Has anybody found a way to reduce dyskinesia without Amantadine?
For many years, sinemet worked fine for me, but now I'm one of those people who gets dyskinesia from it. I've tried different combinations of amantadine and GoCovri (extended release). but it doesn't have much effect. So I take as little Sinemet as I can get away with. First dose at noon. There are

what to do?
a few months ago, I finally decided to try meditation, specifically C/L. I had no reaction to instant release, so we tried titrating up on CR C/L 25/100. I got up to 2 pills three times a day. I was on this dose 3-4 weeks and I happened to have a neurologist appointment. They said there’s no reason to

Night time Hallucinations, a poem composed and narrated by my husband.
My husband wrote this when the night time Hallucinations were present. He found it was caused by an extra Amantadine but reduced it and they stopped! He’s very pleased he no longer sees the dog on our landing at night. Although it was friendly! https://parkinsons.art/parkinsons-art-poetry/sleepless-in-south-woodford-by-john-smith

Ropinirole ( Requip) Ontario Parkinson's
I have Parkinsons and I have been using Ropinirole also known as Requip for about 13 years. It is an Agonist , that helps the effects of Levadopa last longer. I also have been using Amantadine for the same thing but its effectiveness may have worn off. I was doing OK and then the company GlaxoSmithKline

I have intense itching on my back and stomach and toes an hour after taking amantadine and mucuna. I don’t know if it is an allergy. I also have significant Lipoatrophy which seems to be exacerbated with the amantadine and sinamer and mucuna… does this happen to anyone else? What do you recommend I

amantadine, and Lipo atrophy
has anyone taking amantadine experienced lLipo atrophy? All of my fat has disappeared, and my buttocks is flaccid. I read that early antiretrovirals could caus Lipo atrophy, and I wonder if amantadine could be doing the same.

I am taking 2 tablets 25-100 C/L 4x per day and 1 tablet of 50-200 at bedtime. Back in August of this year doctor put me on amantadine starting with 2.5 ml. I was supposed to eventually get to 10 ml, but I never got past 7.5 because of the nausea. It seemed to help a little but I still continued to have
