After one month of taking the med three times a day, he became so dyskinetic that we were, once again, afraid his disease had progressed rapidly. When I asked him to relate what he thought was causing the problem he immediately offered that it was the Tasmar. Sure enough. After discontinuing the drug he was back to his 'ole self. But, believing that Tasmar offered some relief from the Sinemet roller-coaster ride, he began taking one tablet at night. He does enjoy a heightened therapeutic effect of Sinemet now, but neither of us is anxious for him to increase his Tasmar dose further. ----- Regards Mary Ann (CG Jamie 19/59)
