Hi Jeanette,

>> I have titrated up to .25mg 3xs daily with moderately fair results.  <<

3x0.25mg/day is a low dose. In general the effective dose for young onsets
is around 3x0.50mg/day or more. So IMO you are simply undermedicated. I
suggest you discuss with your neuro to gradually increase the Permax up to
3x0.50mg/day. If that doesnt help or keeps causing side-effects, THEN you
might consider bringing in the Sinemet CR.

Hans.
