What are Dementia and its symptoms?
Dementia is a term used for a group of symptoms arising from various disorders affecting the brain. The primary symptoms of dementia include memory loss and a gradual decrease in the ability to think that is severe enough to interfere with daily life. The other symptoms of dementia include emotional problems, and difficulties in communication, finding words, planning, and solving problems. There is also a change in personality, irritability, anxiety, depression, confusion, hallucinations, social withdrawal, and disorientation. In the early stages of dementia, the person is afflicted by symptoms that are noticeable by those around him. These symptoms cause trouble in daily routine, but the patient is still able to take care of himself. In the later stages of dementia, the patient is unable to take care of himself and needs assistance and supervision most of the time.
Causes of Dementia
Dementia mostly arises from damaged nerve cells in the brain. Persons above 65 years of age and those with a family history of dementia are at a higher risk of developing dementia. Among the various causes of dementia, the most common cause is Alzheimer’s disease, which accounts for about 60 -70% of the total cases of dementia. Another major reason for dementia is damage to the blood vessels in the brain. This type of dementia is known as vascular dementia. Other disorders linked to dementia include Huntington’s disease, Creutzfeldt – Jakob disease, Lyme disease, and Parkinson’s disease. Deficiency in vitamin B12, thyroid problems, poisoning with heavy metals like lead, and brain tumors may also cause dementia.
Best Homeopathic Remedies for Dementia
1. Anacardium Orientale – A Top Homeopathic Medicine for Dementia
Anacardium Orientale is among the best homeopathic remedies for dementia. Patients needing Anacardium Orientale have impaired memory and marked forgetfulness. The patient suddenly forgets the names of those around and also forgets things he has recently seen. Forgetfulness makes the person low spirited. There is also a marked absent mindedness and a deficiency of ideas. Homeopathy also uses Anacardium Orientale for the treatment of Alzheimer’s.
2. Baryta Carb – A Homeopathic Remedy for Senile Dementia
Baryta Carb is an excellent homeopathic remedy for senile dementia. In such cases, there is progressing mental weakness. There is forgetfulness while speaking and the mind seems clouded. The patient tends to forget the words that he is about to speak. There is a loss of memory, and when the patient tries to recollect past events, he is unable to do so. Baryta Carb works well for the treatment of dementia in the elderly who may have lost mental function after a stroke.
3. Cannabis Indica – Homeopathic Medicine for Dementia with Difficulty in Communication
Cannabis Indica is one of the best homeopathic remedies for dementia in cases where there is difficulty in communication. Cannabis Indica is helpful where a person becomes extremely forgetful while communicating. He forgets the last words spoken by him as well as what he is about to say. He begins to speak a sentence and then suddenly loses the thread of conversation. While writing too, the patient forgets what he intends to write. The mind is foggy, and there is an inability to recall past events. Difficulty in focusing is also experienced.
4. Medorrhinum – Homeopathic Medicine for Dementia Where the Patient Forgets Names and Words
Medorrhinum is a suitable homeopathic medicine for dementia where the person forgets names and words. The main symptom that points to the use of Medorrhinum is forgetting the names of friends and familiar people. The patient may not even remember their own name. There is also forgetfulness while writing, both regarding the words that are to be written as well as their spelling. While speaking, the person may forget the appropriate words. During a conversation, the patient may forget what he was asked; and the question has to be repeated. Along with the above symptoms, there are severe mood changes as well. Happiness alternates with sadness. There is also marked irritability over small things.
5. Graphites Naturalis – Homeopathic Medicine for Dementia when Indifference Accompanies Memory Loss
Graphites Naturalis is one of the best homeopathic remedies for dementia in cases where indifference accompanies memory loss. The person forgets recent events but remembers past events that occurred at a young age. There is indifference to everything and everybody. Along with this, the patient may be obstinate and moody. Dullness and anxiety, mostly in the mornings, also occur.
6. Kali Phos – A Useful Homeopathic Medicine for Dementia when Prostration Accompanies Memory Loss
Kali Phos is an effective homeopathic medicine for dementia. The main symptom pointing towards the use of Kali Phos is memory loss accompanied by tiredness. There is exhaustion on both mental and physical levels. In such cases, the patient doesn’t recognize his surroundings and is not inclined to speak with others. Sometimes, gloominess, depression, nervousness, and anxiety are also present.
My Husband has Dementia, LBD .
He is 72. He has good days & bad days.
He gets frustrated when he starts a sentence, but cannot put the right words together. I generally know what he is talking about so I can help him finish. He knows what he wants, difficulty comes when he gets anxious!
Would love your input & advise for healthiest treatment
Yes, Yes! I will be 69 on the first of May. Looking back I did not see what was coming, but now it is obvious to me and to those around me. My mother had the same problem…but I did not know what to do. I’m grieving for myself now. I cannot walk from one room to another with out forgetting why. The people I work with are constantly telling me I am repeating myself. I AM AFRAID I WILL GET WORSE. My current solution is to intensely focus and repeat myself. It only works part of the time. I am getting more and more depressed with time. Otherwise I am in very good health: I rarely have the need see a doctor. I am female with hardly any other physical problems. I do not take ANY drugs (not even aspirin.) But know I am crying for my own sanity. I am my mothers’ daughter… My father, also deceased, spent his last years sitting in front of a television and constantly changing channels. I used to read a lot, but the frustration of having to read slower to understand what I am reading is frustrating. I am too young to give up on life!

I read the above article at 4:00am this morning and item 6 (Kali Phos) really resonated as a remedy for my 82 year old mother who is dealing with vascular dementia for the past 6 years. Her memory, fatigue, and depression issue were leading me to fear the worst. I gave her a single dose of ……Kali Phos 30……. this morning and her condition improved dramatically.
My question is related to potency, and dosage frequency.
Please guide me with respect to whether this is an appropriate potent and if so what is the dosage frequency you would recommend.
Thanks in Advance.
