Ivan, Here's a few thoughts about pwp's having restful sleep. Eldepril (selegeline) interfered with my sleep. When I was taking it, I found it safer to take my two daily doses at 6:AM and noon. One of my symptoms is incontinence. My urologist recommended I drain my bladder with a catheter as close to bedtime as possible. The alternative, for me, is several nocturnal trips to the bathroom and/or wearing large incontinence pads. Good luck with your column. -Geo.
