Hello,
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.

In my view you can try piracetam and citicoline which are nootropic medications. Unfortunately Aricept did not show any improvement in frontal lobe symptoms and not recommended.
I mustt inform you that both are prescription only medications and you need to discuss with your doctor before making any such decision.

Other than this it is required to practice yoga and meditation as they are effective in controlling few symptoms of frontal lobe damage.
Thanks and regards
