Higher Dose of Amantadine

I’m pleased to report that my higher dose of Amantadine appears to be effective in alleviating the severity of my fatigue. Most thankfully, I was able to work a full day at the nursing home where I most recently started to provide psychological services.

Previously, I was prescribed Amantadine, 100 mg. BID. My neurologist recently increased my dose to 300 mg. qd. (200 mg. qam, plus 100 mg. qnoon).

It was such an overwhelming relief to not experience debilitating fatigue today. Dare I even say it? Today, I felt normal.
