Dear friends,
My mother has been taking sinemet in liquid form for the last 3 years.  Her
original dosage was established with the help of Dr. Montgomery in Arizona.
She now finds that the meds are not as effective as they had been and is
looking for some insight on the best approach to adjust the medication.  Is
it better to increase the amount of sinemet dissolved for the day or is it
better to taking the current strength and decrease the amount of time
between drinking the medication?  Does anyone have exprience with taking
Permax in liquid form?

Mom's current meds are as follows:

Sinemet   5 25/100 pills dissolved in OJ every 24 hours.
Amantadine  100mg 3 times a day
Eldepryl  5mg once a day
Amitriptyline   10mg at bedtime
Best regards

Bill Bell
