I'll let you know in a couple of days. emily ([log in to unmask]) for Mom 76/3 months NY << Hi all ; My mother just started PERMAX at one 0.05 mg. a day, can anyone tell me if they are using permax, and if it helps much ? she also takes 3- SINEMET CR 25/100 a day spaced at about 4 hours. The new neuro that rx'd it, said it will help with, getting up from a chair, and with the walking problem. I asked for mirapex, but he thinks permax will work better on the walking problems.
