It dulled my appetite, in the first year

My experience is the opposite. Intake of Azilect and Sinemet results in slight nausea resulting in gradual weight loss (20 lbs./year).

I haven't had any weight gain or weight loss from taking Azilect.

If anything it has the opposite effect, loss of appetite and weight loss
