Monique and I visited her neurologist yesterday.
Did a few tests et al and at the end reviewed Monique's medications and put her on EBIXA - memantine in addition to Aricept. I get the feeling this is a fairly powerful drug and Monique has to build up to it over a period of 4 weeks.
According to the (French) neurologist this treatment has only been available for the last year but is an excellent addition to Aricept.
Anybody know anything about this 'new' drug which apparently has no side effects?
regards
Michael
