In reply to IF YOU HAVE MEMORY LOSS FROM MEDICATION -HELP, posted by jjsresearch on May 7, 2003, at 15:45:16
My mother 55, has been taking Lithium, Depakote, and Thioridazine for Bipolar Disorder. She experiences short term memory loss, mild/moderate cognitive imparment (word/name confusion). It is difficult to say if this is actually dammage, or if they are ongoing side effects of the drugs.
These drugs are designed to slow the mind down.
Any other questions ??
