A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone else take rytary and carvadopa/levadopa at the same time. I was in the ER because the medication reaction and they said it was because I was taking these 2 meds together. Just wondered if anyone else is on that combination?

Feedback On Using Rytary

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am looking for some opinions about Rytary. I can't decide whether it is helping me out not. Does anyone take it around the clock out just during the day? How much do you have to take and how often? I also have other conditions that I am medicated for as well. Thank you in advance for all your feedback.

Monique, contact your Neurologist. I assume he/she prescribed the Rytary.
Always ask your doctor first.

Drug Cost After Medicare

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

Are there any resources for medication prices after 65 and on Medicare? We have a drug plan, but Gocoveri & Rytary are brutal costwise . I have looked at the Good Rx in addition & to reaching out to the company of each drug. I am afraid, I am learning that if you are on a government program ( Medicare ) the company's help in copay is not allowed. Crazy.. Any leads for me to help with reducing an extremely high drug cost monthly.. Lyn
