See all 660 questions about Alzheimer's and Other Dementias is not working, because Exelon does not stop progression of Alzheimer's disease just delays it. Therefore, if your mother gets worse, it would be a mistake to think that Exelon is not working any more and stop it, because that may lead to faster progression.

UPDATE: Hubby, you need to find another doctor. Mirtazepine is a medication to treat depression, not dementia. However, the problem your wife has could be due to other condition than Alzheimer's disease. She needs to be properly examined and diagnosed. There are other medications that could help her if she has Alzheimer's disease.
