Make Dementia Your B*tch!

Episode 34: Taking the Mystery Out of Common Dementia Meds: Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors and Memantine

Listen Later

People living with dementia are prescribed different medications along the dementia journey. Two categories of medications are commonly prescribed at the beginning and middle of the journey: acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (like Aricept) and memantine. In this episode, I explain how these medications work, when they are usually prescribed, and if (or when) they can be stopped.
