I saw my Neurologist today and as of tomorrow I'm starting to take Comtan with my Levocarb. What are your experiences with Comtan?

" Hey PhilGS,
I took Comtan for about 7 years and it worked well for me with Levocarb and Requip but I had to stop taking it because I would get in the gap with my insurance and could not afford to buy it. It is very costly and along with all of the other medicine I take some for other health problems. I take 30 pills a day and I got in credit card trouble very bad trying to buy all of this medicine.
But to answer your question Comtan is a very good drug and I am sure it will help you.I wish I could still be taking it but My Doc increased my Requip and it helped some but I do miss the drug.
You will notice a big change in your urination the color is a very dark golden color and it is a mess to get off anything it gets on.
Good luck PhilGS. poppyjohn! "
