Hi all,

Any feedback would be great.

Stay safe

🙂 As you can see there has been a clinical trial, but it doesn’t look completed.

🙂 Yes Jacqui, there are a number of trials re ataxia. You can log onto clinicaltrials.gov and search for ataxia to see what’s happening.

Hi Jacqui-A. I've been taking Taltirelin now for about 1 year. As everything I've tried, it starts out amazing, but then tapers off. I am unsure if it's more of a placebo effect? But I do know, every time I think about stopping taking it(its rather expensive), I stay off of it for about a day and definitely feel a lot more disorientated so I jump back on it quickly. But it has definitely not stopped my progression. Maybe. slowed it down? It would be nice to have someone smarter than me measuring this, but I always been concerned about it becoming unavailable so I don't tell too many people. If you can afford it, I'd say at least try it? :)

Unsure if it truly works, but as we don't have any other solutions, I would say if you can afford it, it wouldn't hurt to try it, right? :)

Best.
