The emergence of NAP as a treatment option has been a glimmer of hope for Alzheimer’s disease patients. But just like other drugs for AD, NAP has its own limitations.

In this chapter you will learn about:

  • The effect of NAP on Amyloid beta proteins.
  • Preference of NAP for certain tau isoforms
  • The future use of NAP in diseases and disorders other than AD.
