Selegeline

Hi,

I have had selegeline increased from 5mg to 10mg.I have been on the increased dose for nearly a week and my symptoms are getting worse.Can  anyone tell me how long before they saw an improvement in their symptoms.

Thanks Anne 

Hi Anne,

 

Everyone is different but we saw no benefit so OH stopped taking it. Hope you find it better than we did.

Hi Anne,

I find with all these meds that the first week after increasing you do feel worse. Give it a couple of weeks and if no better give nurse or consultant a call before doing anything. 

Hi Benji ,

Now on holiday have put it back to 5mg will up it again when home and take it from there thanks a lot for your reply.
