Preventing neurotoxicity involves minimizing exposure to known neurotoxic agents and implementing safety measures in environments where exposure is likely. Treatment strategies focus on mitigating damage and promoting recovery, including:
Chelation therapy: Used to remove heavy metals from the body. Antioxidants: Compounds that reduce oxidative stress and protect neurons. Neurotrophic factors: Proteins that support neuron survival and growth. Anti-inflammatory drugs: Medications that reduce inflammation and glial activation. Rehabilitation therapies: Physical, occupational, and cognitive therapies to improve function.
