Medicine update

Side effects increased by increasing Pramiplex - so have reduced Pramiplex to previous levels

- Syndopa, 125/2 mg, four times a day, every 5 hours - 6:00 AM, 11:00 AM, 4:00 PM, 9:00 PM 
- Pramiplex, .5 mg, three times a day, every 8 hours - 8:30 AM, 3 PM, 10 PM

At this point, increasing both syndopa and pramiplex are increasing side effects - on the positive side have figured out what the max dosage of this medicines is - on the negative side are now out of options.

Medicine update

Side effects have decreased after reducing frequency of Syndopa. As planned before, increased Pramiplex strength yesterday.

- Syndopa, 125/2 mg, four times a day, every 5 hours - 6:00 AM, 11:00 AM, 4:00 PM, 9:00 PM 
- Pramiplex, .75 mg, three times a day, every 8 hours - 8:30 AM, 3 PM, 10 PM

Periods of weakness remain - so next step is probably to increase Pramiplex further gradually till max dosage if current increase does not help.

Medicine update


Medicine induced side effects have increased by giving Syndopa 5 times a day. So changing it back to 4 times a day.

- Syndopa, 125/2 mg, four times a day, every 5 hours - 6:00 AM, 11:00 AM, 4:00 PM, 9:00 PM 
- Pramiplex, .5 mg, three times a day, every 8 hours - 8:30 AM, 3 PM, 10 PM

Will ensure that this brings the medicine induced side effects down and than increase Pramiplex strength.
