    Hello all, my father is an Alzheimer's patient. and unfortunately the medicine he takes makes him very aggressive, angry, incoherent and overall just not the man i know and love. Its seems the medicne made him much worse.

    I've read a few articles that show how mj is more effective then any other drug on the market with reguards to slowing down the process of alzhiemrs. Does anyone have links or advice as to what strains help?

    one was from the university of madrid spain, and it seems very postive with regaurds to plague buildup going away.

    any help would be greatly appreciated.
