We tried isradipine several years ago and it did nothing for us, I hate to report. We did not have any issues with blood pressure before, so we were worried it might cause some issues in that area, but felt the risk was worth it if it helped with the PD. We could not tell any difference after a year+ on it, so stopped using it.

I think since this drug has been out for so long and the news is not new, there are many white ratters who would have been heralding its praises if it really helped in the PD dept.

I'm glad if some PWp report relief from PD symptoms from this drug, but to me it just seems like it's another shady case of grasping at straws to increase revenues.
