Re: Urgent request

[Guest guest]

When I switched from Sinemet to Permax and then from Permax to

Mirapex, I just made the switch. As far as I know there is no reason

to " wean " off the other. Neither my Neurologist or GP had me do this.

Perhaps any advice to the contrary is ment for Parkinson's patients?

(Too bad we chased Dr. Levin away at times like this.)
