Does Aricept Cause Quivering In The Chin And Rapid Breathing?
My 88 yr old mother just recently developed a quivering chin and sometimes fast breathing along with that. She has dimentia which seems to have gotten worse rapidly since my father passed away. the doctor recently put her on aricept. Could the aricept cause this or could it be related to the dimentia?
