Fran, i have taken amantadine at two periods during my long bout with Parkinsons. Both times successfully until the side effects became too intrusive. The first time 16 years ago, the second time two years ago - with mirapex - and it was so successful that i managed to avert having DBS surgery! Howwever both times i was taking sinamet - which i have been taking now for 18 years. if you want any more details contact me off list or by phone hilary blue 51 33 24 Fran Landes wrote: > > Is anyone who has been diagnosed a year ago taking Amantadine in combination > with Mirapex?
