Moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease usually results in impaired ability to drive and use machines. Also, memantine has a slight to moderate effect on the rate of human reaction, therefore outpatients should be warned to take extra care when driving vehicles or operating equipment.

Experience is limited.

Relatively significant overdoses (200 mg and 105 mg over 3 days, respectively) were either associated with symptoms of fatigue, weakness and/or diarrhea, or were asymptomatic. In overdose up to 140 mg or an unspecified dose, symptoms of central nervous system disorders (confusion, lethargy, drowsiness, dizziness, agitation, aggression, hallucinations, gait disturbances) and / or gastrointestinal disorders (vomiting and diarrhea) were observed. After taking 2000 mg of memantine, the patient developed a coma for 10 days, later diplopia and agitation. After symptomatic treatment and plasmapheresis, the patient recovered without sequelae.

Treatment is symptomatic, there is no specific antidote. Standard clinical procedures should be used to remove the active substance from the body, for example, gastric lavage, activated charcoal, methods of acidifying the urine reaction, forced diuresis. In case of excessive general stimulation of the central nervous system, symptomatic therapeutic measures should be used with caution.

From the immune system: often - hypersensitivity.

On the part of the psyche: often - drowsiness; infrequently - confusion, hallucinations; indefinite - psychotic reactions.
