Re: Migraines and question on Amantadine

        Edith has tremor=type PD and began amantadine 100mg twice daily -
almost after 24 hours she suffered side effects (nausea, depression,
fatigue).  She stopped the drug and recovered after several days.  Then
re-started amantadine LIQUID (50 MG/TSP) - 1/2 tsp and gradually (over
several weeks) built up the dose to her present level without adverse
incident.  She now takes 100mg capsule twice daily plus Eldepryl 5 mg
daily.  It has been of moderate help for her tremor.    Ralph
