agonists have their side affects for sure and usually don't offer as good a symptom relief as C/L but i'm not going to discourage anyone from trying/adding them. if they work with tolerable side affects then there is something to be said for taking an agonist 3 times a day with reduced wearing off vs every 2-3 hrs with C/L or stalevo and waking up every morning off.

i've just met too many people in +59 with diagnosis 10+ years doing ok on C/L plus an agonist, most of the time with COMTAN, some in parkinson's spinning classes, to totally discount the value of an agonist in increasing ON times.
