Medications
These medications may be used to help with the symptoms:
- Donepezil and rivastigmine —to help with cognition; may worsen motor symptoms

- Antidepressants

If you have Lewy body disease, you may be particularly sensitive to medications called neuroleptics. You may have adverse events with these medications.
