It is being aggressively marketed in Europe now, but I believe the FDA is requiring reformulation before it reappears for patients here. It will not be available before 2012. Source: National Parkinson Foundation

BTW, just me being sarcastic with the above post. Not intended to diss anyone's medication. I tried it and it turned my PD into what looked like Ataxia...one movement disorder at a time, please.
