I have that same problem and is very annoying. I believe it's called nocturia. How many milligrams and how often is your husband taking pumpkin seed extract? Thanks

The brand we buy is from Amazon. uk . It is Pumpkin Seed Extract 2000mg from supplemented.co.uk. He just takes one for bed at around 9.30 to 10pm but I understand you can take one in daytime also.

Thanks for the tip about pumpkin seed extract being good to help with bladder frequency during the night. I'm going to try it to see if it will help me.

My husband has the same issue. He is up 4 or 5 times a night. Was wondering if you tried it yet and the results?

He was down to twice a night but last night three times but he is only taking one tablet . He is trying two tablets tonight. They are not expensive and they are herbal so its worth a try.

Thanks for the information. I take prescription generic Detrol LA and it is very expensive. It also is know to affect people cognitively, but getting up 7 times a night does too!

Is your husband taking other meds for Parkinson’s? Any side effects!
