Does anyone have experience with Prevagen helping with confusion?

Hello - my wife is in mid stage dementia and her confusion level has gotten worse lately. It does not appear related to a UTI. A home health care aid has mentioned that Prevagen has helped some of the dementia patients she has worked with. I am very skeptical of this drug given their creepy commercials and the fact that the FDA has not found any scientific basis for the drug to improve memory or any other dementia symptom. I thought it was worth polling this community for real world experiences.

It turns out that it is Neuriva that contains Phosphatidyl serine. I've been taking phosphatidyl serine for around 10 years now.
I'm 82. My mind is fine other than normal old age problems. It's best to remain curious and to use your brain. My close relative has Alzheimer's and was never curious at all.
