husband calls pills buttons and ask who these are for,takes two hours to take pills. I know i am losing it but i don't know what else to do. I don't want to put the pills in pudding or applesauce, i just want him to take the pills before he has to take the next pills. he takes 16 pills a day.
Anyway, back to your Dad. Alz/dementia notwithstanding, all those pills are probably causing a general malaise. He might not be able to verbalize it, but he feels it; and is fighting.
Talk with his doctor about the side effects, and tips on how to camouflage the medications if there's no other choice.
