Aging is an inevitable process in human development, which follows a time course that can be delayed, or hastened, by lifestyles, diseases and events. The factors that affect the aging process can be delayed, but not prevented. This paper evaluates the neurochemical changes in the aging process and their relevance in the modality of elderly medication. For clarity and understanding of the relevant neurobiochemical process and effects, the neuroanatomical, physiological, and neurobehavioral changes are reviewed as they relate to medication in the elderly.
衰老是人类发展中不可避免的过程,其遵循的时间进程会受到生活方式、疾病和事件的影响而被延缓或加速。影响衰老过程的因素可以被延缓,但无法被阻止。本文评估了衰老过程中的神经化学变化及其与老年用药方式的相关性。为了清晰理解相关的神经生化过程及影响,我们将回顾与老年人用药相关的神经解剖学、生理学和神经行为学变化。
