Answer

Yes. Several new medications are approved for use in early dementia, and one is now also approved for use in later dementia. However, you should *always* have a thorough medical examination to determine the cause of the memory loss first.

Answer

In many cases memory loss is just old habits catching up to you. Also age can be a factor. Men/Women going through peri menopause or menopause can have slight memory losses which will come back in time. Stress can also cause memory loss. Before you jump the gun and try medications for this (always side effects with every medication) keep a journal (I do.) I've done it for years even when my memory was good. Take time out at the end of the evening to write notes down if you have had appointments to do with business, doctors appointments, etc. Also write down any dates you have coming up for appointments or special events. Give this 2 months and if you memory starts to improve (I think it will) you don't need medications.

If you should have a disease that can cause memory loss then seek out your doctors advice. Many medications can cause slight memory loss. If you have a great deal of stress in your life try to find out how you can lessen the stress. Take each problem, break it down and try the best you can to resolve it. Take up a sport, go to the gym and work out, go swimming, or jog and relieve some of that stress. Works wonders.
