Hello,

Dementia due to many causes like age related or Alzheimers disease or loue body dementia or Multisystemic atrophy or b12 or folic acid deficiency or multi-infract dementia etc. But treatment depends upon the type of dementia. many drugs are there for dementia like rivastigmine, galantamine and donezepil but these drugs can be used by your doctor advice only. Do please consult neurophysician near by and consult him he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
