Has anyone had a bad reaction to a medication?

I had a bad reaction to Amantadine 2 years ago. After submitting a question about dystonia, two people responded as to how much Amantadine helped them. Since my PD is worse since then, I am a little tempted to try it again, but also very leery about trying it again. Has anyone had a bad reaction to a med that they tried again at a later date?

I've been on Amantadine for about 10 years or more and haven't had any problems, but we are all different. I took l-dopa for about a month and almost went crazy. I was thinking about trying it again, but just can't bring myself to do it, so I know what you're going through. Maybe it would help you to decide if you researched it for yourself. If you google it there is a lot of information about it. Blessings.
