Study Shows Brain Injury Recovery Slowed by Common Drugs

A recent study shows that a common drug used to treat conditions such as bladder problems, depression, and insomnia may hinder recovery from brain injuries.  The study was done at the University of East Anglia in the UK, and researchers suggest older individuals currently taking anticholinergic medication experience slower recovery than normal.

Head injuries can be minor or traumatic, and can also be very easy to spot physically.  Brain injuries are commonly caused by car accidents, and can be life changing.  If you’re currently taking anticholinergic medication and have been in a car accident, it’s important for you to get checked out immediately.

Damages for head injuries caused by car accidents can be immense, so don’t hesitate to contact us if you’re suffering.
