lewy body dementia
"Within a week of starting on 1/2 5 mg pill, Aricept generic, my spouse's verbalization improved to the point where others noticed and volunteered a positive comment.  Now on the full 5 mg pill per day, there are no side effects.  And the psychoses have become fewer, shorter lasting, and less bizarre.  The long and short term memory, though, has neither improved nor worsened.  And my spouse has virtually no spatial or temporal awareness, which is no better or worse than before the meds."
