Agitation is a common symptom of Alzheimer’s disease and may include restlessness, irritability, pacing, verbal outbursts, resistance to care, or aggressive behavior. These symptoms can be distressing for both the individual and their caregivers.
Agitation can greatly affect quality of life and increase caregiver stress. Clinical studies like ADAGIO-2 help researchers evaluate potential treatments aimed at reducing agitation and improving daily functioning and comfort.
