Unlike prescription drugs from doctors, supplements have few side effects.
(The "Kono Method" is promoted on the grounds that it is effective in reducing the progression of the disease and makes family care easier.
The reason why supplements are said to be ineffective is because the large molecules that make up the ingredients do not pass through the blood-brain barrier, which blocks the entrance to the brain, preventing drugs from entering the brain. This is the reason why it is effective in petri dishes and animal experiments but not in humans. There are some exceptions, though.
Most of the domestic manufacturers are ripping off their products, so they import them overseas.
You can import from
iHerb
http://jp.iherb.com/
Sapmart USA
https://www.supmart.com/
Saplinks
http://www.suplinx.com/shop/category/category.aspx
etc. The cheapest is iHerb.
Some of them are cheaper to buy on Amazon.
If you can't get medicine from your doctor, you can buy it through a private importer. Japan's medical and psychiatric care is 10 to 20 years behind that of other countries. If you wait for domestic pharmaceutical manufacturers to release their products, it will be too late. Self-responsibility.
Felgard
Felgard F 60 sachets/160mg/5500yen
http://www2.enekoshop.jp/shop/glovia/item_detail?category_id=516322&item_id=2286485
Supplement promoted by the Kouno method, made from ferulic acid. Expensive. You can only buy it here. The absorption rate seems to be different.
Felgard LA (80mg ferulic acid, 100mg garden angelica)
Felgard 100M (80mg of ferulic acid, 20mg of garden angelica)
Ferguard B (Ferulic acid 80mg, Bacopa monniera 100mg)
Felgard F (160mg ferulic acid)
For people who are "highly excited" such as Levy and frontotemporal, choose Felgard F, which does not contain garden angelica. Garden angelica has a stimulating effect. Felgard B may also be good.
Ferulic acid and Bacopa monniera can be found at iHerb.
Also, fake products are sold on Amazon (Fergod), and the ingredients are said to be the same, but I have never tried them.
I have not been able to buy Garden Angelica by itself, even through import. They used to sell individual tablets, but not anymore. Could it be a patent here?

Merislon
120mg/140 tablets - about 2400 yen
A drug for dizziness. May improve blood flow to the brain and improve memory.
Drugs (generic name: betahistine mesylate) Generics include Zevert12SR.
Pletal
100mg / 60 tablets - about 3,000 yen
A drug to prevent cerebral infarction. Inhibits progression of dementia.
Pharmaceuticals (also known as cilostazol) Recommended by the Kono Method.
Aspirin
300mg / 30 tablets ～500yen
Prevention of dementia.
Antipyretic and analgesic. Millions of Americans take it to prevent heart disease, but it is also believed to be effective against dementia. As it is a low-dose aspirin, the 300mg dose should be divided into half tablets.
Gastrointestinal medicines are supposed to help with mental stability, and I'll use one of these.
Right now I'm using Taisho Kampo Gastrointestinal Medicine.
Pharmaceuticals are at your own risk. These three are not psychotropic drugs, though, so I had no side effects.
As for these supplements and the pharmaceuticals I imported.
I took them for almost 10 years for juvenile dementia (frontotemporal), and there was no discernible effect.
However, I think there was an effect of prolonging my life over a period of 10 years, and there may be an effect of reducing the progression of the disease. It may work depending on the symptoms.
