Cheryl, my husband's doctor, who has extensive experience with Parkinson's Disease, started my husband on 5 mg of aricept in July. When I told him the problems that Prem was experiencing, he said that Prem now needed 'cognitive support'. Within a week, I saw a marked difference in Prem. When I reported this to the doctor, he said that while this was originally a drug for Alzheimer's, it had also become a drug of choice for some years now for Parkinson's patients with cognitive issues. Hope this helps.
