Behavioral symptoms of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) place a heavy burden on the caregivers. Although used to control symptoms, antipsychotic drugs have adverse effects that lower their ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL), and reduce their quality of life (QOL). Iwasaki et al. reported the effect of Yokukansan to behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD). Therefore, we evaluate the efficacy and safety of Yokukansan as a treatment of behavioral symptoms of FTD.
