What is the best treatment to improve the executive function of the brain, to effectively articulate thoughts; after a traumatic brain injury?

NUMBER OF CHOICES: Pharmacological approaches include ritalin, nuvigil, adderall, modafanil, to enhance alertness and attention, but other approaches include rehab programs of speech therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapies, and even biofeedback. Although there is little benefit for the memory enhancing agents used in alzheimer's, and occasional pt may be helped by galantamine (galantamine hydrobromide).

Improve executive fx: Speech and language therapists and neuropsychologists often provide these services for those who have experienced traumatic brain injury. Contact the program that provided your acute treatment for referral to appropriate individuals.

Cognitive therapy: One of the most beneficial treatments is an evaluation to identify your deficits, followed by cognitive therapy, in which you will work on your areas of deficit, learn about compensation techniques, and learn exercises to maintain and improve your aspects of memory, cognition and attention. You will also be able to discuss your goals, which will help shape your therapy plan.
