Entacapone
Dear all My consultant has prescribed a drug called
Entacapone
. This was in response to me describing the dramatic down period once my Sinement+ tablet had worn off - it is supposed to lessen / even out the fall. Please does any one have any current views on
Entacapone
- and does it work?

Dysknesia
I normally take 2 25/100 every 3 hrs, I tried
entacapone
with 1 and 2 pills worked OK, then I was getting dysknesia more often, cut pill
entacapone
in half didn't help, weaned off
entacapone
. I would get dysknesia occasionally, lately every time I take 2 25/100.

Weaning off pramipexole
After that start
Entacapone
. I’m almost two weeks in. So far my movement is a struggle and I’m thinking when I get to 0.375 1x daily it can only get worse. If I take the supplement Now Dopa Mucana in the morning it helps. Anyone try weaning pramipexole this way?

Balance with dopamine / choline receptors
I tried
entacapone
for 4 days and gave me dysknesia, I even cut pill in half, it seemed worse in the morning , I'm thinking my ER night pill is still in my system. Also I was feeling a wave of depression that I normally don't feel, had anyone had this feeling with
entacapone
. Thank you, Maria

Entacapone/Comtan question
My husband was just given a prescription for this medication to bridge his off time. I’m not able to find a lot of information on it, as far as how well, or not it is working for folks. He is on C/L 4 to 5 doses a day, and 1 Xadago in the a.m. Anyone have good or bad experiences with this medication

For the third time I am trying Entacapone 200 mg .
I now take the C/L 25/100 as noted above along with 1 200 mg
Entacapone

Fluctuating blood pressure - role of P.D. drugs which impact catecholamine production and levels
I am trying to find out if there has been any research into role of the PD drugs which have a direct effect on catecholamines - COMT inhibitors, eg
entacapone
..opicapone , MAOI (B)s eg safinamide rasagaline, and SNRIs eg mirtazapine.

Using natural carbidopa with mucuna
We're thinking of combining it with prescription carbidopa, something like
entacapone
(we, re in the UK), but wanted a last attempt at diy PD treatments, as have worked well for quite a while. Advice from anyone with experience of using mucuna would be appreciated.
