After a year and 8 months on 10 mg. of Aricept for AD, my mother's loss of appetite became so severe she almost refused to eat and experienced frequent gastrointestinal upsets. After stopping Aricept about 2 months ago, her appetite improves and the upsets are less frequent, however, in the last two months her memory seems to be declining rapidly and she wandered away from home in the night.
