I found the name of the drug, LEQUEMBI. It is very expensive but most will be covered by Medicare. AND, it comes with a Black Box warning. That means that it comes with some serious, or fatal side effects.

Do you think you might have your husband try it, @mentonette ?

I don't think my husband can tolerate the regimen. On the other hand, will I be able to handle the progression to full blown Alzheimers?
