I'm trying 2find out if Rimantadine is a proven treatment 4 p.d? My dr. put me in hospt. 2 c if can help my dysk. . I take amantadine .Not
working as well anymore. 250mg. in am,and 100mg. in pm. But when I was in hosp. they only had enough 4 1 dosing of 200mg. When it kicked in my dysk. was 2x worse. Then my dr. got bzy and the meds. were all but forgotten. So he wrote me a script. to go home with, to try it by mysef. Should I be concerned

Feedback please on ropinerole (Requip), benefits/issues when removed.
., 5/day 25/100, now 7/day; plus azilect,
amantadine
, before and since. Eliminating Requip completely has been unsuccessful. Now have mood swings, low energy, increased off time, diabetes-like symptoms; healthcare provider says blood sugar, thyroid are fine according to a blood test.

After over ten years only cardopa- leva dopa in extended release plus short acting doses are doing some good. Any good ideas for rigidity?
Comtan,
amantadine
, mirapex, azilect psych/ side effects now terrifying. Lower body rigiidity is challenging mobility without a wheelchair.

Fatigue
I have been prescribed
Amantadine
for fatigue which I don't find effective and leaves me feeling heavy. I stopped taking this. What medications are you on and what is your experience?

Sharyn Update - PSP
The neurologist said "Lets get off it and try
Amantadine
" we agreed. So we gradually reduced the amount of Carba/Leva to zero over a week. Surprise! Shock! Sharyn went totally bad. She went from being somewhat stable to hardly being able to stand and walk.

Is it me? or does everyone with PD ride this rollercoaster daily?
What I'm on: stalevo (4*125 in the morning, 4x100 afternoon - paced every two hours) Azilect (1 in the morning),
Amantadine
(2 in the morning 1 at lunch). Is this hellish seesaw normal for pders? Are the sweats and nausea side effects of the stalevo?

AMANTADINE, ANYONE HAD EXPERIENCE WITH IT POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE?
He is suggesting we try
Amantadine
which is to help with rigidity and motion he says. I've read the side effects which as most drugs are scarry. Just looking for someone who tried it and has comments about it.

Does anyone have hallucinations from their PD meds.
I take requip 2/3 x, sinemet 4 x,
amantadine
3 x, and 2 clonazepan at bedtime. Most of my hallucinations are of people that have passed. It kind of scares me from time to time. It doesn't happen all the time maybe once or twice a week.

It pays to price check prescription costs!! This website is a wonderful help!!
I asked the pharmacist if we were to transfer Chris'
Amantadine
prescription to CVS, would they honor that coupon. The very nice pharmacy lady put it all into the computer and said, "Yes, that coupon will work, it'll be $42.86 per month.

Does anyone wake in the night unable to move?
More recently I have had to come off
Amantadine
due to difficult s/e. Now I find with Sinemet acting as a mono therapy I am feeling much more disabled. Any thoughts out there?

How much levodopa do you take?
I have been taking 300 mg of
Amantadine
but it led to the blotchy skin condition Livedo Reticulasis, urination difficulties and other disagreeable side effects.
Amantadine
did help me to cope better with pd and stopping has necessitated increasing the amount of Sinemet I take to cope.

Has anyone tried Rimantadine?
This Rimantandine is similar to
Amantadine
without the major side effects-according to US pd blogsters who have used it. Both drugs have been around for over forty years so you would have thought it would be used widely in the UK if Rimantadine was safer. Puzzling!

Anyone trying LDN or interested in it?
My meds daily have been for a while: Sinemet Plus 750mg CR 200mg,
Amantadine
3x100mg, Zelapar 1.25 mg. I am not allowed dopamine agonists due to horrendous side effects of dopamine agonists. I was dx about twelve years ago. So this is the background to me starting LDN.
