And at bedtime take 2 capsules GOCOVRI 137mg and 2 tablets at Clonazzpam bedtime and 1mg Melatonin.my complate is abut 2nd dose, I get this repetitive falling down mode . Here’s the kicker, when up in morning j can walk heal to toe and swing my arms like a normal person.but bye 8:00am start to get some hand tremors and bye 9:00 quit . Try to get and walk I need to use my walker, if I don’t I be falling down again again 😧

I don’t take Rytary (I take c/l 10/100 IR), but my experience is similar to yours: I take meds during the day, stopping usually around 5pm. My balance is almost normal when I am “off,” but quite compromised when I am “on.”

I take it four times a day and I think it does affect my balance. Definitely feel it more after I take it like Julie Grace said it seems like the on times are affected more than the ofttimes. I don’t know what the solution is unfortunately. If you talk to your doctor about it please let me know what they say. I haven’t tackled that one yet with my doctor.

[lmtwa in reply to Fishaholic]

No - just tremors (but not bad) I also do a lot of exercise / work outside etc.

[Fishaholic in reply to lmtwa]

Yes I do lot of exercise everyday in the early morning. Then medicine it’s. Bye bye the to exercise .

Hi Fishholic. Good morning. Tthe culprit is most likely Clonazepam. My psychiatrist is firm about the loss of balance due to Clonazepam and refused to prescribe it to me.

No Because I’ve been doing clonazepam for 12 years.
