Amantadine hydrochloride (AH) was orally administered to 16 patients with Friedreich's ataxia. We evaluated patient response with the functional ataxia scoring scale and calculated a total disability score. The mean percent improvement of the total disability score was 29.5%; for ambulatory patients alone it was 45.5%. No significant side effects were encountered. AH appears to be a safe and effective symptomatic treatment of Friedreich's ataxia.
