amantadine and Perceptual Disorders

amantadine has been researched along with Perceptual Disorders in 2 studies

amant: an antiviral compound consisting of an adamantane derivative chemically linked to a water-solube polyanioic matrix; structure in first source

Perceptual Disorders: Cognitive disorders characterized by an impaired ability to perceive the nature of objects or concepts through use of the sense organs. These include spatial neglect syndromes, where an individual does not attend to visual, auditory, or sensory stimuli presented from one side of the body.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The resemblance of some aspects of the hemispatial neglect syndrome (hypokinesia, decreased arousal) to aspects of Parkinsonian syndromes, and the success of amantadine in treating disorders of attention, prompted a placebo-controlled, double-blind trial of amantadine, an inhibitor of the N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptor that modulates dopamine transmission, in four patients with chronic hemispatial neglect."2.73Amantadine treatment of hemispatial neglect: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study. ( Buxbaum, LJ; Coslett, HB; Ferraro, M; Gershkoff, A; Whyte, J, 2007)
"We report a patient with Parkinson's disease who developed typical room tilt illusion."1.35Room tilt illusion in Parkinson's disease: loss of spatial reference frames? ( Hayashi, R; Katsumata, Y; Mimura, M; Yamaguchi, S, 2009)
