DRUG

Citicholine

Patients will receive 1 gram (2 vials of citicholine; each 500 mg) every 12 hours given slowly intravenous over 10 minutes for 7 days then oral form of the drug will be used. Participants who can swallow will receive 500-mg (5ml volume; 100mg/ml) oral drops (syrup) twice a day. Participants who cannot swallow will receive the same dose as oral drops syrup of citicoline through a nasogastric (NG) tube or percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube in a total dose of 1000 mg/day for the remainder of the 30 days study period.

DRUG

Amantadine

Patients will receive 200 mg of amantadine sulphate in a 500 ml solution every 12 hours by slow intravenous infusion over a period of 4 hours for 7 days then oral form will be used. Participants who can swallow will receive two 100-mg tablets twice a day. Participants who cannot swallow will receive the tablets of amantadine through a NG tube or PEG tube as 400 mg via crushed tablets with a 25-mL saline or water flush for the remainder of the 30 days study period.
