Leanne and Michael asked: >Can anyone tell me if they know of any reason why a PWP on sinemet could not >take Epsom Salts (magnesium sulphate)? Does anyone know of any possible >interaction/side effects? Some time ago I asked this question of our primary care doctor, who is a board certified Family Practice physician with a considerable number of PD patients. He said it was a perfectly safe product to use for constipation relief when taken as directed. The package includes directions for dosages for adults and children for constipation relief. He reminded us to be sure, however, it is labeled USP (U.S. Pharmacopea), i.e. safe for human consumption. Martha Rohrer (CG for Neal. 78/13) [log in to unmask]
