[quote=Anonymous]Based on my experience personally and professionally- but please discuss with a geriatric psych or your parents pcp: They only work for a little while, then plateau, and only once… if you try them again a year later it doesn’t improve. They (aricept and namenda) are best used when you know a transition is coming - like a move to assisted living, a surgery, a move to nursing home. Those transitions often result in a sudden loss in function, and drugs help prevent that. [/quote]
