parkinsons meds not working
going to try to start low dosage c/l again and doctor recommended adding
gocovri
. looks like side effects of
gocovri
are not great. Any advice on what people do when the "gold standard" c/l doesn't work?

Is anyone else trying Gocovri for better sleep?
I've been trying it but I've decided to stop because it's just not helping me. But before I do I thought it would be smart to see if anyone is having better luck. It's too bad it didn't help me because I get it for free and it' costs most people (here in the US) about $4000/mo. But oh well. If nobody

Checking in
He told my dad to stop taking
Gocovri
and increase Rytary in hopes of controlling tremors a little better. We were told that
Gocovri
does nothing for tremors. Will try. I also got an email for some reason today (I was unsubscribed from HealthUnlocked for a while) about Tass gloves.

Has anybody found a way to reduce dyskinesia without Amantadine?
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.

RSO for PD
Ragastaline, Amantadine, Requip, and now dr ordered
GoCovri
- waiting for that to come. Nothing has worked at all so far & the side effects were terrible. Sleep was HORRIBLE on Requip- insomnia, worsened nightmares. His dr doesn’t seem to have any other answers other than… new medication.

Anyone taking GOCOVRI?
I've been taking
GOCOVRI
for a little longer than a year. I take it for dyskinesia and to extend my "on" time. It helps the dyskinesia and helps "on" time a bit. No side effects that I know about. I tried Entacapone before that and it gave me bad dreams.

I must have signed up for the information on a “bad” day (i don’t remember signing up) because i received a call from a very nice man yesterday who spent an hour reviewing my situation and suggested i might look into
Gocovri
or Apokyn for off times and mild dyskinesia…and that he would pass this on to

Rytary in Canada?
I went to see my neurologist today to discuss the possibility of switching from sinemet to Rytary, as well as from Amentadine to
Gocovri
. Sadly I’ve been told that neither Rytary nor
Gocovri
are available in Canada, since they have not been approved by Health Canada.

How many mg of Vitamin B1
He is currently on Rytary and
Gocovri
. These 2 medications do absolutely nothing for his tremors, along with some other medications he tried. He also says that
Gocovri
makes him feel better. I want him to try Vitamin B1 again. He tried it only for several weeks a few years back and stopped.

Ongentys this medication WORKS!
I also take one capsule (137 mg) of
Gocovri
for dyskenesia, a side effect of Ongentys. I was on Selegiline 5 mg tablet daily. Selegiline is a MAO inhibitor. Another enzyme that loves depleting L-dopa. I can say I don't think Selegiline was ever a benefit to me.

Anyone using Gocovri?
I just read about a medicine called
Gocovri
which is "new" and expensive and has no generic equivalent (which my health insurance prefers to prescribe). Has anyone tried it?
