Your mother was diagnosed as Alzheimer's. Since her score is 20/30 (probably on MMSE), it must be mild dementia.

Dear Lybrate user,
Sorry to hear that your grandmother is dementing. Alzil 5 mg will be increased to 20 mg slowly over next 6-9 months. It will stop her from dementing further. It will not improve her symptoms and make her alright like last year. Qutan is not a drug for dementia. But her behaviour that disturbs you people, will be under control with Qutan.

It's important to know for what reason the medicine has been prescribed. It's mostly used for Alzheimer's disease. So, consult with the treating physician, this kind of side effects usually happen but continuation of drug is also important.

Der Dileep,

Alzheimer's disease is a progressive brain disease in which brain tissue shrink and degenerate with time and it is not treatable. Only during initial few years some symptomatic treatment may be helpful. Urine problem usually occurs gradually towards late stage of disease. It is difficult to treat. You may take terol la for some symptomatic releif of urine problem. Better take help of your neurologist.

dear friend; alzil is medication for a condition of memory loss known as dementia. Your mother must be 60 yes or more right? so the list of medications you wrote for this age is too strong plus loss of balance & uncontrolled urination suggests something far more serious than depression. Hence take her to a Psychiatrist As soon as possible as this might be an emergency & for further help; get back to me. good luck
