Behavioral modification sounds great. But tell that to my mother in law who is now suffering from major anxiety and depression herself due to her husbands dementia. The only solution was medication sadly because there was no way in hell we could have resolved anything at this stage in life with his aggresion.He was always a difficult man and we've never really told him he has alzheimers/dementia. He just thinks his memory is failing. On the upside, in addition to donepezil, quetiapine has kept him at home and more tollerable but this disease steals lives. My mother in law is now on anti-anxiety and depression meds and as their primary caretaker, my life has been turned upside down.

Thank you so much for the explanation of how the meds work. Now I can use the pac-man example when explaining donepezil to family and friends. Great video!

[Ururowndoc]

[sommmeguy]

So the side effects of memetine are the same as the symptoms of the disease? How are we to know if it is helping or hindering?

It is an appalling news to my family after my granddad was diagnosed with dementia. It is even more miserable to know drugs can't help recover his cognitive functions.
