Was it you, ST, who said we only get 20% of ldopa that we eat? If that's correct, inhaling it will vastly increase how much of a 100mg dose gets to the brain, I would think. So while it may cost more, if we could get by with taking much less, because much less is needed because more gets to the brain via an inhaler, it may end up not being that much more expensive after all. Hope their Phase III is in our area[/QUOTE]

Dose level for the Phase 2b started at 35mg and increased to 50mg. Volunteers self-administered as desired with an average of twice/day.

The phase 2 had multiple site locations. I would imagine the phase 3 will also.
