What Causes Short Term Memory Loss While On Dicyclomine?

I have been taking Dicyclomine for about 2 months and notice a change in my short term memory loss. I start toward a room and forget when I get there why did I come in here ? I wondered if this medicine is the cause or is Dementia setting in on me. I m 80 NOW I see there is a cost for you to answer. I thought it was FREE. YOU can forget it, I ll ask my personal Phy. when I visit him. I DO NOT WISH TO PAY A PENNY.

Hello,

It is not related to dicyclomine.

If symptoms persist, better to consult a neurologist and plan for an MRI brain to rule out possible intracranial (inside the brain) causes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
