Good morning everyone,=20
My neurologist is strongly encouraging that I switch to Azilect as it has s=
ome record of slowing the progression of PD. (I'm 38 and recently diagnosed=
 with YOPD) I'm a little freaked by all the contraindications and side effe=
cts and am having difficulty finding unbiased consistent information on the=
 drug. Has anyone out there taken Azilect? Does it indeed slow the progress=
ion? Any thoughts or opinions?
Thanks,Jen=A0 =A0=A0=A0 =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 =A0=A0=
