Azilect (rasagiline) for Parkinson's Disease "Prior to starting Azilect, I had very limited use of my right arm. My mouth drooped on my right side, and my right arm did not swing while walking. I now have full use of my arm, my mouth no longer droops, and my arm swings. For me, Azilect has been a miracle."

Azilect (rasagiline) for Parkinson's Disease "It should be noted why a patient should stop taking this medicine before surgery. My father went in for a routine cystoscopy and had major bleeding complications. Patients should be made aware that this medicine may CAUSE BLEEDING."

Azilect (rasagiline) for Parkinson's Disease "I had bad results from Azilect. Was in hospital for 2 days and 2 trips to ER within a 2-week time. Had little fainting spells (would have passed out except for the person holding me up). Dizzy, falling. Doctor said it wasn't the medicine, but after stopping it, these side effects went away."

Azilect (rasagiline) for Parkinson's Disease "Before Azilect, I was falling from rubbery legs and freezing about every day. Since Azilect 1 mg, I have had no falls and have started to use a rollator less and work with trekking poles. For me, a miracle drug at this progression."

Azilect (rasagiline) for Parkinson's Disease "I have recently been told I have very early Parkinson's. Since then, I've been on Azilect. I have not experienced any side effects. However, the symptoms (finger movements) have not improved. I have been told that Azilect slows down progression, therefore, alone it does not address the symptoms."

Azilect (rasagiline) for Parkinson's Disease "This drug just about killed me, so be careful. I took it for several months, then I had an unexpected severe reaction. I woke up one morning numb/tingling from head to toe - like when your arm falls asleep. I stopped taking it, it took about 4 weeks before all the tingling finally went away."

For Parkinson's Disease "I have been taking rasagiline for a month. I have not had any problems so far, my energy is better. I have noticed that I walk better, and my left hand, which gave me trouble, I have regained a lot of use back. The only negative is the price, but if it gives me my life back, it's worth it."

Azilect (rasagiline) for Parkinson's Disease "Noticed improvement in my hand stiffness in the first week. It also made me more relaxed and decreased my anxiety. RLS alleviated and I feel better in myself. I’m only in week 2 but hopeful that I shall continue to improve. Only side effects were a migraine on day 3 ."

For Parkinson's Disease "I took rasagiline for eight days when I started having involuntary movements. I went to Patient First to get checked out. They told me to stop the medication. At the time I did not realize I had taken eight pills. I though it was about four. They told me to stop them. I should not have quit them cold turkey. The movements went on for another week. I am also on Neupro and Carpadopa/ Levadopa."
