^^^^^^ WARM GREETINGS FROM ^^^^^^^^^^^^ :-) Ivan Suzman 49/39/36 [log in to unmask] :-) Portland, Maine land of lighthouses 69 deg. F :-) ******************************************************************** Hello J.R. Bruman and all, Everyone handles PD differently. For me, a usable agreement among us on the meaning of "half-life" (of a medication) would be very helpful in planning an updated daily schedule for my "salad" of PD medications. J.R. used this term in reference to cabergoline. Can we get a couple of clear statements from those who are "in the know" on what "half-life" means? I have heard "half-life" used several different ways. I think it may mean the predicted elapsed time from the point at which a medication begins to dissolve in the stomach to the point at which half of it has been used up. Am I anywhere near close (sort of like in the game of horseshoes) ? Thank you! Ivan :-)
