The only thing I can say is Aricept definitely helps my mother. Is it a cure, NO!

My Dad (92) has been recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's and this is one of his medications. He is on phase two of the dosage.

I was surprised they expected improvement in his condition as I understood A. was irreversible. He is showing some improvement but conversations can still be interesting with him!
