hI Ron, and the FAHRS, I use partial CR's , and partial 25/100's. Usually 1/2 of a Sinemet25/100, crushed in mouth, then OJ or citrus-based soda, then, about 2/3 CR immediately, and so, the combination works for me. I get longer on-times, and yet, what works for me may not work for you... I also use Eldepryl and Tasmar. Ivan :-) On Fri, 22 Oct 1999 08:36:12 -0700 "Ronald F.
