Abstract
The invention is based on the discovery that rho kinase inhibitors can be used to treat certain dementia-associated wandering. The inventive methods relate to the use of rho kinase inhibitors in the treatment of patients with cortical dementia-associated wandering. Preferred aspects of the invention contemplate treating wandering due to cortical vascular dementia and wandering due to dementia where the patient is a persistent wanderer and/or where the patient does not display a wayfinding defect.
