Default Good news, bad news
After reading the company precautions on rytary, I wonder how many will qualify to take this drug. Not my wife who has had PD for 13 years and has very serious hallucinations.

read the insert for carbidopa/levodopa, likely very similar warnings.

if water came with a FDA required insert we likely wouldn't drink it.

will be very expensive.

I was on an analyst call with the company. They still haven't release pricing information but some are predicting as high as $12/day. It will be interesting to see what the health insurers do in terms of coverage. Wouldn't be surprised to see some refuse to cover the drug.

i know advanced pd'ers on generic requip, stalevo and amantadine. if you can take rytary and eliminate the amantadine and/or requip, then insco's would go for it.
$9 is similar to stalevo's price and you eliminate COMTAN side affects and insco's pay for stalevo.

whether a patient wants to wean off of an agonist is a big decision imho.

wonder if impax will conduct some trial on that switchover?

Thank you

FRom what I can tell the 50/200 doesn't work all that well. My MDS states she has seen that in many patients
