Yes, amantadine is supposed to be good for sinemet induced dyskinesia, and a time-release version was recently approved for PD. You taking immediate or controlled release sinemet?

I've recently started taking Amantadine for my dyskinesia also. It does help. How many Mg do you take? I'm taking 100MG once a day and it doesn't last all day. I want to take more. About coconut oil, you have to start it gradually so your stomach doesn't react. I take lots of it - in my cooking, in my tea and coffee - no problems.
