I hope this works for you.  Other people have had good results.  My mama had
a bad reaction to it.  She had two pallidotomies this year and her only PD
symptom that was not greatly alleviated was the rigidity/painful dystonia in
her neck.  When she was put on Comtan her neck almost went back to the way
it was prior to the pallidotomies.  It was scary for her and the rest of the
family.  Since getting off the Comtan her neck has gone back to "normal".
We are now trying Requip.

Subject: COMTRTAN (ENTACAPONE) seeking advice


Edith is about to start COMTRAN (in addition to Atamet 25/100  5 times

Has anyone tried this drug? Anything to watch out for?  Any helpful advice?
Many thanks.  Ralph.
