Abstract
1.
1. Pharmacological agents with a potential to induce dementia are reviewed with special reference to anxiolytic sedatives, anticonvulsants, antineoplastic drugs and various metals.
2.
2. The possible role of cholinergic mechanisms, tetrahydrofolate deficiency and aluminum in the development of dementia is briefly discussed.
