Foslevodopa-foscarbidopa (also called Produodopa) has been approved by NICE in England for people with Parkinson’s who have movement related symptons. Has anybody been on it?
Hi Mull
Have you found any info on Produodopa since you posted this thread. If so, I would be interested to read your updates please.
Thank you
Foslevodopa-foscarbidopa, also known as Produodopa, has been approved by NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) in England for individuals with Parkinson’s disease who experience movement-related symptoms. While I can’t provide specific information on whether anyone has been on it, this medication is commonly prescribed for people with Parkinson’s to help manage symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. If you’re considering this medication or have questions about it, it’s best to consult with a healthcare professional who can provide personalized advice and guidance based on your individual needs and medical history.
I tried Produodopa, but stopped the treatment after a month …
