Rytary
My doc thinks I might have better success with
Rytary
than with Sinemet, which brought on a lot of foot contortion and rigidity. Have you tried
Rytary
? If so, what was your experience?

Don't keep fixating on dopamine to alleviate your lack of energy.
Obviously, all one has to do is look at the long term deterioration of PD patients on Sinemet, Stalevo or
Rytary
on this forum or any other PD forum and realize dopamine is not the only factor influencing PD. As to fatigue and what to do about it in PD, I have my opinions.

Parkinson's RX not helping
Shaking of Left Hand, Wrist, Thumb, Fingers, not necessarily at the same time, is resistant to RX Treatment with Mirapex, Sinemet,
Rytary
, Gabapentin and others. Cramping is significant problem and shake can go from severe to violent.

Tremor dominate and freezing... Does anyone have issues with tremors that turn into an off frozen state?
My tremors are gone completely for 4 hrs when my meds are working (I take
Rytary
145mg 4 caps every 4-5 hrs) and then my tremors come back drastically esp on my dominate side, then after about a 1/2 hr they will stop suddenly and I feel frozen.

Rytary and Sinemet together
Has anyone tried Sinemet and
Rytary
together? If so, what are your observations of these two Parkinson’s meds that aren’t generic?

To Go or Not to Go - plea for community help
All these issues are being addressed by medication such as
Rytary
and Zoloft as well as Propranolol, Trazodone and to some extent with a new diabetic medication: Bydureon (exenatide) that is supposed to help Parkinson’s patients. My tremors are well controlled with
Rytary
and Mucuna.

Rytary vs Sinemet
I’m going to switch from
Rytary
to Sinemet. For me ,
Rytary
is bad news. Afraid it would cost me my marriage. Good C/L 50/200 is N/A in the PNW. Gotta go name brand in my opinion.

Watch with multiple meds reminders
I am taking
Rytary
every 3 hours. Does anyone know of a watch that would allow that many alarms per day? I would prefer one that vibrates rather than a loud alarm. Thanks for any recommendations. Hope you are all having a good day., Corinne

Finally got our Inbrija prescription. 2 capsules at a time seems too strong ( PWP is on a low dose of
rytary
due to DBS). Jury is still out. Anyone else try it yet?
