Please make sure you're aware of the most current information regarding Azilect/drug interactions. I take Celexa 30mg daily (an SSRI) for depression and anxiety; my MDS had no problem with my taking it plus Azilect. I also take a small dose of Inderal once or twice a day to prevent internal tremors and social anxiety. Are you also on C/L?
I take Temazapam 15-30mg, suppose to be for sleep problems which i have really bad but have also been using it in the daytime for severe anxiety that reeks havoc on my PD . But remember its from the benzo family like ole famous Xanax and Ativan, both very addictive and a living hell to ween off of. I was taking Xanax long time ago for general anxiety, doc at the time was handing them out like candy. I took .5 mg a day when I started taking this poison, three months later I needed 2.5mg a day to have it give me any comfort, BAD IDEA,,, took me 4 months to ween off this pretty small dose and the side effects were the most horrible nightmare I have ever experienced as a human being.
Jump to Present day,, i started taking 10mg of Temazapam for insomnia one tab before bed, now 2 months later I need a 30mg tab to get any sleep at all, and this past week 30mg is starting to loose its effect and now doc has added the next poison to the mix called Ambien 6.25mg dose, but it did not work to well , so doc dug into his trick or treat bag an pulled out a 12.5mg Ambien ER, which works, but barley gives me 5-6 hours sleep a night as long as I take 30mg of Temazapam with it(Yaaa you heard me straight!)........Bottom line is, I'm in deep people, these drugs will lead you down a bottomless pit head long into a hellish withdrawal battle in the end that I personally would not even wish on my worst enemies. PLEASE! PLEASE! Read up on the internet all about the horrors of this benzo family of poisons before placing a single tab in your mouth, its a one way ticket into a brick wall...most dangerous members of this poison family by name are: Xanax, Ativan, Klonopin, Temazapam. shoot these members in the head on site!!!!!!.......GOD SPEED! GOD BLESS!
I refuse to take any benzos. I may just continue the CBD oil. It works well, just need to take it every few hours. I take thc tincture at night for sleep. Works well
Dr. Mischley recommended HEMP Max with VESIS RB by Douglas Labs. It really works!
I was diagnosed with PD ten years ago
I started using cannabis six years ago
along with C/L and Mucuna puriens
quit taking azilect and selegiline
My cannabis research and personal experience
leads me to believe that I need both CBD and THC for effectiveness
the CBD vs THC discussion
is a legal issue not a medical therapy issue
for lawyers and politicians to discuss
not medical professionals
for medical therapy I have become more concerned about cannabis strains
Indica vs Sativa as detailed here:
dopedirectory.com/marijuana...
I use Sativa during the day
reduces pain and stimulates physical exercise
Indica helps relaxation, reduces tremors and helps sleep
Luckily I live in a state where THC cannabis is legal
Hi.. just sharing, I got the extreme height of anxiety and depression when I'm taking Azilect and Ropinirole.. hallucinations to the nth power. I accidentally finds out the difference when I went to my OB and said I should stop taking Azilect and Ropinirole if I wish to get pregnant and just continue on levodopa Carbidopa alone. It took me 1 month or more when I finally visited my neurologist. He advised me to continue with levodopa alone and took antihistamines whenever I have difficulty in sleeping and magic... though I'm not yet pregnant but I am at my normal state ever with levodopa and Carbidopa alone..
The thing that has helped my husbands anxiety the most has been taking Hardy’s daily essential nutrients. Within 3 days he felt so much calmer. You may have a deficiency in one or more nutrients. It’s certainly worth a try
Azilect increases anxiety? Never tried it so I dont know
