My father is 54 year old. He suffered from cancer and took chemotherapy in 1994. After taking chemotherapy he was well but after 10/15 year he started to forget small things like where he put the key, files etc. He was tensed that he has suffering from memoryloss so we took him to a local neurologist and he gave some medicine( unistar 75, elcafort, donetaz SR 11.5 etc. My father has been taking these medicine for last 1.5 years but after taking the medicins he started to forget major things.

Neurologist,  's  Response
Hello!

My name is Dr. Aida and I am glad to attend you on Healthcaremagic!

Regarding your concern, I would recommend stoppint Unistar, which may trigger memory problems.
Donetaz is the main drug to help improve memory problems.
Unfortunately, dementia is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, and there is no cure. All the drugs are used to improve or slow the progression of the disease.
You should discuss with his neurologist on the above issues.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards!
