Those meds do help some patients who have Alzheimer’s. We discovered just how much they help my dad when we tried to decrease them. We resumed the full doses and his behavior returned to a higher level. So, he’ll stay on them for the duration.

Other than monitoring, if the patient had something like Parkinson’s, I’m not sure how a neurologist would treat a person with dementia from Alzheimer’s or vascular disease. There really is no treatment, other than the medications, which a primary can prescribe. They can order scans, but the behavior will alert you when things are progressing. Can someone chime in if I’m missing something on this?
