reduce heart rate. However, prolonged use has been associated with cognitive decline, including memory loss and slower processing speeds. Some studies suggest that beta-blockers may reduce blood flow to the brain, contributing to cognitive impairment over time.
Examples: Metoprolol, Propranolol, Atenolol
2. Second-Generation Antihistamines
Used for: Allergies, hay fever, skin rashes
Second-generation antihistamines are widely used to treat allergies, but research indicates they may block acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter crucial for memory and learning. Long-term use has been linked to slower reaction times and memory decline.
Examples: Loratadine, Cetirizine, Fexofenadine
