[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 20078, member: 1697"] when we had elderly patients in the nursing home who had alzheimers or dementias, and they would get all wired and wound up, respirdal was the medication we used most often for a "quick get them calm" medication for the moment. We gave one dose at the time we needed them to calm down and we saw result in minutes. (for the record, we only gave it to people who had an order for the use of it prn) BUT for some people, it is NOT effective and for some people it makes them act out worse. even "start low go slow" you should not see an increase in undesireable behaviors.
