Factor, S.: Acetazolamide Therapy of Menstrual-related Fluctuations In Parkinson's Disease; Movement Disorders 1993;8:240-241 Acetazolamide (a drug originally developed to counter CO2 imbalance in acute mountain sickness) at 500mg/day "dramatically" improved monthly symptom fluctuations in a premenopausal PD patient. At time of writing, improvement had lasted 2 years. The article also mentions success of acetazolamide (Diamox) against a different case, of Essential Tremor. Further, controlled, trials are recommended. For a paper copy, send me a business-size SASE. Cheers, Joe J. R. Bruman (818) 789-3694 3527 Cody Road Sherman Oaks CA 91403
