Anyone here know if Namenda can aggravate a mood disorder - sort've a mild form of bipolar 2? My spouse has been on it for 5 or 6 yrs for MS induced/influenced memory loss/disfunction but during those years has had a lot of trouble controlling mood swings - like every few minutes or hours. He accidentally went off Namenda for a couple days recently and noticed when he went back on that he got the "buzz" (he calls it feeling good but I'd call it mania) that he has associated wtih some other prescribed drugs. His mood is just not under control despite numerous meds to treat it.
I had no idea it could be associated with mood swings but then I suppose that in a susceptible person that anything could happen? Any one have insight into this?
Thx
