My father took Amantadine for his Parkinson's disease and a few weeks after starting, went in to neuroleptic malignant syndrome. He was hospitalized for 10 days, and was unresponsive for 4-5 days. As an elderly man, he did not exhibit the exact symptoms of NMS, but showed almost all of the symptoms on a decreased level.
