Spanish neurology consensus on appropriate use of anti-amyloid antibodies in Alzheimer disease

Radiology practice guidelines (PubMed)May 26

57 Spanish neurology experts reach high consensus on anti-amyloid antibody use in Alzheimer disease—covering patient selection, ARIA monitoring, and treatment suspension—but flag equity of access and resource allocation as critical implementation hurdles.

  • Consensus statement from 57 members of the Spanish Society of Neurology's Behavioural Neurology and Dementia Study Group; developed January–September 2025 following European Commission approval of two anti-amyloid monoclonal antibodies.
  • Prescribing centre requirements and treatment suspension criteria generated the most debate among participants; recommendations are intended to complement regulator indications, not replace them.
  • Limitation: national consensus only (Spain), expert opinion–based rather than derived from new clinical trial data; document explicitly flags the need for updates as evidence and approvals evolve.
