Behavioral improvements in Dimebon-treated patients resulted in a significant decrease in caregiver distress at six months and at one year compared to the distress of caregivers of placebo-treated patients. Further, after six months, caregivers of Dimebon-treated patients saved approximately one hour per day assisting patients with activities of daily living compared to caregivers of placebo-treated patients.
