Follow up to previous post.regarding psychotropic drugs...

An astute reader of our Facebook page commented on this post.  She wisely pointed out that to give an Alzheimer's family/caretakers the idea that there is no place for psychotropic drugs in the treatment and care of their loved one would be a "disservice"  She is exactly right and following our exchange of ideas we both agreed that psychotropic medication would not be the first choice for treatment, but rather a treatment to consider when other more conservative measures fail.  Thank you Dana.  This distinction is important!
