This is my first posting to this list. My wife Donna, was diagnosed about five years ago. Thankfully,her symptoms are still rather mild. She is on Sinemet CR25/100 and Mirapex .125, 3x per day each. Her Dr., Enrico Fazzini, has asked her to participate in a double blind trial for Rasagiline manufactured by Teva, an Israeli Company. The study is under the auspices of NYU Hospital. Evidently, there are about ten Institutions around the country involved in the study. This new drug supposedly smoothes out the "ups and downs", slows down the progression of Parkinson's and allows a lowering of the Sinemet dosage. Sounds almost too good to be true. Does anyone know any more?
