For Parkinson's Disease "I switched from Azilect in 2020 to Xadago and saw an immediate improvement in rigidity (my main symptom), but noticed it worked for about 12 hours, so I started taking it about 9 pm so I could sleep. In August, my new neurologist took me off of Xadago so I could take Wellbutrin for my depression. It’s been 3 weeks, and my legs are so rigid I can barely sleep at all. The doctor didn’t think I’d miss it by increasing my Rytary, but that’s not true for me. I’m hoping to restart it soon."

For Parkinson's Disease "I have Parkinson’s with variable motor disruption, namely with tremors. I started selegiline, which worsened my gait and caused worsening off time. Once switched to Xadago, I have seen an immense improvement in my everyday function, with reduced off time and no side effects. Dystonia has reversed, and my gait is normal again. Thank you, science."
