Newsletter of the NPF support group that meets at Georgetown University
Hospital ( In Washington DC) this is a list of medications NOT to be

Proloxin, permitil fluophenazine
Navane thiothixine
Moban malindone
Mellaril thioridazine

Paxil parixetine

Demerol Meperidene and other opiate drugs
Zoloft sertraline
This is not the most up-to-date list available - I will try and get you
the latest list from the co-ordinator of our support group if you so
desire. If you want it, and it is probably only in hard copy and I'm
not a very good typist, if you want you can send me a mailing address
(privately , if you like, to Frodoq and I promise not to put you on
any junk mail list - wouldn't know how to even if I wanted to) and I
can mail it to you. I am quite concerned that you appear to be taking
medications that exacerbate each other and your conditions. I think I
told you that my daughter may grow up oto be in a similar situation, as
she already has a juvenile form of manic depression and if she is
carrying a gene for PD.....! So I have tried to find out what I can.
Hope you don't think I'm interfering.
