NHS PRESCRIPTION OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE DRUGS

EDM number 290 in 2005-06, proposed by Alan Meale on 09/06/2005.

That this House notes that the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) has issued draft guidance in which it is stated that drug treatments for people with Alzheimer's disease should not be prescribed on the NHS; believes such guidance to be wrong as it fails to recognise the benefits of drugs to the quality of life of dementia sufferers and their carers and neither acknowledges the clinical effectiveness of such treatments nor recognises the fact that the funding of memory clinics and other specialist services for people with dementia would almost certainly be withdrawn if this decision is not reversed; and calls upon the Government to intervene and respond to the wishes of the thousands of sufferers, their carers, consultants, doctors, Alzheimer's Society members and others to call a halt to NICE's direction away from helpful treatments of dementia on the basis of financial cost.

This motion has been signed by a total of 81 MPs.
