> Interesting. Aricept (donepezil) is the usual first-line choice for mild to moderate dementia, especially in Alzheimer's disease. Memantine is normally reserved for advanced Alzheimer's disease.

This neurologist prefers to start with Memantine and then add Aricept; I don't know if that's standard practice - but in 5 years of being diagnosed with brain cancer, he's been her best doctor (along with her neurosurgeons)...
