Mother in law has had her first diagnosis in February and was put onto Donepezil to delay symptoms 5mg. After about a week she took a rapid downward spiral, being unable to walk and hold things, although her memory seemed to improve .Since she has had good days and bad, she has been back to the memory clinic and has been given the higher mg of Donepezil and here we are just over a week later with another sudden downward spiral. Has anyone else had this experience with a loved one after being medicated ? Can I also ask, she is being given this drug on morning with other tablets wondering what the benefits are from changing it to an evening.
