Sherry, When I was diagnosed in 1998, my neuro put me on 1200 I.U.
Vitamin E (3x400 I.U. spaced throughout the day). My other meds have
evolved from Eldepril to increasing amounts of generic Sinemet, currently
enhanced by Comptan. I'm still taking the same amount of Vitamin E, on
the theory that it will slow down the progression. The information I'm
sharing is presented as my regimen. You and your health care provider
should decide what works best for you. All the best, Geo.

I am sure it is okay to post info that might be useful for others.

I think Ms. Kathrynne of asktheDietitian recommends about 400 IUs of
Vit E /day.
However Dr. Lieberman does not believe in Vitamin E's effect on PD.
I take usually 200 IUs or occasionally 400 IUs of Vit E / day.
