There is no cure nor treatment that stops or slows DLB. Treatment is aimed at relieving symptoms and delaying loss of mental abilities for as long as possible.

Medical care should focus on optimizing the individual’s health, safety, and quality of life while helping family members cope with the many challenges of caring for a loved one with DLB.
