Hi, my mother also suffered from dementia and from mine experience all medications which you can find in this moment are not good enough. Aricept, Cognex, Exelon and Reminil are three medications which are increasing level of acetyl-holine in the brain and improving cellular communication. These medications only made temporary improvement.
Also I heard there is new medication called Nemanda which would stabilize patients memory but I didn't five it to my mother yet.
