My Wife Has Alzheimer's, Level 4-5. She Has Sundown Syndrome
My wife has Alzheimer's, level 4-5. She has sundown syndrome many, but not all of the time. At that time she doesn't know where she is, packs up clothes and stuff for an imaginary trip "home." I would like to have something (med) that would relieve anxiety. Is Risperidone approprite for this? Sounds like it doesn't fit and has undesirable side effects. Thanks. Wilbur Shults.
