My dad got the generic C/L often the shape & color changed between 2 or 3 makers. But we didn't notice any issues..
There were posts many years ago about generics having more filler or lesser active percentages.. I think by soccerteses?? I probably misspelled the username..but it is close to that.. you can search for those posts with a name or keyword..
Oh taking any other meds?
After some years we had to drop the add on meds due to the accumulated side effects.. plus they weren't doing any positives by then.
Mirapex (pramipexole) was one those dropped
I think as we age we lose nutrient absorption. ..
That is written about on many website for ageing & nutrition.....
So I assume medication absorption changes too for better or worse..
When pot became legal in Oregon, we asked dad if he wanted to try it or CBD oil
, we had asked his neuro too but she claimed no knowledge on it and PD, so my parents did not want to give it a try.. Anxiety and hallucinations/delusions were a main symptoms by then.. and fatigue..

Thanks, Jo*mar. Yes, thee is always plenty of paperwork that arrives with my meds in the mail from the VA. It's the "government", and they love "paperwork". It's more than I care to ever to peruse or skim over. I have a problem with "paperwork", having worked for government for several years. So, I called my VA neurologist directly with my complaint.
yes, I take several other meds, but none are agonists or PD-related at this late stage. I've been through the lot of them already.
Sorry about your dad. Yeah, it does kind of make sense that pot might not be good for someone who is already delusional and having hallucinations, but it could have a "paradoxical effect". Stranger things have happened.
