My husband who is 76 was prescribed this medication for mixed dementia by his neurologist. She started him on a low dose of 4mg in the morning and 4 mg in the evening. So far I do not see a difference in his behavior or memory. If fact he seems more confused but it might be due to his dementia getting worse.

Has anyone taken this medication? There is not a lot of information on this drug
