Exelon Patches for loss of memory

Hi all, my dad went to hospital and had a pyschological testing...the doctor then called us and said that my dad has loss of memory and that he should take Exelon patches....I dont konw what to do? Does this mean he has dementia? Anyone konow of Exelon patches?

My husband has them, Parkinson’s and dementia, he started with 9.5 patches, they brought him back to life, then as the dementia increased he was put on 13.3 strength. Delays problems but does not stop them.

I would from my observation recommend.

I suggest reading the following study with Parkinson's and cognitive impairment:

impairment in Parkinson’s disease

To late for us, my husband has been told he is now terminal with skin cancer, gone rogue.

Tamarisk, If conventional treatments fail you may need to discuss with his doctors the possibility of alternative treatments such as high oral doses of a highly Bioavailable form of Curcumin and Topical Curcumin-based cream application. Studies with Curcumin are preliminary so there is no guarantee that it will slow down the disease.

Sorry i couldnt understand, do exelon patches carry the risk of skin cancer?

[Greenday in reply to Hidden]

Possibly irrelevant. The former reply refers not to a PD condition, but to the skin cancer condition of Tamarisk's husband,

Thank you so much for this

Does your father have tremors?

[Tamarisk in reply to Hidden]

No Steff123, my husband has just been told he is terminal with skin cancer that as now invaded the lymph tissues, I am told that people with Parkinsons are more prone to suffering skin cancer but do not know how true this is.

Can you please tell me how I can use the patches? Dads nurolgist says dad should use it. But dad has had chemo treatment for a cancer. I wonder if dad can tolerate it? Do I stick the patch and then take it off at night? How do I use it?
