Pulse,
You mention getting a better price through a compounding pharmacy. Can you say more about this? Does the compounding pharmacist simply take selegiline and put it onto skin patches of some sort? How much cheaper is it? Thanks.
Ian> sorry, but Emsam does NOT avoid the gut, far a GI problems. the pharmacist i dislike, of the 2 at my regular drugstore, was right, for once, when he predicted this could - and did happen - to me. oh, boy, did it ever!

> another pharmacist at a compounding pharmacy that i'd switched to for a better price on emsam, said same: of course, Emsam thru bloodstream only, can still cause GI problems. i sincerely hope this applies to GI problems/ meds intolerant (not treatment resistant) folks like me - only.
