Hello @tllaes
I noticed that it has been over three months now since you switched to Rytary. I hope that it is still working well for you.
As you are comfortable sharing more, I would be interested in knowing how you are feeling and managing with the Rytary.
Is the "on-time" still showing an increase?

Yes I am still taking Rytary and it has really helped my off time. I will see my Neurologist on Wednesday for my every 4 month check in. My question to him will be: Why do I have such a good "on time" after taking my morning dosage but my afternoon dosage which is the same doesn't give me the same energy lift? I take 3 capsules 8 hours apart beginning at 6:00 am, then 2:00 pm and then at bedtime 9:30 pm.

My sister has just started Rytary and neurologist is still trying to find the best dosage for her. Recently because she fell and went to the ER, the neurologist there prescribed for her to take Pyridostigmine (brand:Mestinon) 60 mg , to taken half tablet 3x d.
Does anyone here take this medication which is essentially prescribed for Myasthenia Gravis?
