Re: To Our NURSE re Sinemet and Depression

[Guest guest]

Hi ne,

Thanks (and also to ) for responding to my

question. My question was prompted by two sources:

1. my psychiatrist (treating me for depression)

mentioned it - somehow he heard of a possible link;

and

2. an online friend forwarded a newsletter (from a

heath organization - I will try and find it) that went

into all the drugs used to treat depression and causes

and symptoms of depression, etc. A number of

prescription medications were mentioned as possibly

causing/exacerbating depression. Sinemet was not

mentioned by name but anti-Parkinsonian drugs (as a

class) were mentioned.

Thanks again and it's good to know there is a nurse

in the group!
