Zelapar (selegiline) "I had to stop taking Zelapar because I was having an operation. After a couple of days, the operation was postponed, and I forgot that I had stopped taking Zelapar. Anyway, mid-day one afternoon, I was having a horrible time because it seemed all movement had stopped. The next day, the same. A couple more days went by, and I figured my good luck was up, and it was time for either new medicines or a D.B.S. Then I remembered that I was not taking the Zelapar. Well, I went back to my daily dose, and I am almost my old moving self. Thanks."
