Does Azilect help with tremors?
Just started with
Azilect
. I read somewhere that it does not help with tremors. I have hand shaking mostly right hand and just wondered what results others have had with this. Are there any side effects? Thank you. Wil J

Hi Again
Also I was taking the
Azilect
in the evening and she switched that to the morning. (I know other treatments exist but I love the clinic I go to and I'm playing by their rules alone.) I got my Handy Capped placard so I can use those parking places now.

Xadago (Safinamide)in UK.
It lasts between 6 and 10 times longer in the body than the other MAOIs used for PD -
Azilect
(Rasagaline) and Selegeline. Safinamide is much more complex than either of these other two MAOIs as it also affects sodium and calcium plus glutamate .

Side-effects of New Meds
Five months ago, my neurologist added Carbidopa/Levo to my
Azilect
and Ropinerole. Everything became easier for me, and everyone notices my more fluid movement. What they don't see is my jaw-clenching and persistent hand and foot movement. I'm guessing these are side-effects of the new meds.

Azilect - Neuro suggests I could start it if want, any thoughts?
Both these I can live with, however my Neuro is pushing me towards one mg of
azilect
, suggesting it will change my life! I'm reluctant to start meds if I can manage without. anyone have experience of reluctantly starting
azilect
and how was it!? Ta

Generic Azilect: Side Effect on Carbi/Levodopa?
Now, I'm wondering if the name brand
Azilect
fomulation helped sustain the CD/LD in a way this generic cannot. Anyone else taking CD/LD and the generic rasagilene noticing this?

Dyskinesia
I am 71 years old, been diagnosed 5 1/2 years Started out on
Azilect
and Requip. Never really felt great on this but my neurologist wanted to keep me on the least amount of medication for as long as possible.

Muscle Relaxer?
I have PD and am currently taking
Azilect
, Ropinerole, and Carbidopa/levidopa. I am very active, but lifted a heavy object yesterday and have painful muscle spasms in my lower back. Can I take a muscle relaxer - Carisoprodol - which is leftover from a spinal fusion I had before going on PD meds?

Sinemet or Not???
Doctor has me on
azilect
and pramipexole. He has wanted me on sinemet for quite some time but I have prolonged due to worry of long term side effects. Biggest affliction is the stiffness and rigidity. Is it worth taking and are others helped by it?

Diet restrictions on Azilect?
My husband is now 4 months diagnosed with PD, and has been taking 1mg of
Azilect
for 2 months. We've heard and read conflicting dietary restrictions, including that dietary restrictions have been lifted?!! Would love to hear others experiences and how to handle foods.

CL and dyskinesia
I have a family member who is petrified that he will get dyskinesia if he takes CL for a long time...so He has gradually stopped taking CL and is trying
Azilect
. Anyone have any words of wisdom for us?

Non tremor dominated prognosis
I responded very well to
Azilect
but it's effects seemed to lessen after 6 months. So I added 6 mg of Requip but after only 3/4 months, my slowness returning with force.

Generic rasagiline (Azilect) prescription filled, seems about the same
I was worried when I got to the pharmacy this past Tuesday and they told me they had filed my prescription with a generic form of
azilect
. After taking it for a couple of days, it seems to work no differently.

Azilect
When ones stop taking
Azilect
, do you recommend stopping it cold turkey or gradually like one day on and the next day you off.? I'm almost out of my samples.
Azilect
has helped but the generic may not be out until after Feb. Just wondering.
