch in Metaanalysen bestätigt werden konnten. Dies wurde in der aktuellen S3-Leitlinie „Demenzen“ berücksichtigt. Wir geben einen Überblick zur aktuellen Evidenz der Kombinationstherapie.
