have you tried rasagiline [sp?] the newer 'version' but it's a different inhibitor. you probably know that.

i felt clearer minded on just a half tab of azilect a day but stopped it to take nortriptyline. i took selegiline at the begining for about 6 years with no problems. i think peg might still take it . same claim with rasagiline - it's neuroprotective.

tried azilect, started with .5mg, then 1mg for 2 weeks, felt worse after 3 weeks. clincher was vivid dreams, actually broke a lamp next to my bed fending off a "bad guy". might have done ok on .5mg but not going to retry right away.

btw, selegilene also seeing price increases as less suppliers but i assume with azilect less demand. i'd say less mfg's but with generics, some drug companies are just resellers, they don't actually mfg the drug, just repackage it.

teva used to mfg generic sinemet or at least sell it.
maybe they still do
