Clinical trials using adhesive patches for administration of dementia meds?

Is anyone aware of any clinical trials using adhesive patches for dementia medicine administration? Even with frequent reminders, mom forgets to take meds. Adhesive patch(es) would be helpful in this situation.

I would look at these website for list of clinical trials:

US DEPT of Health & Human Services/ National Institute on Aging website for clinical trials:
www.nia.nih.gov/alzheimers/clinical-trials

alz.org/research/clinical_trials/find_clinical_trials_trialmatch.asp

You might want to talk to your pharmacist and ask if they know of any medication patches for dementia.
