Memantine (Namenda) Please Help!!!

[odettebs]

I just recently found your forum and am so glad to find others to talk to.
I am a new caregiver who is frankly over her head and out of her mind. My
mother suffers from frontotemporal dementia. Her doctor recently
prescribed Namenda. She has been on it for a week and is showing signs of
severe depression and lots of pain in her hips and legs. All of these are
new symptoms. He has had us stop giving her the medication to see if this
is the cause of these symptoms, but the timing is unmistakable in my mind.
It's so hard to know what to do!

It could have nothing to do with the Namenda. It's highly
possible that it could be caused by the brain problem, not the
drug.

It could be the drug or it could be a coincidence. If the symptoms are side
effects of the drug, they'll probably stop fairly soon after stopping the drug.
If they don't stop, maybe they're not being caused by the drug. I'd call her
doctor.
