Rilutek was prescribed for a friend in the UK who is newly (2 months) diagnosed with ALS. He took it for a few days, but felt so "weird", rather dizzy and nauseous, that he stopped taking it. His doctor insisted that he start again, which he has done, but he complains of the same side effects and really wants to stop again. He is also taking lithium carbonate. He just got a breathing apparatus and feels much better thanks to that. My question is-- do Rilutek side effects diminish with time? Has anyone experienced the same side effects? Does anyone report improvement in their condition with Rilutek? Is anyone using lithium carbonate with or without Rilutek? If so, are there any positive results?
