Because of severe swallowing problems my Dad has now not had his Aricept for about a week. I can see changes for the worse in his condition although I am not sure if these are due to not taking Aricept or other factors. Has anyone got experience of missing Aricept for a while then starting it again? Did it soon start to improve things? Also has anyone had experience of different routes for administering Aricept or having to change medication because it can't be given by mouth? Its not just that he can't swallow tablets - liquids won't go down either. Zan
