Abstract
The invention is based on the discovery that rho kinase inhibitors, particularly fasudil can be used to treat agitation/anxiety in dementia patients, particularly Alzheimer's disease patients. Fasudil treatment of Alzheimer's patients resulted in improvements in agitation that are orders of magnitude to that observed with other potential therapeutic agents.
