I am really new to PD issues and would like to know if anyone is still using Dopavite? I believe my husband will soon be diagnosed with PD and would like to hear something regarding Dopavite that is newer than the last posting. He asked me to order it but I wanted to do some research first.

we are reluctant to take anything with iron in its make up. seems the role of iron in dopamine metabolism as well as neuromelanin is not completely understood, though there is evidence that it is an important element. whether there is a deficit or excess or metabolic glitch in its utilization, I have no idea. we choose to not use it as a supplement.

I am 1.5 years off all PD drugs, including l-dopa. Still have lots of problems but definitely better off than when I was on the meds. I have taken Dopavite since shortly after dx in 2003, sx since about 2000. Took 2 yrs just to get a neuro appt, privately.
The more distance I put between myself and the meds, the more sensitive I become to missing a dose of Dopavite. It is definitely not the whole story, but bottom line remains - don't take meds. |
