Has anyone been on Nuedexta long enough to report it effects? Any side effects, (other than the cost of going broke because treatment for a year costs $4,500 to $5,000) My neurologist believes that I will have some time before my insurance company figures out that I am using it off label.

For anyone who cannot take it because of the cost I asked my neurologist if he could have it compounded for me since both of the component drugs are generics and he replied, "great idea."

Any feed back would be very appreciated!
