Yes I currently am on azilect and it's doing okay for me as I am decreasing sinemet. It allows me some stability across the day when the sinemet ebbs and flows. I tried mirapex and requip and had horrible side effects with OCD shopping. I also tried amantadine which dried me out so badly that I had ulcerated corneas. I read about some others this happened to. Too bad it didn't work Bc it seemed to be a good idea. I also took selegeline without much effect.
In hind sight none of the agonists alone worked since I didn't have PD. the azilect works now because I live in constant withdrawal while stepping down. Azilect allows me to take less sinemet and not suffer withdrawals as severely.
