Experiences with

Azilect

Does anyone have any kind of opinion or history on taking Azilect? Any info would be great. Thanks.

Hello all! Just started this medicine three days ago and I’m not quite sure what the medicine actually does. If it is supposed to extend The L/C it absolutely does not and quite frankly I’m taking more L/C than I was before and I called the doctors office and hopefully something will pop up tomorrow

Does anyone have any kind of opinion or history on taking Azilect (Rasagiline)? Any info would be great. Thanks.

Does anyone have any kind of opinion or history on taking Azilect (Rasagiline)? Dr. wants to start me on 0.5 mg to start. Any info would be great. Thanks.

I was prescribed Azilect in July of 2020, six weeks after taking it my walking became quite poor and has consistently gotten worse. Does anyone think I can assume it could be a side effect of the azilect?

For those of you who are on Rasagiline, have you noticed a difference in effectiveness between the brand Azilect and generic substitutions? Thank you!

Anyone take azilect later in the day?

He was prescribed Madopar and azilect. He is also doing B1 and a myriad of vitamins. Just seems like he's hitting a brick wall, esp after 3PM and it kills me! Thanks for any advice Cheers Mel

My mom was on sinemet (25/100) 4 times a say with azilect up till September 2020. She switched to rytary 36/145 4x a day. By October, her blood pressure was very low so we added midrodine. We also switched from azilect to xadago but after 2 weeks she had more falls so we switched back to azilect.

I have read a lot of conflicting information about Azilect. Some say it slows progress. Some say it does not. I am not yet on medication.

Amantadine sulphate - I was diagnosed with PD a few months ago (45 yo) and have been on Sifrol, (Mirapex), Azilect and Dekinet (Biperiden)Due to cognitive memory issues my doctor reduced the level of dekinet and it helped. It also slowly led to a regression of tremors and right hand weakness.

In my 5th year and thus far, I’ve been taking Mucuna, azilect and Neupro patch still doing well with slow progression with symptoms only on the left side. I exercise daily work full-time and lead a normal life. I have no off time, my symptoms are pretty much the same all the time.

My meds (a Madopar, an Azilect and a Ropinerole), didn't work at all. I was and remain amazed at the difference between one day and the next. What changed? The only thing I can think of is that for the hour between taking meds and breakfast, I lay in bed and read.

We are also wondering if there are any pwps who have followed John Pepper's example by switching to Azilect. In our case, this requires first phasing out Rytary, and then phasing out duloxetine before starting on Azilect due to contraindication of Azilect with duloxetine.

Started on Azilect and then added 8mg of Requip and I still take these in the morning. 3 years ago added 300mg of Madopar per day but only stayed on this for a couple of months. I'd read about dyskinesia and also heard that Mucuna offered the same relief but didn't cause dyskinesia.

This is a long way of asking if anyone knows about the process of getting of Rasaginline/Azilect? I find it fascinating that depression is listed as a main side effect.

You those of you who got off of azilect did you do it cold turkey? Taper down? And bad side effects of getting off?

Has anyone experienced increased tremors or other side effects when taking Amlodipine/ Carb/Levo and Azilect together.

I am presently taking carb/Levo 1 and 1/2 tablet 4 times a day and Azilect 1mg once a day.

Hi has anyone used CiproFloxacin with Azilect? I have a complicated UTI and need to know if there is any clash between these two drugs. Appreciate to share your info.
