Parkinson's Clinic: What should I do if my eyes swell after eating amantadine?

Cao, a 62-year-old male patient with Parkinson's disease in Qingyang, Gansu. Cao had symptoms of Parkinson's disease two years ago, and his unilateral foot was shaking. At first, he was able to consciously control it, and then his hand was shaking, and it was getting worse. Because Cao had high blood pressure before, took antihypertensive drugs for several years, and Cao was an engineer before, and his work pressure was great, so he was not sure whether it was drug-induced or primary Parkinson's disease. In the local county hospital, the doctor said it was a neurological problem, and in the neurology department of the municipal hospital, the doctor said it was Parkinson's disease, and prescribed gemcitabine and Antan. After taking these two drugs for more than a month, Cao had problems such as swollen eyes and poor mental state. When I went to the city hospital again, the doctor replaced amantadine and Antan with Madopar. Cao didn't dare to take medicine because he was afraid of the side effects of Madopar. The patient's performance is indeed a symptom of Parkinson's disease. At present, the exact cause of Parkinson's disease is still unclear, so there is only a treatment for symptoms, but no treatment for the cause. Generally speaking, early Parkinson's disease is treated with drugs, and late Parkinson's disease is treated with surgery. The patient's symptoms are still relatively short, and there is no need for surgery. Drug treatment is enough. Take madopa first, and then adjust the medicine after any abnormality occurs.
