Suggest Treatment For Persistent Tremors When Diagnosed With Parkinson's Disease
Possibility of dose related side effects
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
The symptoms of parkinsons disease increase with time and less responsive to treatment.
Amantadine is usually given for tremors in parkinsons disease but may aggravate tremors in some.
Another possibility is on and off phenomenon or peak dose dyskinesia.
As you are taking higher doses you need to time it well.
Liquid levodopa formulation can be used for drug related side effects.
You can also be in regular follow up of the treating neurologist for dose adjustment.
Amantadine can be stopped to look for any relief.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back to me for further queries.
