Additional information

There is no data available on the toxicity of amantadine hydrochloride on fish. The assessment of fish toxicity is based on data obtained for the similar substance amantadine, in a flow-through short-term fish test performed according to the APHA standard method, using the fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) as test organism. An LC50 value of 25 mg/L was derived for 96 hours exposure (Geiger et al., 1986).
