Can I Buy Amantadine Online?

Amantadine hydrochloride requires a prescription to be obtained at a pharmacy in the United States. As a result, amantadine OTC is not available and one cannot simply buy amantadine online as the initial step to getting an amantadine prescription is consulting a medical provider. People who might need an amantadine prescription, however, can use Push Health to connect with an online medical provider who can prescribe amantadine capsules, including amantadine HCl 100 mg medication, when appropriate to do so.

Amantadine - Side Effects

Amantadine medication use can cause side effects such as dizziness, dry mouth, constipation, orthostatic hypotension and hallucinations but many people tolerate amantadine use well. Because of possible adverse reactions and because amantadine medication can interact with other medications when used, it is recommended that patients discuss potential side effects with a qualified medical provider and pharmacist before using the medication. Amantadine and alcohol should not be used together. Amantadine HCl can also cause sleepiness and patients should avoid operating machinery while taking the medication. Amantadine use can exacerbate underlying mood disorders. People with a known allergy to amantadine or branded versions of the medication should avoid using amantadine prescription medication.
