I forgot to mention, riluzole is a glutamate antagonist. Glutamate is thought to be neurotoxic, but the only antagonist now in use for PD is amantadine (Symmetrel) which is a rather weak one. Others are stronger but have nasty side effects, and riluzole may be the best of a bad lot. Cheers, -- J. R. Bruman (818) 789-3694 3527 Cody Road Sherman Oaks, CA 91403-5013
