> > As far as Memantine and other drugs are concerned, I think dosing is crucial. There are many that believe that drugs are often dosed too high. There are also some that believe that with many drugs it is just a matter of finding the right dose over a period of time in order to find therapeutic success.

> Fair, but if the mechanism of action itself is faulty, as may be the case with the primitive NMDA antagonists we currently have to work with, then it doesn't matter what dose you use--the drug will still not succeed.I agree. I guess we could make this argument for all of today's primitive psychotropic medications(meaning they are all primitive and archaic at this stage in the game).
Fortunately, all of the psychotropic medications available today end up have a fair amount of therapeutic success in treating many-as is the case with Memantine.
