While there is no cure for LBD, some treatments may temporarily alleviate symptoms. For example, those with LBD can work with a speech therapist who can help with issues linked to language or trouble swallowing, or a physical therapist to help with movement issues. Cholinesterase inhibitors may treat symptoms related to cognitive issues. While the medication was developed to help those with Alzheimer’s, the association says research has found the medication may help those with LBD even more. In addition, they suggest a drug called levodopa that’s typically given to Parkinson’s patients may help treat movement problems, though side effects may not be worth taking this medication.
