Barb, Brig went on Tasmar as well, is just about off of it, but it has been sheer hell. Can anyone tell me why this drug seems to affect a lot of people this way when they try to taper off of it. What is in it to have brought this affect on so many patients? Brig had no freezing before, but now it's here. And I must admit, only because of a friend's advice, did he taper off as slowly as he did, we're talking a month of reducing dosage. I may be crazy, but it seems like tapering off of tasmar took him down a level or so. Gerry
