How long is Aricept effective for the Alzheimers victum?
My mother has been reciving this medication for the past 5 years. I’m just wondering for how long this treatment will work for her. A: There’s no way to assume how long medications will work for our patients. The important thing to look for is relapse of any acute changes that have improved with this medication. People have taken medications for years with no return of the symptoms that initially introduced them to the medication. You should alert her doctor immediately with a list of these changes and their severity. God bless!
