This drug is the new time release form of Amantadine. If you put that into the search engine you should find quite a bit of information. I think quite a few of us take amantadine without any problems.

I just started amandatine last week , 100mg/day for tremor but I don't see any results except it makes me dizzy. After how much time I should see results? I'm taking it with food.
