Well, if I had a dollar for every time I saw Ambien on a dementia exam question, I'd be a rich person. Seriously, who comes up with these answer choices? Aricept all the way!

Hmm, this one's a bit tricky. I'm pretty sure Aricept is the correct answer, but I'm curious to see what the other candidates think. Maybe one of them has some insider knowledge I'm missing.

Aricept is definitely the answer here. It's the go-to medication for treating Alzheimer's dementia. I can't believe they would even include Ambien as an option - that's for insomnia, not dementia!
