With the increasing life expectancy and ageing population in Singapore, we are likely to see more patients with dementia seeking help from their primary care clinicians. Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists for dementia management can be costly given their modest efficacy, and it is important to discuss the risks and benefits with patients before a shared decision is made. Non-pharmacological management such as regular structured routine, good sleep hygiene, reminiscence and other activities are also useful in improving the well-being of dementia patients. Caregivers and family members can be advised on what to watch out for to keep patients safe at home and outdoors, as dementia patients have poor safety awareness. The primary care clinician can manage depression, if present, and refer the patient to memory clinics or appropriate specialist clinics for further assessment when indicated.
