Amantadine withdrawal symptoms

What are the adverse effects of Amantadine? Adverse effects or drug interactions in dogs or cats receiving amantadine are uncommon. It is reported that some dogs may develop agitation, vomiting, flatulence, or diarrhoea (which may be watery), particularly in the early days of amantadine therapy. Amantadine can be stopped without a withdrawal

We suggest that based on the available data, levodopa, dopamine agonists (DA), and amantadine should not be discontinued abruptly. Abrupt or sudden reduction of DA or amantadine in particular can lead to severe life-threatening withdrawal symptoms. Tapering off levodopa, COMT inhibitors, and MAO-B inhibitors may worsen motor and non-motor symptoms.

Amantadine should NOT be stopped abruptly if you have been taking it for more than four weeks. What can happen if you stop amantadine abruptly or even reduce your dose rapidly, is that you are at risk of developing serious symptoms that resemble neuroleptic malignant syndrome.

Amantadine withdrawal, either after standard therapeutic use or in the days after an acute overdose, may result in hyperthermia and rigidity (similar to neuroleptic malignant syndrome). DIAGNOSIS Is based on a history of acute ingestion or is made by noting the aforementioned constellation of symptoms and signs in a patient taking amantadine.

However, amantadine did not appear to be efficacious in subjects with less severe cocaine withdrawal symptoms. That amantadine was more efficacious in subjects with more severe cocaine withdrawal symptoms is consistent with the hypothesis that amantadine ameliorates cocaine withdrawal symptoms and may explain the varied results obtained in
