[quote=Anonymous]A word of warning about dementia meds is that so much seems to still be unknown and the effects differ on everyone. My dad was put on something to calm him down, it had the opposite effect. For about a two week period he got up in the middle of the night and was extremely agitated, kept trying to get out of their apartment and once he did, he was running through the halls for hours. He got violent too. Their assisted living banned him from public areas. It was exhausting and excruciating for my poor mom. Finally, they got him on something else but it just seems like such a crap shoot of what works and what doesn’t. [/quote]
