and it's expensive because it is new but we have no problem with food interaction. My husband believes it does help, he went off it once to see what happened and did say he felt worse (placebo? impossible to tell, but we acknowledge that possibility).

He takes it at night, which makes his natural dopamine last longer and he can get better (and I use that term loosely) sleep. Whether it is neuroprotective, its big claim, we are skeptical but hopeful. Also, our neuro told us that it is really almost the same thing as selegiline, but you have to take a whole lot more selegiline than azilect (rasagiline) to get the same therapuetic effect.

One thing that's a negative: you can't take any cold/cough meds because they have these heinous warnings on them. We try not to get sick, and instead gag down that herbal blend MyTea. Nasty, but it is keeping both his allergies at bay as well as our kids constant barrage of germs they come in with.
