What has anyone done for dementia elderly who cries all the time and is on PBS medicine?

Thanks for the explanation. The OP has not been back.

Public broadcasting system😉 I don't know either.

Phosphate-buffered saline (abbreviated PBS) is a buffer solution commonly used in biological research. It is a water-based salt solution containing disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium chloride and, in some formulations, potassium chloride and potassium dihydrogen phosphate.

What is PBS? I was thinking you might explain further as well as offering your location. I’ve been a working RN for 40 years and never heard the term PBS. Thanks

When I looked PBS medication it came up Australia. For the US, I don't know what that means. But, it may not matter. If this is something new it could be caused by a med or she needs something. Should call her doctor.

Problem here it looks like you are from Australia. Most of us are from the US, a few from Canada and UK.

It all comes down to the right medication. You need to talk to a neurologist and see if there is something the person can be given. Its like anxiety and its not good for a person to be this way.
