Linda - clozapine has been the main drug used for PD-related hallucinations etc.  Zyprexa, which came out about a year ago, has worked well for some list folks and been disastrous for others (kinda like mirapex, huh?).  Zyprexa has the advantage over clozaril of not requiring frequent blood tests.  On the other hand, if your Dad's going to be at home, I believe Medicare will pay someone to come to the home to do the blood tests ... and who's to stop 'em from doing a coupla other things while they're there :-)?  At the very least, your mom would have someone to confer with.  Mary Rack
