Paul, I think the jury's still out on Selegeline and its usefullness in PD. Some PD experts would strongly agrue with Dr. Iacono on that point. Read a lot of info about it, talk to your wife's doctor and then you and your wife make the decision, It is not a generally accepted "fact" as at least Barb's interpretation of what Iacono said would have you believe.
