My Mom was given Seroquel today to help control her behavior. She has Dimentia and is a real meanie most of the time. This is teh first meds she has had to take for her behavior. I do not know if it will help the mood swings at all.
Has anyone had any expierence with this drug and Dimentia?
Anyone else notice this side effect?
Best wishes to your mother, and to you. (And also to the doctor who is managing Mother's use of this drug.)
I am glad you had sucess with this drug and are able to enjoy the quality time with your husband. I hope my Mom has teh same results.
Best to you...
It is amazingly wonderful for some people with dementia. (It is a miracle for my husband.) It is neutral, not having much impact for some people with dementia. It makes matters worse for some people with dementia.
How will you know if it is good for your Mom? Try it.
What dose is she starting on?
