I disolve 4 25/100 tabs, along with 3.75mg of Mirapex, 1.0 mg Permax and 500mg of vitamin C in 8 oz of cold water and drink 1 oz of this solution every 2 hours. I use an 8 oz medicine bottle that my pharmacist sells me for 25 cents. These bottles have 1 oz markings on them. When I'm home I keeep the bottle in the refrigerator and when I go out I carry it and a couple of straws in a "fanny pack" which fastens around my waist. You have to be sure to shake the solution thoroughly before taking as some of the meds tend to settle out I also take Tasmar 3 times a day which I don't put in the solution. I am convinced it gives me a smoother response to the medication and it saves me the hassle of keeping track of all those pills. Ben McKeen 64/11 [log in to unmask]
