He goes to an adult day care center two days a week but has become a problem for them as he is so worried about all these things he thinks he has to do - such as sign papers, go for an interview, etc. He also is constantly looking for me and I had to go to the center and pick him up early one day this week as he was so anxious. He's been on Ativan which doesn't help that much and was on Risparadone for a week but it made him more agitated. Has anyone dealt with this problem? I really need some input - I'm feeling overwhelmed.
It is so true how medications work so different on each dementia person. My Mom had similar symptoms as your husband with panic attacks. She tried several drugs and risperdone works wonders for her. So return to Dr let them know it's not working and try something else..
Good luck! If you can control several of his symptoms you can relax a little..
