What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Lower Leg While On Donepezil And Namenda?

Hello, my mom is 70 years old and she was diagnosed with early dementia this year, she is taking Donepezil and Namenda. She was also diagnosed with Aortic Stenosis Low-Flow a few years ago. She is stable so far. 5 day ago she was complaining for 2 days about cramps, then they stopped, now she is saying that she feels her lower left leg is tingling. I just measured her blood pressure and it was 93/56 and her heart rate was 56bpm. She looks normal, but I just wonder if I should be concerned? Thank you, Dalila

Hi,

* Unilateral leg tingling is not associated with any drug intake, it should be always both sides if so. So you have to discuss for the rest neurological alterations with her treating neurologist.

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