<p style=”text-align: center;”>I would say start taking it to get rid of Bothersome symptoms. Don’t increase until it obvious your symptoms are worse. Just be aware of all side effects. When I get the right amount of meds I feel like I don’t have pd.
sorry I didn’t read the rest of the replies.</p> -

Never. Even on a sleeping pill. My system doesn’t like many medications.

Trish K replied to the topic What side effects do your medications have? in the forum Parkinson's Disease Medications 10 months, 2 weeks ago
I get dyskinesia, sweating. I was on too high of a dose and it was terrible 1% addiction side effects. I get unique side effects from every med. my 1% one had to be reported to health canada. I can’t think of what else probably because 5, years in it all seems normal.

I get dystonia. Botox didn’t help. Try artane. Helps but I take a long time to tolerate up dosing

Anyone use. All meds. Levodopa and artane give me anxiety. Trying to curb dystonia with artane but my system takes forever to tolerate even 1/4 of a pill. Very frustrating.
