That may be well and good, but nonetheless, Tolcapone
HAS demonstrated a capacity for irreversible fulminating
hepatitis for some.  There is no indication as yet as to what
may predispose an individual to repond negatively to that
drug.  Our neuro has strongly discouraged the use of Tasmar
for Barbara because she's had biliary and other hepatic
problems in the past.  Also, she could not afford the weight
loss of blood every forthnight.
Be well my friends,
