Apokyn Injectable -about To Start On It. Anyone Use This Drug?

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭
FTL

My sister is about to start Apokyn which is a rescue drug that is injected( like diabetes’ injectable with small thin needle that doesn’t hurt). It supposed to kick in within 10-20 minutes and last about an hour while other carbidopa-levodopa kicks in ( takes about an hour for that). Anyone have experience with this drug?

Kearney, NE

Does anyone else take rytary and carvadopa/levadopa at the same time. I was in the ER because the medication reaction and they said it was because I was taking these 2 meds together. Just wondered if anyone else is on that combination?

Monique, contact your Neurologist. I assume he/she prescribed the Rytary.
Always ask your doctor first.

Feedback On Using Rytary

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭
Grants Pass, OR

I am looking for some opinions about Rytary. I can't decide whether it is helping me out not. Does anyone take it around the clock out just during the day? How much do you have to take and how often? I also have other conditions that I am medicated for as well. Thank you in advance for all your feedback.
