Low side effect profile, but I do end up with some moderate dyskinesia at times. I take no other PD drugs concurrently other than 1-2 Sinemet over night.

There have been some concerns over cost and from what I just read on the Abbvie site; they will offer it at no cost or otherwise financially assist patients who qualify. My only quals were that I respond to levodopa, and I did not want brain surgery.

If anyone is interested in more info or has more specific questions, I will be happy to answer here or by PM.
