Patient Stories
I finally got in to see my primary care doc to ask about changing my blood pressure med to Isradipine. He was not familiar with it at all. So I told him what I had learned from these posts about the med and its possible benefit for Parkinson’s. He went and checked the information on the computer and after reading it thought it was fine to try it. So starting tomorrow (my pharmacy didn’t have it in stock), I’ll be one more PWP trying the Isradipine/Azilect combo in hopes that it will help me like it has some of you.
