Alzheimer’s disease is the leading neurodegenerative disorder. It is notorious for imposing an immense burden on the community and health care system. In this article, we briefly elucidate the pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease along with its rates. Then we described the current drug treatments for it followed by the obstacle created by the blood-brain barrier to transfer these drugs in an effective concentration to the brain. Finally, we discussed how focused ultrasound microbubble therapy could be the best solution to solve the problem created by the blood-brain barrier.
