Pains in Hip, Knees and Thighs
Background - I have ben taking Sinemet Plus for about 6 years, Amantadine for about the same and
Azilect
for about 4 years Question - As I have seen many references to pains in the hip and knee (like arthritis) and thigh (like you've been overworking them) I wondered if these pains are a side effect

Am relieved that DaT confirmed PD so I wrote a little blog
I am now taking
Azilect
and my tremor is better, also I haven't fallen once. While am not happy to have PD, I am happy to have an answer. So I wrote this to share. Life isn’t always easy is it?

Azilect and Wellbutrin
Anyone taking
Azilect
with Wellbutrin XL? I think my husband is in need of an antidepressant and I have read that Wellbutrin is one of the ones that may increase dopamine. What other ones are you taking and how are they working for you? Thank you. This community is a blessing and so are all of you.

Hello from a new boy
I put that down to seeing a marvellous Neuorlogist in Cambridge (not my home town) who recommended
Azilect
as an adddition to my Sinemet Plus and Amantadine and to change my Ropinirole to Requip XL.

I worry about the effects of Requip.
I ve been on Requip for about 9 monthe, and just added Azilest, but even before the
Azilect
, I would get vert tired about an hour after I took my pill, 3 mg 3 times a day. My normal bp is about 125/65.

Azilect (Rasagiline)
Selegiline and rasagiline (brand name
Azilect
), are generally given in the early stages of PD in order to slow the progression of symptoms of PD.

Which anti depressant I can take with Azilect?
I've had a horrendous weekend and I was pinning my hopes, long term, on taking citolapram but this morning the PD nurse rang to say they'd changed thier mind and I can't take it as I take
Azilect
(rasagaline).

Has anyone read the medical information released recently about Azilect? Because of the cost, I have decided to discontinue taking it.
It has been recently published that after extensive research, there is not a big difference (enough to claim it as an advertised medication) in how
Azilect
truly slows down the effects and symptoms of Parkinson's. Very expensive medicine to take and I have made the decision to no longer take it.

a new medication changed my daily life
During a visit with my PD doctor I got a new medicine,
Azilect
. This medication has helped me so well that I feel a big positive improvement and the cognitive functions are much better. I'm glad I join this study but wonder why I did not receive this medication early. Regards Mr Day Sweden

Do you take Azilect?
I am really interested in hearing people's experiences, both good and bad with
Azilect
. I assume this is a fairly new drug and, of course, may not be suitable for me. But at least I will know. Thanks.
