Mum has been started on 2.5mg at night, and has only been on it for 5 nights.
I'm sure shes a bit more confused and her memory has been somewhat more impaired but she has also been quite anxious about her grandson (my son) going into hospital for knee surgery. There was a complication, so he had to go back into surgery and stay in another night.
Hes back home and doing well, so hopefully things should settle down with Mum.

If not is it likely the Donepezil?
There are no UTI symptoms, which Mum has managed to recognise in the past, telling me she was going to the bathroom a lot.

Hi. This happened with my Mum as well and the doctor took her off of it. I would speak to her gp.
