Hi Ruth & Judi I have been taking Rytary for about a yeat. It work the best for me, Over the years I have tried a lot. I was taking a combination of Stalevo & Sinemet for years. I was taking these every 2 to3 hours both 25/100mg. The Rytary woks faster & I take it every 3 to 3 1/2 - some times 4 hours. I continue top take Amantadin for the dyskinesia three times a day.

I take 3 capsules of Rytary 3 times a day. It was like a miracle drug for me. I don't think I get any side effects from the Rytary. I barely had tremors but I definitely shuffled. My biggest problem is my orthostatic hypotension which limits my life. It is somewhat controlled with Upsher Smith Midodrin. Sometimes I feel just awful. I was worn out just getting from the car to an MD appointment. Turns out my BP standing was 44/38. No wonder. I'm just lucky I don't pass out. Anyone else have low BP problems.

My husband also takes Rytary. He started at 3 pills 3 x's a day, at 6 hr intervals, but after a year, his off time was occurring earlier, so the neurologist had him go up to 3 pills 4 x a day at 4 hr intervals. He also takes seroquel for anxiety and worry issues but I am now concerned they are adding to side effects - like a quicker temper. We'll see.

Rytary has been a godsend for me. I've been on it for over a year and have had Parkinson's for 12 years. They have tried just about everything on me at John Hopkins this is truly a miracle drug. No Tremors at all when I'm on and absolutely no dyskinesias which I had with all of the meds before. Hail to Rytary and the doctors that prescribe it.o
