Plendil is a Calcium Blocker. M J Fox site just announced that a 3 year old phase 3 study of another Calcium Blocker called Isradipine was called off because it was not showing any results. Does that mean that Plendil is now out? Who knows. Hopefully we’ll find out soon.

Is there a cooperativedoctors.org out there?
