Patient's question:
The patient is a male, 18 years old. The patient's mother is mentally disabled, and the patient may have inherited this condition. The patient is unable to live independently and cannot take care of themselves. What methods or suggestions can be used to improve the situation, adjust it to make the patient more self-sufficient, and help with speech and memory? The patient can still remember things, but they forget them right after being told.Doctor's answer:
Hello, the brain cell nutrient drugs that improve intelligence are choline bitartrate, and they are not expensive. Correspondingly, drugs that can improve brain function and are suitable for patients with Alzheimer's disease, such as memantine and Exelon, can also be tried. We know that intellectual disability can cause great harm to children. If it is not treated in time or the treatment method is incorrect, its progress is very fast, and it will bring great harm to the child. Therefore, parents should pay more attention to the child's condition and take them for treatment in time.
