Find Care & Housing
My mother was given Risperidone and it worked miracles for her. Before Risperiodone, she had horrible anxiety, couldn't walk, cried all the time and could not have a conversation with you. When she started taking it, it was as if a switch was turned on and we had some of her back again. She had a very low dose. I knew all the warnings with it, but given the quality of life she was having, I felt the risks were worth it. After all, dementia has no positives so this was a tiny light for her and us. It didn't work for long though. After a few months, it wasn't as effective. I think you just have to try what there is out there and see what happens.
