PWA Health Group: memantine
Memantine is a derivative of the decades old anti-influenza drug amantadine. Memantine is used in Germany to treat Parkinson's disease, dementia in the elderly, and to speed the recovery of comatose patients. Memantine may also be useful for PWAs with HIV encephalopathy (which can mean anything including memory loss, confusion, difficulty speaking, walking, and/or concentrating).
While the root cause of neurologic problems in PWAs is different from what causes Parkinson's or dementia in the elderly, people with these problems all lose neurons, the key brain or nerve cell, in much the same way. (PWAs with encephalopathy can lose up to 20-50% of their neurons.) How does this happen? Much of what we know comes from experience in Parkinson's disease. As the theory goes, too much of certain amino acids in the brain send signals to neurons that make them self-destruct. Memantine keeps to a minimum the destructive signals that neurons receive.
