Actually if you read the abstract of the trial and Teva's commenfs on the trial, Teva cautioned not to over estimate the results, mainly due to the 1 mg/2 mg question. The abstract seemed to me to make a solid case for the 1 mg dosage maybe slowing the progresssion of PD. As best as I can understand it the researchers are confused as to why if 1 mg was good, why wasn't 2 mg twice as good! Heck I don't care why it happened. I just want something that slows down this damn disease, not another drug that alleviates the syptoms and then wears off (not to mention the side effects!)
