APO Infusion Pump Giving Me Hope - More ON Time - would like to hear from others who have tried APO infusion.
Levodopa
makes me so hyper/wired/insomnia, etc. that I cannot take more than 4 1/2 a day. All other PD meds have a similar effect on me. For three years I have been searching for another medication and am hoping APO is it.

Xadago (Safinamide)in UK.
Xadago (Safinamide) is a promising new MAO (B) inhibitor .In the UK NICE approved its use last May. 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

Parkinson syndrome
I have been treated with
Levodopa
100g up to 5 tablets a day for the last 2 Years. My Neurologue had me undergo a scintigraphie one month ago and the result is that I do not have Parkinson but a Parkinson syndrome. He told me to stop all medication.

Who makes your medicine. Does it make a difference.
I take carbidopa
levodopa
25/100 and it works great. Last week my carbidopa
levodopa
was not working the same and some times not a all. I went one day with no relieve at all. I just happened to notice the maker. It was one that i did not know. There are several different makers.

breathing
Even with
levodopa
therapy the cause of death in such patients is commonly respiratory. Characteristic findings in such patients are a reduction in both maximal static inspiratory and expiratory pressures as well as maximal inspiratory and expiratory flows.

I am new here!
Now I am on carbidopa-
levodopa
10-100 mg. But now since I have RLS so often during the day, I find I have to take up to three of them a day. I am only suppose to take two. It was mentioned in one of the posts I read regarding going to a Neurologist. Should I? tori

Generic Azilect: Side Effect on Carbi/Levodopa?
In the past 2 weeks, the carbi/
levodopa
has been wearing off sooner, and not gradually either. 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?

Prostate Cancer & Hormones - Prolactin
Evolution has given hormones promiscuous roles in the body. A particular hormone may be involved in a number of unrelated functions. Prolactin, as one might guess, is a hormone mostly associated with milk production, but it has various roles in the male body too. In addition, the prostate has prolactin

Quercetin/Bromelain peak tissue absorption time
Even if you just have some experience using q/b along with
levodopa
I'd appreciate any input, especially regarding what seems to have been the best schedule for dosing with q/b throughout your day.

Gap or Withdrawal?
Am taking Carbidopa/
Levodopa
100MG. One and One-Half Tablets daily. I take when I awake at 7:30am, 12:30pm and 5:30pm. I wonder about the gap between 5:30pm and 7:30am? 14 hours. Could it account for symptoms such as sleep disturbances?
